NJSIAA (New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletics Association), aware of the challenges facing youth sports officials and dedicated to continuing to create a healthy, competitive environment focused on sportsmanship, is helping address this critical situation by launching a recruitment initiative. This program will provide a $300 rebate to any new official who joins an NJSIAA-recognized officials chapter and successfully completes all NJSIAA requirements for certification. The rebate is available to new officials in any NJSIAA-sanctioned sport and is intended to cover all or almost all start-up costs for a new official, including registration and uniform purchase.
