  Never refereed roller before? Perfect.
  Curious what it’s like? Even better.

  This is an opportunity to expand your officiating pathway while being supported by experienced mentors who want to see you succeed.

  If you’re ready to try something new, build confidence, and stay in the game year-round, we want to hear from you.

  🏒 Come roll with us.

✅ Eligibility Requirements

Referees must be at least 14 years of age and turning 15 within the current calendar year.

If you referee ice hockey in the winter, this is your off-season goldmine. Roller hockey is the closest thing to ice hockey you can officiate without the Zamboni humming in the background. Similar rules. No off-sides or icings. Same positioning. Same game flow. Just wheels instead of blades.

🟢 A PROGRAM BUILT ON RESPECT

We proudly support the Green Arm Band Initiative. In our league, respect for officials is not optional.

The green armband represents mentorship, development, and a safe environment for learning. It signals that growth is encouraged, guidance is available, and officials are supported every step of the way.

🦓 Officials First. Always.

When you commit to us, we commit to you.

We know referees are the heartbeat of every game. Confident, supported officials create better hockey, better development, and a better experience for everyone on the rink.

💰 Earned Commitment Bonus

Complete 12 games with us and receive a full refund of your jersey cost on your next paycheck.

We are building a league where officials feel supported, respected, and valued. Because when referees are confident and happy, the entire game runs smoother, faster, and better.

You show up for the players.
We show up for you. 💚🏒
