Welcome to GCCOA Website

We are the longest serving MHSAA local approved association in the state of Michigan, covering MHSAA middle and high school sanctioned contests for football, basketball, baseball, and softball. The intended mission of the GCCOA is to recruit, train, and retain MHSAA registered members in the sports the GCCOA supports. To learn more about the GCCOA, go to ABOUT GCCOA page.

MHSAA Officials Guidebook

The MHSAA 2024-2025 Officials Guidebook is availabe on the MHSAA.COM website. Registration as an MHSAA official is a privilege and as with all privileges, there are responsibilities, outlined in the MHSAA 2024-2025 Officials Guidebook.

There are two purposes the guide serves, second of which provides both new and veteran officials with reminders of policies and procedures that must be followed if they are to remain in good standing with MHSAA and its more than 1,800 member junior high / middle schools and senior high schools.

GCCOA Recruiting

Sports officiating is a challenging job, but there are great rewards. To be a successful official, you will need mental toughness, good people skills and thick skin. Sports officiating will inherently teach you all of those skills and much more. If you love sports, you will have the best view of the game as an official. More importantly, officiating will teach you how to view the games in a whole new light – one that emphasizes fairness, integrity, decisiveness and sound judgement.
