Referee shadow protocol established

Because of confusion so far this season with the Referee shadow assignments, a protocol has been created after a meeting with the Alpine Officials Committee and Troy Price.

It is important that the new referees, TDs and Chiefs of Race read this document. In addition, I have attached the form that needs to be completed by the mentoring referee. If the Race Organizers could have this on hand, that would be great.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
