It is a great way to connect with other officials to review rules, mechanics, and other in-season officiating issues.

The NHIAA has not adopted NFHS Covid considerations. Consequently, all pre-Covid protocols are back. Local schools may require officials to wear masks and officials should be prepared to wear a mask if asked to wear one.
