NASO Summit Atlanta & Officiate Georgia Day Was A Peach!

Aug 4th, 2024

The Sports Officiating Summit in Atlanta, Georgia presented by the National Association of Sport Officials (NASO) and Officiate Georgia Day is in the books! This Summit marks the 16th straight year of our participation. The best and brightest minds in officiating come together to discuss and plan the current and future conditions of our profession. This years theme was "Sustain Officials, Retain Officials".

Georgia Officiate Day

The Georgia High School Association (GHSA) holds the record of attendance. We wanted to make sure we showed up with our best to cover both Officiate Georgia Day and the official 3-Day NASO Summit that followed.

Summit Attendees

Hunter, Sherie and Ty were great energy as always. The 2nd year of our prize spin wheel on Officiate Georgia Day was a giant hit.

The NASO Summit opens doors to new markets along with ones we are already in. We get feedback on what works and what is needed for officials.
