Thank you for your interest in becoming a member of the NORTHEAST CHAPTER 2 VOLLEYBALL OFFICIALS ASSOCIATION.

Each year our chapter has a training program for those individuals who wish to become eligible to officiate high school volleyball. We have designed a program that will train individuals in a comprehensive knowledge of the rules in preparation for the National Federation Test and in the proper mechanics of officiating.

Each applicant must complete the application along with the registration fee of $270.00. Once you have been approved for the class, each applicant must then fulfill the following requirements:

  • Attend one(1) introductory virtual meeting and five (5) virtual rules meetings where the rules of volleyball are presented and discussed by the chapter instructors
  • Pass the NFHS written rules test. PASSING GRADE IS 80%. This exam is given in person on Monday February 22, 2027.  There is no makeup date!  The exam will be reviewed virtually on February 24, 2027.
  • Complete five (5) observations of Varsity/JV matches. Signature sheets will be provided for verification purposes.
  • Attend four (4) mechanics sessions in-person.
  • Complete the NFHS ‘Alignment’ courses PRIOR to taking the NFHS Exam.

  • Submit five (5) unique passing evaluations - each from a different official in the NORTHEAST CHAPTER 2 VOLLEYBALL OFFICIALS ASSOCIATION, certified by NJSIAA who is in good standing. These evaluations must be submitted to the Assistant Cadet Supervisor before approval to become a certified official. 
  • Cadets who do not finish their requirements can officiate NON-VARSITY MATCHES. This would include Freshmen and Middle School matches.
