Welcome to the GSFL Referee Hub
The Gopher State Football League (GSFL) is the home of certified football officials. In 2025 we served almost 150 officials, 32 youth associations, 182 teams, and officiated over 750 games in a forty-nine (49) day regular season for tackle football grades 2-8 in our inaugural season.
We are in the early stages of planning the 2026 season and will update this page with enhanced requirements, certifications clarification, training opportunities, and required learning sessions as the season draws near.
