What kind of games will I officiate?

All NVFOA regular members and trainees work on the field for games at the recreational, middle school, freshman and junior varsity (JV) level. In addition, all members will also be assigned to work in the booth as Electronic Clock Operators (ECOs).

• First year trainees will work games at the recreational, middle school, freshman and JV levels. This is so you can gain valuable field experience in applying the rules of the game and in using NVFOA mechanics. First year trainees will also be assigned as ECOs for varsity games to allow them to observe an experienced crew and to gain experience working in a varsity crew environment.
• Second year trainees work the same types of games as the first year trainees. However, based on their previous performances in training and based on the needs of the association, second year trainees may be assigned to fill vacancies on varsity on-field assignments.
