Can students become officials?
WHSAA offers a registration-fee waiver for high school and college students. Ask WHSAA which registration category and assignments fit your age, experience, and situation.
Does signing up make me Certified?
No. Start with the registration checklist and requirements for your category. Certified is an advanced WHSAA classification; use the path above and the official handbook to plan your progression.
How do I find a local mentor?
Email lglanz@whsaa.org or call (307) 577-0614. Include your town, basketball experience, and that you’re looking for a local officials association or mentoring opportunity.
What if the rules clinic is not available yet?
Check the WHSAA basketball officials page for clinic access and updates. WHSAA posts its rules videos through NFHS Learn. Ask WHSAA about your current registration and testing window.
