Referee Resources

Want To Be A Referee?

You've played the game, and now you have the opportunity to join a new team, one that wears yellow uniforms with black stripes.  Becoming a referee is easy!

Take a class; pass an exam; and you can qualify to start working youth games in recreational and competitive leagues.

There are three very good reasons to become a referee:


1) Make Money Participating In A Sport You Love. 

Fees for games range anywhere from $10 to $80 per game, depending on the league and age level.  Gain experience and in time you will qualify to work more challenging and higher-paying games.




2) Be Your Own Boss.

Referees are assigned to games only when they are available. As a referee, you are free to work as many or as few games as you like.



3) Learn Life Skills.

These refereeing skills will help you in life: Communication, Time & People Management, and Decision-Making Under Pressure. Many players find that refereeing makes them better players.
