Non-Skating Official Guides

I've launched a new project: a suite of manuals for tournament-level non-skating officiating. Check out Non-Skating Official Guides (manuals for PBM and Jam Timer written so far!)

My goal is to create resources that bridge the gap between scrimmage-trained officials and officials who succeed in high-level play. I start from and defer to all WFTDA, MRDA, and JRDA resources, pulling together the key processes and procedures for each role with direct references to the source. Over and above rules and procedures references, I discuss common conventions and the reasons behind them, and aim to empower officials by teaching why we do specific things.

These manuals are community-editable, Creative Commons-licensed, and available on the web, in printable PDFs, and in EPUB format. Edits, contributions, and constructive critiques are all welcomed!
