The Meet Referee for the Senior Metropolitan Championships is selected by the Officials Committee. In accordance with USA Swimming guidelines, Meet Referees must hold at least an  N2 Deck Referee certification and be certified as an  N3 Stroke and Turn official. The committee strives to rotate this appointment among qualified referees throughout the LSC to provide diverse opportunities. Additionally, to ensure fair rotation and fresh perspectives, there is a  5-year limit on re-appointment of previous Meet Referees whenever possible.

Team Lead Positions, such as Chief Judge, Deck Referee, Starter, and Admin Referee, are selected by the Meet Referee, Officials Chair, and Administrative Vice Chair to ensure a well-rounded and experienced officiating team is in place for the meet.
