Once you complete the steps below, please email referee@unitedfa.org and let her know whether you are a Certified Referee or are joining the UFA Referee Academy Program.
The following information will help you set up your profile in Game Officials with UFA, help answer questions, and help us with your game assignments. Please take some time to become familiar with the system, and make sure you’ve updated the information noted below.
Under the My Info section you can elect to receive game notifications via text message – this is very helpful.
To enter your availability, you first select the date, and then the above screen will be displayed. You can either select “All Day”, or you can uncheck that and enter your specific timeframe. In this example, we would start you with a 9:00am game (you need to be there 30 minutes before your first game), and you would be finished by 1:00pm. If you have any specific notes that you want me to see for a particular day you just need to check the box that’s next to “Show advanced Options” and then enter whatever specific note you want me to know. Perhaps you’re only available to work at one park that day – just list the park.
