Many thanks go to the scorekeeper clinicians.
They are Kelli Auletta, Larry Liden, Kevin Ludlum, Jan Bowser, Debbie Reed,
Scott Master, Julie Briggs, Corny Galdones, and Tom O’Connor. Also,
thanks go to Greg Barber who stepped in to help me grade tests at the Fairfax
clinic. I owe a special thanks to Arlene Geppi who has secured at
least eight sites for the hosting of Junior clinics.
We are going to be instituting a new certification
process for Junior scorekeepers. See the article which follows.
The goal is to improve the efficiency of our scorekeepers so that all matches
run as smoothly as possible.
