Why The Right Sports Official Gear Matters
Training is important, but having the right gear matters for our staff as well. There are three good reasons for this.
Professionalism
Official Finders hires individuals between the ages of 14 and 21. Regardless of age, our officials have the same responsibilities to the game, its players, and its spectators as much older officials, and our official gear ensures that you fit right in, displaying professionalism and credibility as you represent us on refereeing jobs in Northern IL.
Comfort
While they differ in the specifics of their rules and regulations, from an official’s point of view, they all share one thing in common: attention matters. You cannot afford to arrive in clothing that leaves you uncomfortable, or that impedes movement.
Protection
Game play isn’t the only thing that’s unpredictable. A stray ball, a broken bat, or clumsy player aren’t just inconveniences to officials; they can cause significant injury, which is why we provide protective equipment for our officials’ purchase.
Types of Sports Official Gear
We offer competitive pricing for a full range of umpire and referee gear.
Basketball Referee Gear
We have the basketball referee gear you need. Your uniform starts with a choice of shorts or pants, rounded out by a basketball referee shirt. Don’t have a whistle? That’s okay. We do!
Baseball and Softball Umpire Gear
Like our officials, our baseball and softball umpire gear come in all shapes and sizes.
-
Umpire apparel, including long-lasting hats, shirts, woven pants, and leather belts

Pro-grade chest protectors available in standard and long lengths
