	GHSA Officials Accountability Program Accountability in all sports contests has been heightened in recent years because of the “scrutiny” that recording and playing back every contest has created. The performances of players, coaches and game officials are being viewed and reviewed. As such, game officials must maintain a high level of competency, and expect to be held accountable for their performance and behavior. The Georgia High School Association’s Accountability in Officiating Program will attempt to institute a program in which the level of competent high school officiating will be enhanced in every contest sanctioned by the GHSA.
