Game officials is open for your 2019 referee recertification. If you have already completed your recertification and supplied any necessary updated clearances, please let me know so that we can determine why your certification is incomplete.

To recertify, please log into your Game Officials account. Go to COURSES > REFEREE COURSES > 2019 Grade * RECERT > Choose a course that is UNLOCKED.

Please note: if you were born anytime in 2001 you will need FBI background check to certify for 2019. No Exceptions.

If any of your background checks have the year 2014, you must obtain the appropriate new clearance(s) for 2019 BEFORE we can approve your recertification.

2019 badges will only be mailed to the referee who supplies a self-addressed stamped envelope to the SRC.

Mailing Address:
SRC <include your course recertification #>
82 Lookout Avenue
Monongahela, PA 15063

Badges will not be sent to assignors.
