What’s Up, Chief?


Tim Kelly, coordinator of college offi cials in Illinois, spoke at the 2014 US Lacrosse National Convention about what it takes to be a crew chief. According to Kelly, a crew chief:


• Is responsible for the conduct, appearance and performance of all offi cials.


• Is a leader, communicator, educator and organizer.


• Has the passion to want to offi ciate the game for the right reasons.


• Has command of the game, outstanding people skills and the ability to communicate effectively.


• Believes and promotes the team concept.


• Is a positive role model for his crew and other offi cials.
