Dear Wrestling Community,

The new high school wrestling season is almost upon us and the Utah Wrestling Officials Association (UWOA) is busy preparing for the new year.  The UWOA provides the training and evaluation of all officials who officiate for events sanctioned by the Utah High School Activities Association (UHSAA).  All officials are registered and certified through the UHSAA.  The UHSAA is ready to start making assignments for the various tournaments and dual meets.  The problem is the UHSAA does not have enough officials to meet the needs. As such we are extending an invitation to anyone interested in officiating to please do so.  Below are the steps to become an official.
