WCOA New Official Basketball Application

Are you interested in officiating basketball in the Florida Hillsborough or Pasco county areas? The West Coast Officials Association provides referees for all middle school, JV and senior high school games in these counties, as well as various high school summer and recreational leagues. All applicants must successfully complete a three day training clinic before they will be assigned games, which is offered free of charge. If you are interested in joining our organization, please complete the form below. In addition, all officials are required to take a FHSAA national sponsored rules test yearly. Per state guidelines, you must be at least 18 years of age to officiate in Florida, although mentor programs are available for younger individuals.

All New Official clinics for the 2007-08 season and association meeting dates will be posted in Arbiter, as well as on the basketball page. The application process includes registration with the WCOA plus fee paid to the treasurer, registration with the FHSAA plus fee, the state mandatory finger printing and background check, and purchase the proper uniform including jacket. All meeting dates will be published on the web site. After the season begins, assignment schedules will be available via the Arbiter software scheduler.
