To the seniors graduating this year, do not walk away from this sport. Everyone who has ever wrestled understands it’s one of the best sports ever, and that it’s importance goes beyond what we see on the mat for competitions. Wherever you are, we need you in order to keep this sport alive in our great nation. I call on you to take the initiative to become a wrestling official! Talk to a wrestling official in your local area or contact your local officials association to start the process. Our referee numbers are dwindling. Without young men and women like you stepping up to become referees, we see the end of this sport within a generation https://form.jotform.com/240504711048043

Please if you are planning on officiating this season get your license now! On the job training at Great Crossing in Georgetown on 11/18! https://khsaa.arbitersports.com

Wrestling Officials Needed for 2023-24 season

Soccer games are starting to be canceled across the state due to the low number of officials. Lets not let this happen to wrestling. You can register for your liscense at https://khsaa.arbitersports.com From a soccer assignor in Western KY: This is breaking news for many but at the same time not surprising. I am the Assigning Secretary for Region 1&2 for High School Soccer. This week due to the lack of number of officials and lots of games being scheduled, games will be canceled. Monday 3 games for one school have been canceled JVB/VB/VG; Tuesday 4 games at 2 schools JVB/VB & JVG/JVB; and Thursday 3 games at 2 Schools JVG/VG & VG. The demand for referees is high for this area and is both physically and mentally demanding. These kids NEED individuals to volunteer and work these High School games. If you are interested please reach out to me. It’s not too late. Feel free to share -

Correct youth and middle school are used as training grounds a lot of times. That's were we loose the younger officials

Couldn't agree more on having coaches licensed! I understand the programs that have 1 or 2 coaches. But the ones that have 4 or more, have them get their liscense. Only if they work 1 or 2 events all season it makes it that easier to get events covered. When youth and middle school took off 20 year ago or so we saw a huge decline in younger officials getting on the mats. They went into coaching instead. We need younger officials now more than ever. But we cant have youth, middle, and high school coaches screaming and yelling at them. Running them off and leaving a bad taste in their mouths. There will be multiple events canceled due to lack of officials. Already having a few a season right now.

It seems the sponsorships have gone down in Wrestling. I remember years ago they would sell sponsorships on top of each scoreboard. At $200 a side that would have been an easy extra $2400. I am sure they could sell them for even more. Seems like there could be more sponsorship opportunities it an arena to help offset those costs. I know we are in a digital age but do they even sell programs any more? That was a huge money grab. Every parent would buy one because their kids names were in it

It's because the time requirement is not in the book on bringing a wrestler back to the mat. So should a stall call in the heavy weight finals match happen in regular season but not in the state finals? Just being devils advocate here. People ask for it to be called the same way all season, but when the call is made in the finals match, it shouldn't be called because it's the state finals? I have seen Dennison make that same call all season long, in December, January, and state finals. Thankfully the officials that were working this weekend have all been there before and have called high level matches all season long.
