About Us
The Northern Virginia Football
Officials Association, Inc. (NVFOA), is a non-profit organization
established to assign its members as officials and promote the game of
football at the recreation, middle school, and high school levels
throughout the Washington Metropolitan area.
Our Members
Although our members receive
a fee for their services, our main function is the training of football
officials in the implementation of the mechanics and rules of the game as
set forth by the governing bodies, including the National Federation of
State High School Associations (NFHS). The NVFOA is a member of the Virginia
High School League (VHSL), headquartered in Charlottesville, Virginia, with
reciprocity in Maryland, Washington DC, West Virginia, and North Carolina.
Sportsmanship Awards
Sportsmanship ratings are assigned to each team by
the NVFOA crew. Overall team ratings are then summarized and compared
within the individual districts or conferences. The top-rated
teams for sportsmanship in each conference or district for the past
season are listed here.
Officials Wanted
The NVFOA is continually seeking
new members to join our organization. We seek individuals, male or female,
who have reached the age of 18 and have a desire to be a part of the most
exciting and popular scholastic game in America. This participation can be
in the form of on-field officials or electric clock operators. Experience is
NOT a requirement. We have a highly successful training program that covers
every aspect of the game of football. If you have the time to commit, we
have the resources to teach and develop you as a football official. Training
information and application forms are available here.
