Providing well-structured, safe and fair competitive events
One of XCSO’s roles on behalf of all clubs is to manage officials development. Officials are essential to providing well-structured, safe and fair competitive events. Officials development is closely coordinated with Nordiq Canada and is in the process of transition and improvement.

Mentorship Program
We are excited to welcome back the Officials Mentorship Program. The aim of this program is to provide professional development and mentorship opportunities to Ontario’s race officials. This will facilitate growing the pool of officials at the club as well as at the provincial level to support race organizations. Through increased collaboration and knowledge sharing, XCSO aims to improve the officials’ environment while increasing connections for those involved. This program provides an opportunity for officials to share experiences, learn in different environments and race venues, apply knowledge in different roles at races in Ontario and become acquainted with various clubs and their venues.
