Hello fellow officials,
Just a reminder that we need more officials. If you can post, tweet or Instagram open invitations on your social media it would be greatly appreciated. Our kickoff cookout is at the end of the month so now would be a great time to push recruiting. If they aren't sure, have them come to the cookout and meet the group.

As always, thank you for you hard work and I look forward to the upcoming season and being on the field with all of you.

If you didn't know, Coach Beale has retired from his position as head football coach at Floyd County High School. His coaching career spanned 50 years which is quite the accomplishment in today's time.
Here's the photo of Coach Beale receiving his congratulatory letter sent on behalf of the WVFOA courtesy of Mark.
