Rankings - B Program Officials

• Any B Program officials (ref rank of 14 and lower) that would like to move up to a higher ref or lines ranking shall put such desire in writing to the Executive Director responsible for Rankings ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ). Write a detailed letter indicating what ranking you have now and what you would like to be considered for. After receiving such written ranking request we will send out a supervisor to assess you at your present ranking. If the feedback from that supervision is positive and merits upward movement, we will put in a formal request to the Executive to move you up.

• The formal process to move someone in the B Program to a higher ranking is done at the monthly Executive meeting. Once we approve the change in your ranking we will forward the information onto the assignors. Note: this process could take up to two months to show up on your assignment sheets, so patience is a required. If the assignors don’t get the info in time to assign you the new level of hockey, they can and will try to still use you in turnbacks. Remember, your involvement with the Zone is measured in terms of years and not months, so relatively speaking this is a fair and timely process.

• Any B Program officials requesting a change in their ref rank to Bantam 1 or Midget 1 can send their written requests to the Director of Rankings ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ). We will forward the request to the appropriate league supervisor for assessment according to the process outlined above. These categories (Midget 1 and Bantam 1) are supervised under the Supervision A Program – if there is an opening you will move up upon approval by the Senior Hockey Advisory Committee. Contact Dan Morris or Burke Wilson for information about that Committee.
