Fall Officials,

We hope this email finds you doing well.  Our office has been in constant conversation during these unprecedented times and the information we have been gathering changes quite often.  With that being said, we have decided to delay the opening of Fall registration for officials until we have a better understanding of what the Fall sports season will look like.  We are also working with each State Rules Interpreter (SRI) to create our own sport-specific test (only 50 questions, as opposed to the 100 previously). 

The new opening date for Fall Officials’ registration is open now.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we get everything in place for season 2.

Take care and be well,

OSAA Staff
