Appreciate that and have a further update: Now been told I can count my previous games towards my promotion so both a relief but also another reminder of how unnecessary this whole episode has been as feel the momentum has been effected and also the double promotion I had hoped to achieve is...

Thanks alot. So frustratingly RDO says he can't find previous application. I have been back on emails and have confirmation email and also can see on the Google forms what specifically I selected. I did tick the "do you want to be considered for womens pathway" as I didn't understand at the...

Thanks Alot James. Update : I have had it confirmed that I am indeed already a level 7 and can apply for promotion as of today. So I feel vindicated atleast there. Next thing is to check whether my previous application in the summer was incorrectly stopped by this super mentor. I don't want...

I will. Thanks

Really appreciate that mate. Unfortunately I have finally offloaded via email to the man in question. With RDO already tagged in email. I've made sure I've not been insulting but have definitely got a lot off my chest. He's gone down the route of "if you don't want to follow my team's advice"...

Absolutely, I understand.

Thanks for the reply. And I am trying and failing to get hold of RDO for some days. No doubt this is all rather boring to read so I won't post again.

I am so sorry but now he has put this in an email. "All I can do is when you start refereeing again I will organise another experienced mentor to visit a game to see if your skills have improved enough to become a Level 7 referee ." I have refereed 30 odd games and he is claiming that I am...

I couldn't agree more. I've relished each one. That wasn't the point of the post. The point is I am concerned there is an individual who is having too much power in the route I take and also proving to be a negative influence in general.

Ah think you may well be correct on the mid-season promotions. ... annoying

Then there was some confusion when I said I thought I was already qualified and he looked into it and sent me this : "Right you have now given me the full information i can help you more. When you passed through the course you should have started emailing me your appointments so I could...

Just looking back through emails and this is what I got early on. Seems as though he's saying that I needed 5 mentored visits to even become qualified as a level 7 unless I'm reading wrong? "Once we have the approximate 5 mentor visits completed & I am happy to pass you forward for your...

I made sure I logged games on full time . But obviously never filled out the form as such. I'm not even sure I have as of yet.... I'll message RDO

Bumping this if okay. Do you guys think it's completely unrealistic to go for a 3W after only 6/7 months reffing. I know ideally etc but could I give it a shot?
