The Greater Dayton Wrestling Officials Association (GDWOA) is proud to announce the formation of a new wrestling officials’ association.  The GDWOA has been established as the alternative; to meet the needs of officials from the Cincinnati, Dayton and northern parts of the Miami Valley. 
 
Our goal is simple . . . "to create an environment where better officiating can develop through education and opportunity for our members".
 
Our charge is as follows…..

• FACILITATE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR MEMBERS TO MAXIMIZE THEIR OFFICIATING POTENTIAL AND PROVIDE EXPERIENCE OPPORTUNITIES TO HELP ALL MEMBERS REACH THEIR OFFICIATING GOALS.
• PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEMBERS TO MASTER THE RULES AND MASTER THE MECHANICS NECESSARY TO ENFORCE THE RULES SO THEY EXERCISE AUTHORITY IN AN IMPARTIAL, FIRM AND CONTROLLED MANNER.
• CREATE EDUCATIONAL ALLIANCES WITH SCHOOLS, COACHES AND THE WRESTLING COMMUNITY TO FURTHER THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR ATHLETES.
• ADVOCATE THE RECRUITMENT AND ADVANCEMENT OF OFFICIALS.
• REQUIRE THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF ETHICS AND PROFESSIONALISM OF THEIR BOARD AND MEMBERS.

 
Dues for the GDWOA will be $25 and membership is open to all licensed wrestling officials.
