Introducing our new series: Official of the Month — where we’ll highlight a new official each month. Many of them work higher level sports and some don’t (yet).

Our first honoree is John Burns.

John is Kansas State High School Activities Association registered in basketball and softball. But he’s worked those and others with TPUA.

Read more about him here and stay tuned for updates on upcoming officiating clinics.
