The registration for officials opens up on June 17th at 8:00am
Seminars fill up quickly, so do not wait until the last minute to
sign up for a seminar. If you wait too long, and you need to go
to an in person seminar, you may have to travel. The sooner
you register the better chance you have to get into the seminar
that fits your schedule.
There are significant changes to this next season’s registration
process. Please read through this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HuMAUzcewY0lxr9V4fteX7lct4u_Jx8M/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=108987847409223634618&rtpof=true&sd=true and direct any questions to:

Registration for the upcoming season opened nationwide at the end of July, so you can now register to become an official for the 2021-2022 season.
You need to complete the following steps to become an official:
Once you have successfully completed all these steps, you will be registered as an official and may then officiate games. Please make sure that you let Mike Hester (mhester@borgindak.com) know when you have completed the requirements so that we can add you to our list of available officials.
The OYHA/MWC has implemented the following policies regarding referee pay:
24 hour cancellation pay—if a scheduled game was not cancelled within 24 hours of the start time, the referee still gets paid.
If one referee has to do a game by themselves, the referee gets paid 2 times pay scale since you are covering for both officiating spots.
All games officiated at Ozaukee or Winter Club Rinks will be paid via Direct Deposit. If you work games at West Bend you will be paid through them via paper check.
REFEREES:
NOTE: It is important that all game reports be made as soon as possible while all information is fresh in the officials’
mind following a game. Please have all game reports submitted within 24 hours of the end of a game.
Incident/Game Reports are filed on the WHOA website under Game reporting tab on the home page. Game Reports are not to be filed using the USA Hockey Reporting System at USA Hockey.com. All Wisconsin Game reports are to be made on the wihoa.org website.
If you have any issues with this or any questions, please contact Mike Hester directly at mhester@borgindak.com or call Mike at 262-215-2050.
To All Association Members:
We strive to have the best trained officials and work diligently to make sure that we are calling honest and unbiased games at all levels. We also realize that not everything that happens prior to a game, during a game, after a game, in a locker room, or outside the rink area is an incident that can be seen, and actioned upon by an official.
That is why we have created the Incident Report Form below that allows, coaches, spectators, players and even officials to notify the committee of actions that you may have observed that you feel need to be known to the committee.
