Right contact info of Assigner for upcoming game Notice email to team contacts
Could you change the name of the EMail from on the Upcoming game official notices to the Assigner's of that game name. I believe the name is coming from the account Administrator of system.
OR remove the name.
OR attached the assigner's info within the game notice.We have multiple game code/assigners all going out attached with admin name.

Allow an official to set a "max games per day" in their profile and then shut down availability once that number is met.
ie if I set my max to 2 games, once I have two games accepted in my schedule, close down my availability for that day. Would be great if this showed on the scheduler side as well so that if for instance, they tried to schedule an official for 3 games, it would show them that the official is only interesting in doing 2.

Require Game Reports From Officials
This should be game dependent. Playoffs require this report as mandatory and regular season is optional.
In "Features & Settings", when enabled, the assignor should have to option for yes or no when adding a game.

Get email receipt of all emails sent out in Assoc
To have the option as the owner of the association, to receive all emails that have been sent out by others, regardless if recipient or not.
Have option to turn on and off this feature.
Sometimes its good to know what your contractors are contacting others about through your site (and they don't want you to see, so don't add you).

Ability to request help and additional training for certain aspects of officiating
As a ref, I have experience, but still sometimes struggle with calling certain penalties. I would love to see a system where you can request additional training and assistance with making these calls. I know that it may be more difficult because of covid, but I believe this will really help refs who didn't get the on-ice training this year due to covid, such as myself.

Batch Import for Custom Fields
A missing feature is the ability to use the system to track things like test scores, clinic attendance, etc. in order to report on it and establish whether an official is ready for assigning or if they should be blocked based on scores, etc.
Being able to define our own custom fields is great. Being able to batch load from excel would be even better and would make HWR considerably stronger in its application as an official management tool.

Covid screening questionaire to be filled out every time an official receives a game assignment.
I would like to get a Covid screening questionnaire built and added to game reminders and have each official fill it out each day he or she is assigned a game. Since most assignors can't be at the rink to screen the officials I think it's important at the minimum we do some due diligence regarding their health and travel.

A separate Injury Report or at least a category should be added to the incident report.
Using the current incident report, which is clearly intended for infractions/ejections, is a bit awkward. Unless there was a deliberate act by another player, there is no offending player and no rules infraction.
The incident report is an easy and convenient way for Officials to document game incidents promptly following the game when memories are fresh.5 votes -
Saving the Sorting Filters or changing the default order
Having the ability to save the sorting feature or set defaults on the back end.
The default Date, Arena, Time is annoying and having to reset it EVERY login is tiresome. It makes more sense to be Date, Time Arena. When viewing the master schedule

Member Directory - League Personnel
When viewing Members Directory, you can see what leagues the user is apart of without clicking on their name. Having many League personnel, quick views are easier to look at.

TBA Feature at the League Level
Having the option to turn TBA on or off at the league level of the system instead of the game level. This could prevent any "misses" by the assignor.

Member Directory - "All Officials" Hidden Option
Have an option in the System Settings that will hide the directory for "All Officials" to regular members. When having so many officials in the system, it helps privacy issues when dealing with multiple leagues.

Revamp Adding Games
When adding games manually, can it start with "Game Code" then the leagues that are available for that game code will generate. Then you pick a league and the teams will generate from that.
Dealing with multiple leagues and so many different team names, this would limit the scrolling through all the teams.

Shows # of umpires on External public view (website integration) once published
Similar to this idea
https://horizonwebref.uservoice.com/forums/66397-feature-requests/suggestions/6959138-show-of-official-positions-on-public-schedule available here.
The setup Allowing to show # of umpires in the system does not appear to translate to the following view.
However make it available to the external public <iframe id="SCHD" name="SCHD" style="width:100%;height:1500px;border:0;" FRAMEBORDER="0" MARGINWIDTH="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" SCROLLING="AUTO" src="http://external.horizonwebref.com/scheduleExternal.hwr?asn=205937&enc=1a76c2bbec987ea6a2c2f5145c0a3c04f5564fd1&primary=003366&secondary=DF6F1D"></iframe>

Game History
It would be helpful to be able to keep a history of a game that logs changes to the game. So I can look back and see what day it was originally scheduled for or if the level changed. its easier than having to remember and track changes on my own. thanks
