The 2024-2025 school year is quickly approaching, and as students get ready to return to their studies and activities organizers are working to make sure events are set to run smoothly.

Michael Moritz is the secretary treasurer for the Mid Kentucky Officials Association. He says the organization is in need of middle and high school football referees.

“Our numbers have been going down over the last few years, and we really are in need of as many people that are willing to be out there on a Friday night or a Thursday night or whatever night of the week it is that they’re playing,” Moritz said.

Mortiz says getting started as an official is an easy process, with those interested needing to purchase their equipment and begin training via training sessions that get started July 13.

“What they need to do is call Andy Strain,” Moritz said. “He’s the KHFAA assigner for our region. His number is 270-272-3205, and you can contact him via phone or you could even just show up on Saturday, July 13th at 9 o’clock at John Hardin High School. That’ll be our first training session for this season for all of the officials.”

Moritz says the sooner you sign up the better in order to get training requirements in and to participate in preseason scrimmages to get ready for game days. He says officiating is a great experience.

“I’ve been doing it for 25 years and it’s been a lot of fun for me, and it’s fun to be out there with the kids on a Friday night in a real tight game, things like that, so it’s been very, very rewarding, and if you have that niche, it can be as rewarding for you as well,” Moritz said.

Contact Andy Strain or visit the KHSAA officiating website for more information.
