For officials
Officials say when they can work. League admins assign from people who can make the game. Reports lock when filed. Every item here is planned.
Coming after launch
Coming after launch
Everything on this page is a plan, not a built feature. Here is what we intend to build.
Two sides
The app shows “Referee,” “Umpire,” or the word your sport uses.
Bulk assignment
A rules engine drafts an official for every slot. No AI is involved. The admin reviews every row before anyone hears about it.
Each pick says why, like “Maria: Grade 6 referee, available, 2 games this month versus Carlos’s 4.”
Lock the picks you want to keep, then re-run only the rest.
Nobody officiates their own team. An official can ask never to work their home team’s games. Two officials who should not work together are kept apart.
Slots the engine cannot fill are listed, each with its reason.
Officials see nothing until the admin approves the draft.
Sun 09:00 · Westgate vs Harbor
No Grade 6 referee is free at 09:00.
When plans change
The system tracks each answer, so nobody relies on a text thread.
No answer by the deadline marks the assignment No-answer and alerts the admin.
A moved game sends every assignment back for a new answer.
If an official drops out, the admin hears at once, and the game shows a “find a replacement” banner.
A nightly check flags any assignment whose credential has expired.
Reports
The report records the result, cards, and incidents in the same format every time.
A report card appears when the game ends. Reminders follow, and the admin hears if it is a week late.
A later fix becomes a dated, signed amendment. The original stays visible.
Cards roll up per player for the season, so nobody counts by hand.
Players and captains do not see reports in the first version.
Yellow card was #7, not #11.
The original report stays visible above.
Limits
The first version leaves these out.
There are no rate cards or payouts in the first version.
Officials cannot claim open games in the first version.
Credentials are records the league keeps. We do not verify them with outside bodies.
Notices go through the app and email.
Need it first?
We will build officials when a league asks for it. Tell us your sport, how many games you staff, and how you assign today.
