Officials
Becoming an official for water skiing and wakeboarding is a great way to get involved in or give something back to the sport you love.
There are several types of officiating roles, with something to suit everyone. As well as meeting and working with a great bunch of fellow enthusiasts you will also learn a great deal more about the “behind the scenes” and technical aspects of the sport.
