Scorekeeper
Timekeeper

Presentation
Off-Ice Officials
• The off-ice officials will be responsible for securing the
game rosters from each team prior to the start of the game.
• After the game, they will ensure the score sheet is properly
completed and signed by the officials and will distribute a
copy to each team, with the appropriate copy going to the
league office.
• Another important role of the off-ice official is to monitor
behavior in and around the area known as the penalty
benches and scorer’s bench
• When there are acts of disrespect either by the players,
coaches or fans, it is the off-ice officials role to report this
to the on-ice officials AT THE NEXT STOPPAGE of play.
Southern Maryland Sabres Team Manager
Presentation
More roles
• The role of the off-ice official includes undivided
attention to the game in progress.
• The game clock must be stopped and started at the
appropriate times and special attention should be paid
as to whether the clock is functioning properly.
• Goals, assists and penalties, as reported by the referee,
must be recorded accurately and quickly in order to
minimize unnecessary delays.
• Penalty expiration situations must also be handled
smoothly and efficiently in order to create a fair playing
environment.

Tips to work with the ON ICE
crew
• Establish a rapport with the officials before the game during warmups
• Let them know you are ready to assist them.
• Alert them if you have a new timekeeper or you anticipate any
problems.
• Show respect at all times.
• Communicate with your officials. Avoid blowing the horn to get
their attention.
• Remember, in many situations (except in cases where players leave
the penalty bench prematurely), the on-ice official does not have
the authority to stop play for a situation that can be addressed
during the next normal stoppage.
• Patience, in this case, is a must for any off-ice official.
Southern Maryland Sabres Team Manager
Presentation
More tips
• If a situation or explanation is unclear, don’t hesitate to
ask for clarification from the on-ice officials.
• The most common situations that tend to cause
confusion are multiple penalty situations, delayed
penalty situations and penalty termination as the result
of a goal being scored
• Support your on-ice teammates by offering your
version of any incident, only when asked.
• Report any misconduct in the penalty bench area at
the next stoppage of play and be specific when
describing the incident.
