Official Training and Education
The Tyler Chapter of Football Officials take their time on the field seriously and want to do their best. To do this, there are all types of training available in addition to just reading your rule book.
The Tyler Chapter offers specific training for new and second year officials, officials who are or want to be Referee’s, breakout sessions for specific positions as well as online zoom-type sessions and on-field training.
If you want to get better, we’ll make sure you have the training you need!
Give it a try…
