Hello Guest:

Thank you for the message.

There will be a rules clinic to bring everyone up to speed on the new IPF Technical Rules passed at the IPF Congress this year in Newfoundland, Canada.

Now, the compulsary clinic which you mentioned, to recertify IPF Category I and II referees, can only be held at either an NAPF International/Regional or IPF World Championship.

Depending on time allowances, I am going to try and have one of the IPF Clinics at the Arnold Classic this year.
