The Officiating Staff for the Women’s World Championship in Finland is now confirmed following a nomination and selection process carried out during April and May. Drawn from 11 nations across 3 continents the officials will showcase officiating talent from around the world. Davie Parsons, IFAF Supervisor of Officials for the tournament, who led the process said. “I am looking forward to the Championship with confidence in the knowledge we have been able to assemble a group of highly experienced and competent Officials from all over the world". Parsons went on to say, “The support and cooperation demonstrated by our member nations throughout the process has been fantastic and made the task that much easier to complete.” In the build up to the tournament the officials will work together through online discussion and training sessions on Rules, Rule Interpretations, Mechanics and Officiating Philosophy. Ethics, Competition Manipulation, Physical Fitness and Wellbeing initiatives will also be included. Allied to the work of the officials  there will be a considerable number of off-field staff supporting the officials with roles inclusive of chain crew personnel and the operating of Scoreboards, Game Clocks and Play Clocks, IFAF is grateful to SAJL to proving volunteers to these crucial roles.
