# Rule 3.2 Chief of Referees (Four-wall)

The Chief of Referees is in charge of all aspects of tournament referees, including assigning referees to all tournament matches, as well as all aspects relating to the interpretation and application of the USHA rules. Whereas the tournament director has final authority in all aspects of the tournament, the Chief of Referees is chosen for USHA rules knowledge and should be consulted for official rulings. In the absence of a Chief of Referees the tournament director assumes all responsibility.
