What is Official Finders?
We’ve served the needs of youth sports organizations in Northern IL and Northwest IN since 2009. While our sports officials are the backbone of our organization, we know that it takes more than that to ensure the game day goes off without a hitch.
So even though we certainly invite you to call us when you need officials for baseball, softball, basketball, flag football, volleyball, soccer, dodgeball, field hockey, and kickball, we would remind you that we offer far more than that. The same phone call will also take care of any scorekeepers, hall monitors, and concessions workers you may need and will ensure you have competent, professional staff who show up on time, ready to give their best.
