Officiating Performance Standards - *** IMPORTANT ***
Click the link below to view the Officiating Performance Standards. With the return of the OSSAA Observation Program, OSSAA evaluators will be using these standards to evaluate individual and crew performance. These standards are to be used consisently throughout the state by all football officials. Failure to follow these standards may result in a negative performance evaluation.
GTOA Important Forms
Below, you will find important forms for use during the high school football season:
NOTE: Print the crew card templates on heavy cardstock paper (dual side), and then cut as necessary.

This is VERY IMPORTANT!! If you do not enter a report for each game, your crew does not get credit for working that game and it can affect their rating and classification!!
