NCAA Track and Field Officials,

Thank you for your continued support of NCAA Track & Field - I hope this finds you and your loved ones safe and healthy through these unprecedented times.

I am writing you today to inform you that due to family/health circumstances, NCAA Track & Field Officials Assignor, Nathan Smurdon, has made the difficult decision to step away from this role and will not be leading the selection process for the 2021 NCAA Championship competitions. After working as an official for NCAA competitions for 18 years, Nathan served in the NCAA assignor role since 2017. We are thankful for his ongoing work to transform the selection process and his work behind the scenes as he has been an advocate for the officiating community, proposing and implementing a variety of changes to improve the officiating experience.

We continue to plan for both indoor and outdoor championships and will be working with the host site officials coordinator as well as the DI, DII and DIII committees to select the officials for the championships.

We understand that there were a few officials who had technical difficulties with the new Arbiter registration platform and because of this, it remains open and available for officials to submit their interest in 2021 championship opportunities. It will close on Friday, October 23rd. As before, any questions you have with the Arbiter platform as you process your registration, please contact their tech support at 800-311-4060. We still plan for selection announcements to be made in December.
