This page is for officials to give guidance as to what equipment is needed to officiate Soccer. There are several different types of some items to show what is available to you.

Soccer is an outdoor sport where you will encounter various types of weather. In North Carolina, during the first part of the fall season you can expect to encounter temperatures as high as the 90s then in the second half of the season you will experience cooler temperatures.

For the Spring season it is the exact opposite. In the first part of the season you can expect to work in temperatures as low as the 30's and for the second half of the season temperatures could be up into the 80's. Some games are played during the day and some in the evening so make sure you have equipment to dress accordingly.

Please contact your Regional Supervisor if you have any questions about uniforms and equipment. In some cases they may have a specific item they want you to purchase and in other cases you may be able to purchase a different style or brand. SSOA does not endorse any specific brands or items.
