OUR MISSION

 

In the CSOA-LA it is our keen belief that the goal of interscholastic athletics is to adequately prepare student athletes with life skills, such as problem solving, leadership, and positive team building through sportsmanship. 

 

The CSOA-LA ask that our officials take a stake in the mission as well. We ask that our officials do that by being effective game managers, knowledgeable of rules and regulations, and be professional communicators to our member schools and community. 

 

Moving forward to a new year, we entrust that you will continue to strive for excellence in all of your officiating endeavors. In advance, we thank you for all you do to vastly shape the experience of high school athletics.
