South Sydney Referees are always on the lookout for people interested in training to become referees. You need to be aged 14 years and older as of April 2010, male or female, have played or have never played, we’ll provide you with all the training to get you on the field this season.
Training is conducted in accordance with the ARL’s National Refereeing Accreditation Scheme. Beginning referees will be provided with a workbook along with the laws for International and Modified games. Having studied these, candidates will complete their Level 1 Referees Course over 2 weekend days and one weekday night.
Candidates will then begin refereeing under the watchful eye of an experienced mentor, who will provide them with feedback and suggest areas for further development. After having had a number of written assessments on your refereeing ability, you will be awarded a Level 1 Referees Accreditation.
Development of our referees is ongoing. As part of this process, weekly skills and fitness sessions are held at Snape Oval, Kingsford on Tuesday nights during the season, except on the Tuesdays that our meetings are held.
The Association covers the cost of your training, should you go on to referee for the remainder of the year. Joining the Association will cost you $100 annually. This $100 membership fee can be deducted from your end-of-season match payments and provides you with a number of social activities throughout the year.
