Game Assignments
The Arlington Soccer Club uses www.USOfficials.com for referee game assignments. All In-Town and Grassroots referees must have an account with USOfficials.
Rules to follow when using the USOfficials system:
- Password and login information
- Initial user ID/password will be emailed to each new referee.
- If an email is not received please contact Referee Assignor Paul Athanasiadis (paul2319@gmail.com) ASAP.
- Youth referees should add an adult’s email to their US official account, in addition to their own.
- Availability
- Availability must be entered on the USOfficials site in order to be assigned games. Note that availability must be a minimum of 65 minutes i.e. a 9am-10am availability will not appear as an option for the assignor. For games longer than 30 minute halves, longer periods of available time are required.
- Enter time availability for each day that you want to work. Be sure to click “Update” after each submission.
- Game assignments
- Games will be assigned no later than Tuesday 12:00pm (noon).

- There may be consequences for rejecting a game that is within the availability window that
you submitted so please check your other commitments before entering availability.
