OUR STRATEGY

We’re offering a 4 x 4 intense officiating training session (no cost to the veterans), which is 4 hours x 4 consecutive evenings (Tuesday – Friday leading up to the event). The trainee then becomes certified as a “Protect the Game” official.

Protect The Game donates the officiating gear (gently used) and an officiating shirt emblazoned with the Protect The Game patch. You begin by officiating a younger age group game (or games), paired with an experienced official on the Saturday of the event with the potential of working Sunday. You’ll be paid once the event has concluded. Training sessions will be sport specific (baseball, fastpitch, volleyball, basketball or lacrosse) and held in the same area as the event; we will accept 10 trainees per session.
