Referee & umpire staffing in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The Twin Cities run one of the deepest youth-sports schedules in the Upper Midwest — anchored by the National Sports Center and a packed tournament calendar. Officials Unlimited staffs your baseball, soccer, softball, and basketball leagues and tournaments with vetted, trained officials, and keeps recruiting across the Minneapolis metro so you never run short. We recruit, assign, and cover your games.
Minneapolis · this Saturday On track
Not enough officials. Games that still have to be covered.
Between the National Sports Center in Blaine and the dozens of rec and travel programs across the Twin Cities, the Minneapolis metro runs more youth games than its official pool can cover. Directors from Bloomington to Eagan to Maple Grove end up chasing the same umpires and refs every weekend. Officials Unlimited brings a deep, vetted pool to Hennepin County and the surrounding metro, puts the right crew on every field, and keeps recruiting locally so your pipeline never runs dry.
