In the world of high school sports, there’s a concerning shortage of officials across various disciplines. From football to lacrosse, the dwindling numbers of referees and officials have become a pressing issue. The primary reasons behind this shortage stem from the treatment of officials, the cost and requirements for clearances, as well as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these challenges, efforts are underway to recruit and retain more officials, including marketing campaigns and junior officiating programs. The goal is to address the root causes of the shortage and ensure a robust pool of officials for the future of high school sports. If you’re interested in becoming an official or have questions about the process, resources are available through the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association website.
