Do this for ALL the job codes you have hours for If you have an error message you need to contact Andy or Zach immediately. This happens if you approve your payroll before 12:00 noon on the first business day of the month You will have to come in and sign your time sheet Read your emails carefully from Samantha Game Duties 1. Arrive 15 minutes early to your game. You will be scheduled fifteen minutes prior to, so if you aren’t there by your scheduled time, you are late and will be subject to disciplinary actions. 2. Get your equipment and look the part – nothing is worse than an official who comes running onto the court trying to dress themselves and then realizes they forgot their whistle. 3. Hold a proper captain’s meeting – It is important to pass along important information to the captain’s during this meeting, relay sportsmanship expectations, and answer any questions the captain’s may have. This should be thorough but short and sweet. 4. Officiate the game to the highest level possible. No matter how bad the game is, treat it like it is the best game of the night. Even in blowouts, there are things you can work on and learn. Take advantage of non-competitive games to work on your skills, positioning, mechanics, communication, and teamwork. Don’t ever take plays off to watch other fields/courts. 5. Complete score sheets at the completion of the game – make sure that the score is correct and the winning team is circled and each team has a sportsmanship grade. Sign your names to the card in the proper positions. 6. Sportsmanship grades at the end of the game. Don’t forget to assign sportsmanship grades for the teams at the completion of the game. These are very important for the Competitive Sports Office. Paperwork is also needed if there were any situations on the court that hour. Make sure to complete ejection reports, injury reports, incident reports, and whatever else is needed prior to leaving for the night. Get your partners to help complete reports with their perspectives as needed. 4 7. Taking down courts. You are required to stay and help take down the courts, return equipment to the storage closet and pick up trash after your last game. You may not leave until the Competitive Sports Supervisor releases you at the end of the night. DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT TELLING THEM. 8. Other duties as assigned – Don’t be eager to do the minimum and then fly off the fields. If you want to advance in the Competitive Sports Program, show your dedication and desire to help out by assisting whenever possible. Don’t be surprised if you get asked to stay and officiate another game or two if someone doesn’t show up for a shift. That is a great way to pick up extra hours and get more games on the next schedule. Protests During games, there may be times when a call is protested by a team. This is okay and not something to get upset about. Teams can protest anything they want, that doesn’t mean they are correct and that your decision will be overruled by the Supervisor. Here are the steps to handle a protest: 1. You make the call you think is necessary for the situation, making your decision based on the circumstances of the play only. 2. The team feels you are incorrect in your decision or enforcement of the foul/call. They declare their desire to protest the decision. They can protest any call they choose, but your judgment calls are infallible and cannot be overturned. The team must declare their protest prior to the next live ball (either the ball being put back into play, the snap, the pitch, etc.) If they wait a few plays and then decide, it is too later. They must protest prior to the next live ball situation. This includes foul vs. no foul, in bounds vs. out of bounds, etc. YOUR JUDGEMENT CANNOT BE PROTESTED. It is not up to you to tell a team they can or cannot protest a call. 3. They must call a timeout to protest. If they don’t have a timeout, they can still protest; but if they are wrong, they will receive a technical foul. Grant them the timeout and then call the Supervisor to the court. 4. The Supervisor will listen to the protest, confer with the officials, and make a decision. That decision is final. If it found that the officials were incorrect, then the mistake will be corrected and the game restarted, the team gets their timeout back. If the team was wrong and loses the protest, the game is restarted as is and the team loses their timeout.
