Clinics

There are three kinds of clinic meetings.  In the first column there are clinic meetings geared to more advanced topics (IAABO Clinics).  In the second column the clinic classes are geared to a more basic level.  This is an excellent place to sharpen up your knowledge of rule situations that may appear on the state exam.  The 3rd kind of activity is SC High School League.  The info in this column is about High School League requirements.  These requirements apply to all HSL-registered officials.
