Title: TASO Football "Auxiliary" Membership...
Post by: Official_21 on November 26, 2011, 05:14:45 PM
I am planning on going back to school next year and start a new career in healthcare (Planning on getting certified as an EKG tech). With school and possibly a new job coming, I won't have time to call football.

I was thinking about becoming an auxiliary member of TASO football/my chapter, but what exactly does an auxiliary membership qualify you to do and will it really help me remain active in the chapter?

I would have emailed the appropriate chapter contacts, but both gmail and my comcast email are acting a bit strange this afternoon.

TIA for any insight that can be provided.

From what I've gathered online, you're covered under TASO insurance, but cannot step onto the field as an official.  In order to be a timer or other auxiliary officiating member, you must be at least an aux member.  Not sure if this gets you voting rights in chapter matters or not.

Best regards,
Brad

Thanks Brad, that's what I was thinking too, but wanted to make sure.

That will help me keep in the loop as it were as I start my new healthcare career after school  :)
