2023-24 Edmonton Federation Hockey League Referee Rates

Please refer to the 2023-2024 Edmonton Federation Hockey League Referee Rates for up to date rates on referee fees.

Referees in Chief are listed on the rate sheet. They would be the contacts you would use if you are required to reschedule referees for game changes.

Referee Fees

Teams are required to pay 50% of the referee fees at each game. Referees do not carry change, so be prepared to have the proper amount for payment.

U9 teams

Referees officiating for U9 games are paid $20 each. If you have two referees, each team will pay $20. If you have three referees, each team will pay $30. Do not pay a referee $30 if you only have two referees show up. This is not the correct rate. Receipts for referees will be required for all U9 games - and we must have one receipt from each referee showing $20. If you pay $30 to a referee, but only had two referees show up, EGHA will not reimburse the extra $10 paid.

Referee Fee Reimbursement

Teams may submit for referee fee reimbursements 3 times per season:

end of November for games in October and November
end of January for games in December and January
end of March for games in February and March, including playoffs *Note: the last reimbursement may be held until equipment and jerseys have been returned to EGHA at the end of the season

To submit a request for reimbursement, please have the Team Manager and/or Treasurer submit a list of referee fees paid with the following:

Date of Game
Game number
Location played
amount paid

Please indicate if the payment should be sent by cheque (please provide a mailing address) or by etransfer (please provide the email address).

If you have questions on the referee fee reimbursement, please email treasurer@egha.ab.ca.
