  Expand Why Become a Student Official?

  Does your student or child want to lead from the sidelines? Students selected as officials are full members of the Team Vic team. They participate in all the same experiences as the student-athletes and receive dedicated coaching and mentoring throughout the championship event.

• Eligibility and Selection Criteria

  SSV provisionally selects student officials based on the following requirements:

  • Age: Generally the same age or older than the championship age group.
  • Accreditation: Must hold an appropriate level of accreditation for the sport.
  • Experience: Must have a reasonable level of experience, which requires approval from the National Sport Advisor.
  • Approval: Must have permission from their school principal to attend the event.

  Once selected, student officials may be invited to assist with selection trials, attend team training, and participate in team presentations and photo sessions.
