Dues
PNBOA Dues
The board is excited to announce that our finances remain strong and we will be waiving PNBOA membership dues for the 2025-26 season.
WOA Dues
WOA dues are automatically deducted from payments made via Arbiterpay – PNBOA has no control over that. WOA dues cover, among other things – liability insurance and NASO membership.
NEW FOR 2025-26 — WOA Dues DO NOT provide you with free access to State Tournament events. There will be an added $15 fee if you would like a state tournament pass and passes to WIAA state tournament contests.
All WOA members pay an $80 registration fee that covers all sports and is charged when you work your first sport of the school year – so if you are officiating a WOA fall sport you likely have already been charged this fee.
WOA basketball officials pay a $38 basketball sport fee.
So, if you are only officiating basketball for WOA, you will see a $118 deduction from Arbiterpay payments starting with payments made this week.
You can find this under Payments in Arbiter. How WOA does the transactions has always confused me, .but even though you see multiple entries in Arbiter for the charges – there will only be 1 deduction of $118.
If you see something different, contact WOA, not PNBOA, we have no control over this.
