– Speaking to Football Zebras, XFL Head of Officiating Dean Blandino announced that every officiating crew will have one woman as part of a “concerted effort” to have a more diverse officiating staff in the XFL.
Blandino stated on the subject, “We’re trying to create more opportunities for female officials and minority officials. The XFL is going to be a showcase for officials all over the country to get more looks and potentially have the NFL look at them. So, we’re going to put together an inclusive [officiating] staff.”
The women working alongside the XFL crews are line judge Maia Chaka and side judge LaShell Nelson from Conference USA, line judge Robin DeLorenzo and center judge Amanda Sauer-Cook from the Big Ten officiating consortium, and field judge Sebrina Brunson and head line judge Tangela Mitchell from the Southwestern Athletic Conference. Terri Valenti, who is an NFL replay official, will be working in the replay booth for the XFL.
