Terms of service

The rules for using the SEMVOG website and registering to officiate SEMVOG events.

Effective September 30, 2026

Agreement to these terms

This website is operated by South East Michigan Volleyball Officials Group LLC ("SEMVOG," "we," or "us"). By using this site, registering for an event, or submitting any form, you agree to these terms and to our privacy policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Who may register

You must be at least 18 years old to register as an official, unless SEMVOG approves otherwise. Officials must meet the requirements for each event, including a current AAU membership, any required background screening, and training for new officials, as described on our certification page.

Accurate information

When you register or submit a form, you agree that:

  • The information you provide is true, current, and complete
  • Any AAU membership card photo you submit is your own card, unaltered, and currently valid
  • You will let us know promptly if your information changes, including if your membership lapses

Submitting false information or an altered or borrowed membership card may result in removal from assignments and from future SEMVOG events.

Registration and assignments

Registering for an event tells us you are available to work it. It does not guarantee an assignment. SEMVOG makes assignments at its discretion based on event needs, certification, experience, and availability.

If you can no longer work an event after registering or accepting an assignment, notify us as soon as possible so the event can be restaffed.

Independent contractors

Officials work SEMVOG events as independent contractors, not as employees of SEMVOG or of any event promoter. Pay rates, payroll, and tax forms are handled through 3Step Sports LLC under the agreements you complete with them.

Conduct

Officials represent SEMVOG and the game at every event. You agree to conduct yourself professionally, follow the rules and policies of AAU, USA Volleyball, SafeSport, and each event, and treat players, coaches, spectators, and fellow officials with respect. SEMVOG may remove any official from assignments for conduct that does not meet these standards.

Event information

We work to keep schedules, locations, times, and requirements accurate, but events may change or be canceled. The information on this site is provided for convenience, and the event promoter's final details control.
