    Sports Officiating is in Crisis

    There have been fewer officials every year for over a decade ...

      

    The Sac-Joaquin Section is HUGE ... There are nearly a quarter-million (250,000) students in our section … From a marketing standpoint, that’s a HUGE audience … If we tap – even a fraction of it, we can make great progress … 0.1% of that audience is 250 people …

    Why is recruiting sports officials so difficult? … 

    • Timing … Everyone      thinks about officiating after games start … Official's training occurs      much earlier … Our fall sports training will start about 07/01 … That’s      nearly 2 months before the first games … We need help getting the word out      earlier …
    • “Side Gig” Competition … 30 years ago, sports officiating was a predominant way      to earn extra $$$’s … It was the original “side gig” before this      employment field got its name … Since that time, the internet has helped      many other, more flexible income streams prosper … Several delivery      services allow flexible, part-time hours on demand with high compensation      & less effort training than sports officiating …
    • Volunteer Organizations … The official’s associations are      volunteer organizations … They receive no funding from the section or its      member schools … They are self-funded training organizations … 
    • Sportsmanship, Fan Abuse & Many Years of Training      … 

    How can you help find more sports officials? … Help us publicize our group startups before each season starts … If we can get timely information to our school families concerning training, we can more efficiently guide interested community members into officiating … 

    SO … Here’s the answer … Just "1" …  Just “1” more official for each sport will make a huge difference ... Given almost 200 schools in our section, imagine what nearly 200 more football officials section-wide could do to keep all "Friday Night Lights"games covered with full crews ... 

    WE NEED YOUR HELP to get the word out ... Together we can do this & make a BIG DIFFERENCE ... 

      

    How can you help?

    · Include this & other upcoming fliers in your parents periodic school-wide email distributions ...

    · Post a flier to your athletic department website ...

    · Email fliers to alumni & former parent distribution lists …

    · Provide fliers to graduating players as well as their parents …
