Even if you have never played a sport before, you will be taught how to officiate it. Each year, the department hires approximately 400 student officials for the Intramural program. Officials in each sport go through a paid training program. Training occurs over a two-week period before play in that sport begins.
Training includes classroom sessions and on-site clinics.
In the classroom, sports rules and officiating techniques are discussed and reviewed. In flag football and basketball, training also includes officiating in a pre-season tournament. For further information, please call Mike Waldron at 845-9672.
