The boys and girls high school water polo seasons run concurrently during the spring from August - October. The Ohio Water Polo Referees’ Association (OWPRA) assigns referees for all Ohio High School water polo games, as well as youth and adult/masters water polo games throughout the year. Complete the following to become a “member in good standing” with the OWPRA.
Complete your membership application annually. Your membership follows our fiscal year (January 1 - December 31). OWPRA recommends submitting your application early in the calendar year to maximize your benefits.
Your yearly dues follow our fiscal year, just as your annual membership does. There are a number of benefits to membership that annual dues cover such as liability insurance, referee development and training, high school certification and assignments to masters tournaments.
Part of being certified to officiate in high school level competition is to complete the annual rules test. This is can be completed after you have filled out your application and paid your annual dues. The test is based on the NFHS water polo rules and their application.
