Welcome!

Officiating football is a highly rewarding and fun experience.  There is the challenge of officiating games at the intensity of the high school level or the enjoyment of the beginning youth leagues.  You will find the camaraderie fulfilling and the friendships lasting.  We hope you will take that next step in becoming a football official.

Classroom Instruction

Picture
Beginning football officials go through extensive expert training by highly qualified football officials to prepare them to officiate at all levels of football.  There is classroom and on-field training.  The goal is to eventually have every official prepared to officiate games at the high school level.  Class is held on Monday nights with twelves meetings plus make-up meetings stretching from May until October.
