Spaces are still available for the few remaining IHOA seminars this fall. Sign up, put on the stripes, and see the game from a new perspective as an on-ice official! Officiating games gives you more time on the ice, and gets you more exposure to game situations, which can help to improve anticipation and sense of game flow. And with pay rates starting at around $30 per game and the ability to set your own schedule, it makes for great part time work.

Upcoming seminars will be held in Orland Park, Pekin, Vernon Hills, Joliet, Hoffman Estates, Chicago (Fifth Third Arena), and Geneva. All seminars will be a mixture of a Zoom seminar
followed by in-person class and on-ice training. Start your journey by registering as an official on the USA Hockey website, then reserving your seminar spot at IHOA.com. Instructions are available on our website, and any questions can be directed to our registrar by emailing registrar@ihoa.com.
