Refs

The Club is interested in developing referees as well as players. Refereeing is a great way to advance your enjoyment of the game. Players can gain a diferent perspective of the game, develop a better knowledge of the game, and earn a few bucks as well.

The club offers young referees an opportunity to gain on field experience in club matches. We also promote any referee training opportunities avaiable. The Club has established a young referee sponsorship program to assist a with the costs of becoming a licenced referee. Drop us an email and check the IYSA referree page for referee course updates.
