In all UIL varsity athletic team contests, a game administrator shall be appointed by the home school. That person must be a coach (other than the game coach), teacher, or administrator. It is recommended that a game administrator be designated by the home school for all non-varsity athletic team contests. The responsibilities of the game administrator are as follows:
- Meet with the officials prior to game time (preferably on the playing field or court); If officials are not notified by the designee by ten minutes prior to beginning of a game, the referee shall ask the home head coach if there is a designee and if so, who that person is.
- See that officials are directed to their dressing room;
- If there is no designated administrator, the officials shall inform the UIL in writing the next working day.
- Inform the officials where the game administrator will be seated.
- Assist the officials if they need to discourage unsportsmanlike conduct of a fan, player, or coach (such as removal from stadium or gym).
- Check with the officials after the game to see if there is any misconduct that needs to be reported;
- Offer to provide an escort for the officials to their cars.
- Report incidents to the appropriate school administrator (home team or visitor).
- Report severe verbal abuse or physical contact of the official and any ejections of coaches and fans to the UIL office in writing within the next three working days.
- The home school is responsible for security. In playoff games/matches, both schools are responsible.
- In playoff games/matches both schools shall have a game administrator
