Friend Other Officials
Create a system where officials who know each other can friend each other on the website/app, and request each other for games, allowing greater opportunities for meetups between knowing officials and carpools for officials who can't drive themselves.

allows teams to check if refs are assigned to their games
As our associations use different software to schedule games and sometimes information from association to ref assignors gets missed, we require coaches to check 3 to 4 days before game date/time to make sure game is in the system(minimal info required). Our ref association had this in their previous software and it would be very helpful.
Essentially, all that is required is a listing of games in your system sorted by date.
You could have a page designed with an input field of association, level of play and date, and the output would be a simple list of date/time, game…
1 voteThis functionality already exists via the Coach user account type on our system which is designed to allow coaches (or team personnel) to check whether their games are assigned.

Make availability calendars OPEN by default instead of closed.
Make the default setting on officials availability calanders as OPEN instead of closed. This would make assigning so much easier than having officals to go in and manually open up dates
1 voteUnfortunately, this is something we will not be implementing at this time. You may see details on the reasoning at the link below. Thanks for submitting an idea.

Umpire Profile/History
I would like a spot to put in information about an umpires history/experience. Maybe a "Bio" section? Something that either the umpire or the admin could update and then when two umpires have never worked together before, they can go to this information and have an idea of who they will be working with (as an umpire). So a spot that umpires or admin could put past umping experiences and levels. ie - worked the 1999 Little league world series, or has umpired at the high school level, etc. Basically a way to list an umpires experience.

Game details in assignment notice
Referees need to see the game details to know if they need to look at the game faster. If they see the game is in the next few days, they know to login immediately confirm. If it's just the normal informationless indication that doesn't convey an urgent need to login right away, that makes extra work for the assignor chasing them to reply.
The previous reason for declining this at https://horizonwebref.uservoice.com/forums/66397-feature-requests/suggestions/1536029-have-the-game-details-in-the-email-that-is-sent-ou was poor. This should be a group setting decision based on what the group thinks is best for their needs.

Email notifications
I know that game notifications are emailed out day of games as well as 3 days prior. However, we are noticing that these are only published games. Is there a way to get the notifications out regardless of published or unpublished?
Thank 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.

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.

Assignment Larger acceptance / rejection buttons/icons
The acceptance and rejection of game buttons are very small and very close together. It would be very easy to hit the wrong button. Especially with fingers on a touch device.
4 votesUnfortunately, we’ve decided not to incorporate this at this time. Our touch device interfaces already feature larger icons and we don’t plan to change the desktop / laptop icon sizes at this time. Thanks for submitting an idea.

Archive officials who have left the association (in case they decide to come back).
We have officials that have decided to leave the association that may decide to come back. Instead of deleting them, can we have a feature to archive them so we can re-add them to the membership directory.
1 voteThis functionality already exists either by setting the user to a Not Ready status or simply by deactivating / deleting the user. Deleting / deactivating a user will still allow you to re-add the user later at some point and nearly all of their history will return.

Allow admin to create custom form or document that users must agree to before access given (or re-given) to the system.
If a particular league has rules or guidelines that officials must agree to before being allowed to take games, have this form built into Horizon so administrators can easily track responses.
1 voteThis functionality already exists via our “Association Policy” feature in your System Settings. This policy requires your officials to accept the documented policy prior to them gaining access to your system.
