Our WWF mission is to provide quality opportunities for its members to achieve their full human and athletic potential, and strive to be USA Wrestling’s best state organization.

Among those leaders are mat officials (referees). We are always in need of additional officials. Maybe you're a young man or woman who wrestled in High school and you're now in college. Maybe your wrestler has moved on to their next phase of life and you still need your wrestling "fix". Or you're a coach stepping down.

Have you ever considered taking a role as an official?  

The WWF provides mentorship to help you achieve an WWF Officials role. We're always in need of new officials at all skill levels! Regardless of your knowledge and experience. 

If you are interested in Officiating or at least give it a try; Contact Thomas Platner: (P) 920-980-8135 / (E): tplatner126@hotmail.com.
