This is our first year of our state interscholastic sports governing body requiring criminal background checks for all officials, in all sports. At this point all we are required to do is to have our local board send our state interscholastic sports governing body a list of all our official's names and birthdates. If we, as individual officials, do not make our birthdates available to our local board, we will not be assigned games. At this point the state interscholastic sports governing body funds the criminal background check, however, in the future, this fee may be taken on by individual officials.

But PedoBear is definately OUT!
