Employment Opportunities

If you like sports and are looking for a fun on-campus job, then working as an intramural official is the job for you. Officials are needed for nearly all intramural team sports.  Schedules are very flexible. No previous officiating experience is necessary though general rule knowledge/playing experience is helpful. All necessary training is provided.

We are currently fully staffed for the spring 2012 semester. Any people interested in officiating Indoor Soccer, Basketball, Ice Broomball, Volleyball, or Softball should click on this link to enter their information. If we end up needing more officials for any of our staffs we will contact you to arrange a meeting.

 

Frequently asked questions by incoming potential officials:

Q: Can I play as well as officiate?

A: Yes! Most of our officials participate in the sports in which they officiate.

Q: Am I guaranteed a job as an Intramural Sports Official if I attend the informational meeting?

A: After attending the General Officials Meeting, all interested individuals are welcome to attend the sport specific training sessions of their choice where we do a basic evaluation of each persons rule knowledge/comfort on the field. Soccer is our only sport for which we take only a select number of officials.

Q: How are officials schedules made and how many hours can I expect to receive?

A: We make our schedules on a week-to-week basis based on the availability that you give to us. The number of hours any referee receives depends on a number of factors including availability, experience, number of overall officials, and number of different sports you officiate.
