Reviewing contest ratings

Head coaches and athletic directors can rate the officials from their contests in School Center. If you review game reports for a sport, you can read that sport's ratings here.

This page is for game report reviewers: directors of officials, sport presidents, rules interpreters, and assistant commissioners. Officials can't see ratings, including ratings of themselves.

Sign in and open the ratings

  1. Go to officials.chsaa.org.
  2. Tap Officials (not Association).
  3. Tap Sign in as an official and use the email and password linked to your reviewer access.
  4. In the sidebar, under Game Reports, tap Contest Ratings.

If you don't see Contest Ratings or Review Reports in the sidebar, you aren't set up as a reviewer. See Not seeing ratings? below.

What you can see

You see ratings only for the sports you review, the same sports as Review Reports. Boys and girls versions of a sport are grouped, so a Basketball reviewer sees both Boys and Girls Basketball ratings.

Ratings are read-only. You can't edit, delete, or download them.

The ratings list

Ratings are listed with the most recent contest first. Each row shows the contest date, the official's name and position, the teams, and the Overall score.

You can narrow the list by:

  • Official's name: matches the name exactly as the rater typed it
  • Sport: shown only if you review more than one sport
  • Date range: filters on the contest date

Tap View → on a row to open the full rating.

The rater types the official's name in by hand. One official can show up under different spellings, so if you can't find someone, try just their last name.

Reading a rating

Each rating has three parts.

Scores. Each category is scored from 1 to 5, where 5 is Excellent:

ScoreMeaning
5Excellent
4Great
3Good
2Fair
1Poor

The categories are On Time, Positioning & Ability, Judgment, Game Management/Decisiveness, Presence & Signals, Consistency, Communication Skills, and Overall Rating. Any comment the rater left appears under its score. Raters were asked to score against whether they would consider the official state caliber.

Contest. The date and time (Mountain Time), sport, level, home and away teams, and site.

Submitted by. The rater's name, their school role (for example Head Coach or Athletic Director), and when they submitted. Contact details are not shown.

Keep in mind

Each rating is one coach's or AD's view of one contest, from one side of the game. Several ratings from different raters give a fuller picture than any single score.

Only CHSAA staff and the reviewers for that sport can see ratings.

Not seeing ratings?

  • No Contest Ratings link: you aren't listed as a reviewer for any sport. Contact the CHSAA officials office to be added.
  • A sport is missing: you're listed as a reviewer for some sports but not that one. The officials office can add it.
  • A rating you expected isn't listed: the school may not have finished submitting it, or the official's name may be spelled differently. Clear the filters and search by last name.

Contact the CHSAA officials office. They manage who reviews each sport and can check whether a rating was submitted.
