Do you have a passion for sports and want to get involved in an organized sports community? Are you an ex-high school or college athlete that is looking to get back in the game? Are you interested in supplementing your income? Have you ever considered officiating a sport but are intimidated by the learning curve or don’t know where to start?
The purpose of this book is to help new sports officials navigate through the early process of becoming a sports official. If you are interested in officiating, this book will help answer the “who, what, when, where, why, how” questions you may have.
This book will put you on the fast track to becoming a sports official by teaching you the principles and practicalities behind officiating. You’ll learn how to connect with your local association and start the rules study and certification process that, regardless of the sport, all members of the officiating community must navigate. The learning curve is steep and may be intimidating, but the practical knowledge this guide imparts will help you quickly absorb what you need to know as you begin your officiating journey.
There is no “one size fits all” approach to officiating, but there are some immutable tenets of officiating that all successful officials embrace. This book is a compilation of hundreds of hours of self-study, research, and conversations with veteran officials from multiple sports.
High School Sports Officials are in high demand across the United States.

Praise for this guide:
“Becoming a good official is like building a house. How do you build a house? You start by building a strong foundation upon which everything else is constructed. Reading this book is a positive first step in this process.”-Randy Campbell, NCAA Division I Football and Women’s Basketball Official
"This book does an excellent job compiling the essential tenets of what a new sports official needs to know. The content is valuable for all officials, regardless of experience. The "art" of officiating is rarely discussed in formal association meetings and this book has great insights. This summer I plan on recommending this guide to our new football officials."-George Demetriou, 2014 National Federation of State High School Association Hall of Fame Inductee
