How Games are Assigned
Although games are assigned throughout the entire hockey season, generally speaking, games are assigned in the following manner:
For all levels of minor, the Assignor(s) are required to (via email) request unavailable dates from each official prior to the 1st of each month. Officials will then lof on to this website and enter their availability days for the time frame provided. Assignor(s) will then schedule the officials based on SHA level, skill and availability for the entire month. Officials after receiving an email that they have received new assignements will re-log onto the web site to confirm these assignments. Confirming these assignments is not a way for the official to chose if they want it, just to confirm they received it and want to get paid for it. Once assignments are at this stage they are the officials responsibility regardless if they are confirmed or not. For further clarification please reference the SRA Assigning Overview PDF
Trading Games
Once you receive a game that game is YOUR’S!
-
If for whatever reason you can not referee your game you must find your own replacement.
-
Your replacement MUST come from your pool or higher.
-
A current phone list has been provided in the password area of this website.
-
If you suffer a major tragedy (death in the family), major illness or injury please contact Director of Assigning Relations or any exec member and we will attempt to cover your affected assignments.
-
When a game is traded the assignor must be contacted by the referee taking the game and the referee accepting the game. (See below for procedures for contacting the assignor)
-
Failure to do this will result in the official working the game not getting paid.
-
If this occurs it then becomes the responsibility of the official who worked the
game not the responsibility of SRA to get the money from the official he got the traded game from.
-
Note: This also may result in Disciplinary Actions
If the proper procedure is followed and there is a discrepancy in your check please contact Director of Assigning Relations and he will get the problem resolved ASAP.
