About the Central Florida Officials Association
The Central Florida Officials Association was formed in 1947 to provide officials for the interscholastic football and basketball programs of Central Florida. There are more than 350 officials in the CFOA that are certified by the Florida High School Athletics Association (FHSAA) and who will be scheduled for games at 48 schools during the 2006 football season and at 76 schools for the 2006-2007 basketball season. The classification of the schools within the CFOA service area range from 1A to 6A, and the majority of the schools have full varsity, junior varsity and freshman programs in football and both boys and girls basketball. Girls Flag Football began in 2005 with 12 schools and has grown each year.
The CFOA services schools located in the Orlando metropolitan area and within a geographic area surrounded by Volusia, Osceola, Seminole, and Lake counties.
The CFOA is proud of its members and alumni whose officiating accomplishments include the National Football League, six college football conferences and numerous college and junior college basketball conferences.
