Many readers will remember that in 2016, MSSA's Thomas Brown (of All Stars) was selected to go to IeSF's Referees Course in Yinchuan in China. Not only did Thomas excel during the course, but he too ended up being the head referee at WCA's Grand Finals which were held in the Olympic Tennis Stadium in Beijing.

With the demands for developing referees, IeSF's Board has decided to create ‘Referee’s Commission’.

  7. Create a hierarchy for Referees to be used in IeSF Championships
Thus IeSF has requested all member federations to nominate a person that they feel would be suitable for the position of Chairperson for the commission. Each member federation may only nominate one person for such position which is to reach IeSF's Secretariat before 30 April 2017

Such nomination must include:
