The Real Cause of Losing Sports Officials: Unruly Fans and Coaches

Recreational Sports, Junior Highschool Sports, and Highschool Sports are witnessing across all types of sports a decline in sports officials. Athletic directors in all three levels have seen a steadily declined in sports officials in the last twenty years. But since the COVID-19 Pandemic, the lack of sports officials has increased so rapidly that it could eventually become a nationwide crisis. The pandemic may have caused the decline of sports officials but it was not the only cause. The age of the sports officials has played a role in the decline of the sport’s officials.

But the true main cause of losing sports officials has been the lack of respect for the sport’s officials through the behavior of players, coaches, family members, and sports fans.

Flag Football Under 14: An educational campaign for parents

If you are a parent considering enrolling your child in football, the Concussion Legacy Foundation strongly recommends you delay enrolling your child in tackle football until the age of 14. Research continues to show us that the long-term effects of repetitive brain trauma from tackle football can be catastrophic. And according to the CDC, tackle football contributes to the highest rate of concussion among all youth sports. Meanwhile, football experts - from coaches to Hall of Fame players - remind us that you don't need to start tackle young in order to become a great football player. Until tackle football is proven safe for the developing brain, we urgently recommend flag and other non-tackle versions of football before age 14.

FLAG FOOTBALL IS COMING TO THE OLYMPICS!

At the Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028, fans will get their first taste of flag football, a version of American football. The sport was added to the program for the Olympic Games in Los Angeles along with T20 cricket, lacrosse (sixes), baseball/softball and squash.

"As we celebrate the successes of Paris 2024 and the ball is thrown to LA28, we have no doubt flag football is going to light up the Games when it makes its debut in four years' time. Young, fast, creative and played by outstanding athletes, including our global flag football ambassador Jalen Hurts, the format is the perfect fit for the Games of a new generation,” said Pierre Trochet, the president of the International Federation of American Football.
