Did you play sports growing up? Your athletic career doesn’t have to end there.
Being an official allows you to be a role model by demonstrating qualities such as impartiality, fairness, courage and leadership. Officials help protect the integrity of the games we love by enforcing the rules of play.
Being an official is a great way to give back to the game that gave you so much while staying in shape and earning extra money.
