The ERVA is offering Junior Players the opportunity to work as paid Officials.

The Junior Development Officials' Program is designed to offer junior players an opportunity:

• To help the junior officials hone their officiating skills as well as their playing experience;
• To provide role models for the younger junior players;
• To offer a part time job for those willing to learn the trade;
• To identify new officials and help them enter the officiating ranks;
• To advance in volleyball through the Officials' Division.
