About DASOA

The objectives of DASOA, whose members are all registered with the Referee Program of the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) are to:

• Provide a structure for the dissemination of USSF referee information, high quality instruction, and mentoring.
• Provide an atmosphere in which peers gain a better understanding of The Laws of the Game through interaction and discussion.
• Provide a program for re-certification and upgrading under USSF guidelines through the State Soccer Association.
• Promote sportsmanship among players, coaches, and spectators.
• Advocate the assignment of members as the most competent sanctioned referees to officiate league, state and nationally sanctioned matches.
• Advocate for individual members in all matters related to participation in the sport of soccer as a USSF referee.

Our website, www.dasoa.org, serves the membership in many ways. It provides specifics on the meeting places and educational agenda; contains information on entry-level USSF referee courses, advanced clinics, and re-certification opportunities; and articles on theory and philosophy of officiating. For information that affects the referee at the local and league levels, as well as the latest pronouncements by the USSF and FIFA, one surfs www.dasoa.org.

The DASOA welcomes new members as it continues to build an organization to serve the youth and adult soccer programs in the Miami Valley with quality soccer officiating. If you have questions or would like more information about the organization, you may want to contact an officer (see Board or Contacts).

We hope that we can be of service to you and that we have the opportunity to welcome you as a member in our organization at some future time. Please refer to our section on Joining for further information about how you can become a member.
