Thank you for your interest in becoming a Field Hockey umpire! Here are your next steps:

1. Fill out the "New Umpire Interest Form" located on the right side of the page. The BFHUA Training Coordinator will be in touch regarding your interest in becoming a field hockey umpire.  An Area Coordinator (based on where you live) will help you through the process.
2. The Area Coordinator will send information on training and field work and other obligations to become a field hockey umpire.
3. Take the FREE NFHS online “Officiating Field Hockey” course from the NFHS Learning Center. Please send the Certificate of Completion to your Area Coordinator.
4. After you complete your training, we will invoice you $90, which covers your training fee, first-year BFHUA dues, a safety-green BFHUA umpiring shirt, a whistle and cards.

New umpire registration for the Fall 2023 season will close on August 15!

Thank you for your interest and we look forward to your training and becoming a member of BFHUA!
