Here are 5 Things to Know for the upcoming high school season, including FHSAA registration, ID badge checks, and hydration tips.
- FHSAA officials’ registration is now open.
Early Bird registration is $45, a $10 discount on the regular cost. You can register by logging in to your Arbiter account and then clicking on the FHSAA Central Hub. Click on the “REGISTRATION” link near the top of the page.
2. Renew your Expiring ID Badge Now
Background checks and ID badges are good for five years. Your ID badge has the date it expires on it, underneath your photo. This summer is the perfect time to take care of renewing it. You can find all the information about the background check process on the NFSOA website: click here.
3. Pre-season Meetings in September and October
We will hold two preseason meetings, one in September and one in October. Dates will be announced in early August and will be added to the calendar.
4. Rule Changes Available For Review
If you want to get a head start on the rule changes for next season, you can download the NFHS rules change presentation. The NFHS Rules app and the Soccer Guide/Comparative Study of Laws and Rules have NOT been updated with the new rules. We expect these updates to be complete in the next few weeks.
5. Find Your Next Crew Member
