Est. 1961 – Washington Officials Association Chapter
PNFOA
The Pacific Northwest Football Officials Association provides officials for high school varsity and sub-varsity, junior high, and youth rec football across King County.
We’re a local chapter of the Washington Officials Association (WOA) — the body that certifies and assigns officials for WIAA regular and postseason play. PNFOA is one of 19 local associations in Washington, and one of the oldest, now in its seventh decade serving Washington schools.
Most of us didn’t come up as ex-players. We came up because we love being on the field, making the right call under pressure, and being the steady presence kids and coaches can count on.

“The athletes and coaches look upon each contest as the most important thing in their lives at that moment — the official must look upon each contest the same way.”
That’s the PNFOA bar. Physical ability, yes. Love of kids and athletics, yes. But above all: integrity, self-confidence, and the willingness to be decisive when it matters.
