Dallas Football Officials Association

The Dallas Football Officials Association (DFOA) is one of the largest chapters of football officials in the state of Texas. With over 630 members, we officiate football throughout the metroplex.

We are a chapter of the Texas Association of Sports Officials (TASO), which is the governing body over most high school and junior high school sports officials in the state of Texas. They work directly with the University Interscholastic League (UIL),  the governing body of public schools in Texas, as well as TAPPS, the governing body of the private schools.

Every year, before the season, we make agreements with local schools and districts to provide football officials for their varsity and sub-varsity football games.

The chapter assigns officials to work these games. The schools pay the officials directly for his/her services. Each year our Chapter is responsible for over 12,000 officiating game assignments.

We need new officials. If you are interested in pursuing football officiating as an avocation, please contact our recruitment chair Steve Anthony at  steve@myavidgolfer.com.  Check out the new members guide listed below. It will answer a lot of common questions about becoming a football official.
