Maia Chaka made history prior to the 2021 NFL season, when she became the first African-American woman hired as an on-field official for NFL games. The Norfolk State University graduate began her climb to the NFL in 2007 by officiating high school games, eventually making her way to NCAA Division-I fields, and ultimately NFL stadiums. When she is not making split second decisions on the football field, she is back home in Hampton Roads molding young minds with An Achievable Dream Academy. Chaka will join #HallCall to talk about her first year with the NFL and her continued commitment to community.
