WANTED:

If you would like to consider becoming a referee, you need to be able to answer "yes" to the following questions:
1. Are you at least 14 years of age?
2. Are you reasonably fit?
3. Is your eyesight O. K.? (with spectacles or contact lenses if worn)

If you are able to answer "yes" to all of those questions, you now need to find the local instructor, who will be almost certainly attached to your local Referees Association branch.

Elsewhere on this site you can see the R.A. branches that have their own web pages and the contact details for each of them.

If you are close to one of the listed branches, please call them and ask about local courses.

If not, find the number of your local County Football Association from their web-site or via the telephone directory (look for the County name, e.g. Staffordshire F.A.). They will give you the local Training Officer's contact details.

- Most courses last for around nine evenings, including two examinations
- Usually one or two evenings per week
- Classroom-based
- Free tuition and examination, small fee for registering as a referee with the County F.A.
- Qualified to referee in local matches (Youth football if under 16) when you pass the examination
- Course run throughout the season, plus summer courses in some areas
