Local Officials Associations

Officials are encouraged to become members of a local officials association. Officials who are not members of any local officials association shall pay $10 to the secretary of the local association at each local rules discussion meetings attended. Each secretary will record the attendance of all officials that attend a meeting. An official who is a member of a local officials association is not required to pay a non-member fee in order to receive attendance credit.

Current officials can locate Officials Associations in myOHSAA by going to the Officiating Directory and selecting Local Association Secretary under the title of the sport you are interested in.

Local Association Secretary and Officers

Each officials association has an administrative officer – the Secretary. The Secretary is responsible to list meeting dates on myOHSAA, credit official’s meeting attendance on myOHSAA, be an expert on OHSAA administrative requirements and serve as the primary contact with the OHSAA office. The role of the Secretary is to be the “go to” person for officials who need help. Please log onto myOHSAA under the Officiating Directory to find local secretaries in your sport and district.
