THE OFFICIAL REFEREE'S CLINIC ON THE ART OF OFFICIATING COLLEGIATE WRESTLING
BY
JIM RAMIREZ

(Witness the popularity and demand of why so many state high school associations from coast-to-coast have called upon Jim's expertise to be their featured clinician)

Purposely designed to educate the novice and veteran referee with proven quality tools on how best to handle the unpleasant situations with tactful mannerisms.

"A must attend clinic for all referees wishing to polish their officiating skills"

There's no wrestling referee's clinic in the nation that makes you get on the mat with simulator videotapes of call after call with clear instructions, sound techniques, and evaluations on takedowns, escapes, reversals, near-falls, penalty points, and disqualifications that purposely get referees to apply the correct ruling application of the penalty chart, enable them to get into position to utilize proper mechanics, and make the correct judgment call with split-second decision-making capability.

 

IN ADDITION, we have some helpful information provided to us by the Arkansas Activities Association regarding interpretation of wrestling rules. These files are in Adobe PDF format.
