  Capital District Football Officials Association 

Welcome

to the Capital District Chapter of Certified NYS Football Officials

CDFOA Logo 

Our organization provides football officials for Section II teams in the Albany/Amsterdam/Schenectady/Troy area in the Capital District of the State of New York.

This site contains materials designed to improve our ability to serve the youth of the Capital District as they participate in the sport of football. Officiating is an extremely rewarding experience as the sport of football teaches our young people discipline, humility and teamwork. Officials provide a stabilizing influence in this popular sport. The menu above will take you to additional web pages.

RPI will be holding a 7 on 7 passing tournament on June 3rd. There is no profiting from this camp; they do it to promote the RPI facilities and local football. Last year it was in March and we froze our butts off, but the play was predictive of some of the best upcoming football played at the high school level last season. Think about working this tournament, most of the contests will be in the morning with reducing need as play-offs happen and teams are reduced during the day. More to come....

Please review the NFSHSA 2012 Football Rules Press Release.
