North Florida Referees Association

We are the North Florida Referees Association

We are recruiting officials for the upcoming High and Middle school season. Registration and assignments are made through Arbitersports.com. If you are new, you'll need to set up an account. We'd love to have all of you, and your referee friends join the association. Please help spread the word. HS/MS games are some of the best pay around! Games are 5:00 PM through 7:00 PM Monday-Friday. Travel is necessary because we cover many surrounding counties sometimes up to 90 minutes one-way.

Registration will open in mid-July for next season, and will remain open, without penalty, into mid-October.

I'm interested in becoming a referee

You can contact John Williams by email or phone if you need any assistance or have any questions.

We are looking forward to a new season. There are lots of positions to fill and there will be plenty of games for referees.

Here are some helpful tips to get you across the finish line:

• Rules exams have no time limit.
• No make-up exam offered.
• Officials can save and exit the exam as many times as necessary. Once the "submit exam" button is clicked your test will be graded and your one (1) attempt is completed.
• Exams that are incomplete once the deadline passes will not be graded.
• Failure to receive a 75% or higher will result in being eligible for Sub-Varsity assignments only. Individuals who complete their exam during the first window and meet all other requirements will be eligible for postseason assignments.
• After the first exam window all officials who did not complete the exam will become ineligible. However, an official can regain their eligibility back by completing the exam during the second exam window however, they will not be eligible for postseason games after the District Tournament.
