How To Swap Referees After Assignments Have Been Created

Permalink    |    Topic: Referee Management

If assignments are in any state other than draft, moving an official from one position to another can be done but will require quite a few 'clicks' to complete. This may need to be done when (as examples) referees switched positions during a game and the assignor needs to make the adjustment later or if an assignor wants to move a referee due to someone else declining.

  1. Under Officials, Select Edit Referee Assignments to display a list of games;
  2. From the Edit Referee Assignment Page, locate the game needing the change and select Display Assignments;
  3. Click on the name of any Official assigned to the game - this isolates the game so that changes can be made.
  4. For the referee(s) that are being moved, use the drop down to select the blank option and select Save Changes (draft). (example above)
  5. Select Display Assignments once again and select the appropriate officials for the appropriate positions and select a save option

Helpful Hints

  • If the assignment is in the past and you are adjusting for what actually happened, use Save Changes. Display the Display Assignments again and manually confirm the officials using the drop down [referees name (confirmed)] and select Save Changes.
  • If the assignment hasn't happened yet and the official should still have the opportunity to confirm or decline the assignment, select the Create Assignment option with or without emailing the officials.
