Upstate 8 Football High School Officiating

Welcome to the Upstate 8 Football Home Page. Here you will be able to find the Upstate 8 Football Conference Schedule for both Varsity and Non-Varsity assignments. Also included are all the member schools of the Upstate 8 Football Conference, Athletic Directors and directions to the schools.

Thank you for visiting and please return often to find out information on the conference.

Beginning with the 2008-09 Football season I will be using the Assign By Web contract program ( https://u8fc.assignby.net)

NOTE: If you are currently registered on the https://scc.assignby.net program you CAN use your USER NAME and password. When you go to the main home page on the LEFT hand side you will see a link that says User Registration. Click on the link and you will be redirected to another page – the page will have two options – a box above in red that will say Click here to Register or a box below that tells you if you are already registered on another site, to please enter your user name and password. ONLY if you are already registered on the SCC site (or Steve Alexander’s SLBOA site) can you use this option. You will still need to click on the submit registration option and then I will approve you. Note that for next season SEVERAL other football assignors will be on the same dot net site so you will be able to use your User Name and Password from my site.

The next step is important - Please do NOT register more than once! The system does NOT automatically send you a password! I have to approve you and if there is a delay in the approval it is ONLY because I am NOT in front of the computer to approve you, Understand there may be some considerable lag-time if I am not in front of the computer. THEN the system will send you your password and then you can complete your availability program.

Please complete the form as shown on the screen. Under User type please select Official from the drop down menu. You MUST complete the form accurately - understand that if you complete the form correctly, it will be easier for the schools to pay you as they will be linked to this as well through school access. You CANNOT complete or access your availability calendar until I approve you!

Please note that I will continue to use both https://u8fc.assignby.net/ I will still be using by www.ohassignments.com website as this will provide you with the individual school links and some other miscellaneous information If you are a CREW CHIEF you can either have your crew members sign up individually or you can register them yourself. This is important as this is how the schools will be able to pay you for your game assignment.

The program is set up to send you an email reminder 48 hours before game time. This does NOT absolve you of the responsibility of confirming with the school as things may change quicker than I can input! If you only show a work email, please consider getting a 2nd free email. Please make sure you update your spam blockers otherwise the systems ability to communicate with you will be compromised. For lower level games there will also be a Self-Assign feature, similar to what Jay uses.

Also make sure that you add the following webadmin@assignbyweb.com or webadmin@assignby.net to your email address book of approved Senders as this is the address that will send you ALL game contracts, changes, etc. Note that if you use either a Hotmail or Yahoo account their internal firewall and spam filters may prevent you from receiving your User Name and Password. Make sure you add the above as this is how ALL communication will take place.

FAQ’s for Assign by Web Use

I am currently on one (1) Assign by Web dot com program and my Assignor is updating to the new dot net site. Can I use my old User name and Password? No – The Assign by Web company (via your Assignor) will be issuing you an updated User Name with a NEW password (which you can change after you log-in)
What if I work another sport and that Assignor already has a dot net site- do I have to use the new User Name and Password sent to me when the conversion takes place? No – you can then use your EXISTING User name and Password from the dot net site (remember these User Names and Passwords are NOT sport specific – they are Official specific) in lieu of the one sent to you – you will just need to tell your Assignor of the new dot net site what User Name & Password you will use.
Can I just log on to the new site via the Home page? No – the system does NOT automatically “register” you - you need to 1^st register on the new dot net site by clicking on the User Registration link – you will be redirected to another page that will say OR, if you are already registered on any of ASW sites, enter your login/password to register on this site – type your User Name and Password from your other dot net site and click on the Find Account button.
Can I use this User name and password for any other assignor in ANY other sport that I work so I can manage AND update just one calendar? Yes – that is the advantage of the Assign by Web dot net site (versus the old dot com sites). You can manage ALL of your sports with one calendar. You may of course get some overlap as ALL of your Assignments will be visible from other assignors as they release their other sports, be they Self Assign lower level football games, or your baseball or softball schedules.
What if I want to have a User name for each sport I work but use the same Password – can I do this? Yes you can, after you “register” you can change your password to whatever you want – remember though that if you do this it will ultimately be YOUR responsibility to keep track of the various user names you use AND to make sure your calendar is UPDATED and ACCURATE for each sport!
What if I want to limit my Availability calendar (like in Basketball) to specific Assignors? Again the system does NOT automatically link you to each assignor that has a dot net site. YOU still have to register for your sport specific Assignor in order for them to view your OPEN date calendar.
How will I know if the Assignors in other sports that I work for will be updating their Assign by Web dot com sites to the newer dot net sites? The sites are renewed on a yearly basis – simply ask your assignor if he will be updating to the new dot net sites when he renews his contract with Assign by Web or if he will keep the OLD dot com site.
