PSRA Payments
April 22, 2013

PSRA has moved to Go Pay to pay our referees for all Spring and Fall League games. If you already have an account set up, you're all set.

If you DO NOT have a Go Pay account, please set up one now (log on to Game Officials and press MY PAYMENTS). Direct deposit is one option. Or you can choose to receive a check from Go Pay. Any additional cost for payments by check will be at the referee's expense.  Don't forget to add your 1099 Authorization.


New Assigning Software
April 2, 2013

Please note we are officially using the Game Official software now.  Remove all of your references and bookmarks to UAR.  Instead use the Game Official account you created to register for 2013 (see link to Referee Registration for more info) or the account you have always used.  Once logged in to Game Officials, select the MY ASSIGNORS under PERSONAL INFO and join the group below (press SHOW to expose entry).

Guest or out of town referees can register for a Game Officials account by clicking here.

Group No.:  1229

It's up and we have games.  Use the SELF ASSIGN feature to get the games.  You may need to change the filter for date range.

ccsl_logo norcal_logo_trimmed ECNL_logo
Referees, you must be aware of the differences in procedures and rules for Division 1 and Division 3 level games, including Division 4 (recreational).
Part of being a professional is knowing the details about your game, including game lengths, send-off procedures, substitutions and the like. Take a look at these links for game day procedures you'll need before you go out to the field. Send one of us a note if you have further questions.  Make sure you know what to do if there is a Red card before your game, not after!
