Officiating Camps and Clinics

---

Last updated January 13, 2025

Football officiating camps are a fantastic way to get additional training, rules and mechanics work, and snaps in, all before the fall football season is upon us.  They are also a great way to get exposure if you are interesting in advancing beyond high school football, such as DIII, DII, or even DI levels - if that is your goal, make sure you are mentally and physically ready for the challenge!  You can certainly still attend camps with a focus on improving your officiating abilities and knowledge; it's not just for those wanting to advance beyond officiating high school games.
