Sports officials are an important part of any sporting event. They help to ensure that the game is played fairly and according to the rules. The three most common sports officials are UPS (3 letters), SCORERS (7 letters), REFS (4 letters), and UMPS (4 letters). UPS are responsible for keeping track of the score, SCORERS record the statistics of the game, REFS enforce the rules, and UMPS make the final decisions on any disputed calls.
