For referees, umpires, and assignors
Ice hockey assigning, from youth to college
Cover high-volume weekends, apply eligibility, and keep officials on the same record.
Familiar assigning problems
- High-volume weekends across rinks
- Level and eligibility rules that have to stay on the record
- A long season of pay that should match the games worked
What Horizon already does
Level and certification rules
Put certified officials on the levels they are cleared for, from youth through adult and college play.
Rink-to-rink conflicts
Flag officials who are booked at two rinks, or who lack enough time between ice slots.
Open ice as TBA Requests
Post uncovered games so officials can show interest — Horizon calls that TBA Requests — and you decide who takes the ice.
Season-long payroll
Track fees across a long season and report by official and by level. Electronic ACH through Payment Center is United States only; fees may apply.

- Assign referees and linespeople, or post uncovered games so officials can show interest — Horizon calls that TBA Requests — then award them yourself.

Answer
Yes, payroll reports cover any date range.
Electronic ACH through Payment Center is United States only, and fees may apply.
From an assignor who runs this kind of schedule
Gene Binda
I have used a number of assigning websites over the years and without question this is THE BEST I have ever come across. It is easy to use, and they can make any adjustment to make your scheduling system fit your specific needs. I use it everyday and have recommended this site to every assignor I do business with and they have made the switch. Everyone is very happy with the change.
