Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of those lost and hurt in the traffic bus accident involving Farmingdale Schools’ students and faculty.

From September 17 through September 24, it’s Officials Appreciation Week in New York.

Sponsored by the NYSPHSAA, the purpose is to recognize the hard work of all officials across every sport.

Section XI appreciates the work and dedication of the men and women who work in every county contest. We appreciate you!

At RefReps, their mission is guided by a passionate desire to properly develop the next generation of great sports officials!

Comprised of comprehensive officiating education courses and interactive training video packs, the RefReps Officiating Education System™ will help you create a modernized educational experience. Equip your school or organization to teach the pillars of officiating with our standardized online course curriculum with instructor guides, support materials, assessments, example videos, and more.

Paired with our innovative POV video training packs, your learners will see the game through the eyes of the officials, practically apply what they’ve learned, and build confidence before ever stepping out on the field, court, or mat.
