What We Do

Our chapter officiates games at many different levels from youth leagues to high school varsity and sub-varsity levels, 8-man football leagues, flag football leagues, and semi-professional football leagues. We provide leagues with officials for scrimmages, exhibitions, chain crews, benefit games, all-star games, playoff and championship games throughout the Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia and Virginia areas. Our chapter works with 4-man, 5-man, 6-man, or 7-man crews. Our chapter also works in cooperation with other football chapters around the area to cover games as needed with multi-chapter crews working games together.
