Officiating Courses
Curl BC offers two levels of officiating courses to train officials for regional and provincial events. Courses can be requested by a host comittee based on the officiating requirements presented by the curling association in charge of the event, the availability of trained officials in the community, and the needs of the committee. Each level consists of a six-hour course and a practical component working for six games under a certified level 3 head official at a fully officiated event. (Note – levels 4 and 5 are a part of the national Curling Canada program.)
