This Course is now postponed
Due to current government guidelines I’m afraid to inform you that the Into Officiating course on 5th April 2020 is postponed.

A new date will be organised in due course when there is more certainty. Candidates that have paid via Bacs can request a refund, via cheque or the funds can roll over to the next course. If you have paid by cheque, these have not been cashed yet, so cheques can be retained for a future course or ripped up. Please could you advise what you wish to do. 

Once again apologies for the inconvenience, but the safety of delegates and tutors is our top priority.
