Referees for league games are handled by District 8.

If you are lining up a scrimmage on WSPHA purchased ice and need referees, please follow instructions on this link.  The rule of thumb is the away team pays for referees .  

https://www.minnesotahockeydistrict8.com/scrimmageofficial.  Scrimmages with referees are considered a game. Score sheets and team labels are required.

Two refs will work each game and payment is required from the team at the start of the scrimmage/game.  The association will reimburse the team for two scrimmages per season (you will need to submit a reimbursement form).   After your team has had both scrimmages, please submit a check request to the registrar.  They will approve and reimburse the expense.
