The CFOA has a number of awards that recognize our members accomplishments both on and off the field.
Moe Ridgeway Award
The Moe Ridgeway award recognizes exemplary service to the CFOA over a significant period of time. Contributions through activities such as executive participation, training and mentoring, rating, and overall leadership. The executive looks beyond on-field service and accomplishments when choosing recipients for this award. It is worth noting that this award is awarded when merited – not necessarily annually.
Award Winners
Lorne Larson Junior Official Award
The Lorne Larson award is given annually to an official who has not achieved an on-field assignment at the CJFL or CIS level. It is typically awarded to a junior official whom has shown significant improvement in on-field performance and has performed at a higher level than his or her peers.
