Officials First Assigning is Coming to Montana
USTA Montana is transitioning to Officials First, the USTA’s official assigning platform. By the end of this year, all officiating opportunities will be posted and managed through Officials First, making it easier for both tournament directors and officials to connect.
Until that transition is complete, USTA Montana maintains a current list of certified officials and assists with assigning officials to events across Montana.
