You will also receive an email verifying completion of the course. Coaches - please give your Division Coordinator or Coach Administrator a printed copy of the certification. Referees should give the printed copy directly to the Referee Administrator or may give a copy to the coach to turn in with other team paperwork. The Division Coordinator will then pass the paperwork along to the Referee Administrator.
