We
Want You to Referee!
Welcome
to the Ice Hockey Australia Officiating website. We would
encourage anyone who is interested in becoming an on-ice
official to find out more by reading the information provided,
and then contacting their State
Referee In Chief.
We have
also made available a number of information resources for
our referees including the latest rule
updates, links to other officiating
websites, and the latest refereeing
news as it comes to hand.

The Art
of Officiating
To become
a competent, respected official at any level requires patience,
discipline, dedication, courage and hard work.
It's not usually
something that comes naturally, nor can the skills be taught or
mastered overnight; yet the demands for perfection are immediate.
Hockey is a fast paced, emotionally charged, exciting sport and
officials are an integral part along with players, coaches and
specatators. Hockey officiating is an apprenticeship process and
one of the main tools is learning through actual game experience.
