NMAA officials needed
Longtime New Mexico Activities Association official Silas Wilson is recruiting officials for the 2022-23 athletic seasons in Deming. Wilson said the NMAA is in need of football, volleyball, baseball, softball, and basketball officials for lower-level middle school and high school sporting events.
Wilson said knowledge of officiating each sport is not necessary but helpful. “I can teach the basics of officiating for each sport,” Wilson told the Headlight.
New recruits would be officiating Red Mountain Middle School and Deming High School athletic events.
For more information and how to register, call Silas Wilson at 575-545-9385.
