Become a Soccer Referee

Becoming a Soccer Referee is an interesting and fun experience, and is also a good way to make to some money on the weekends, while staying active. Referees start at 14 years of age, and can continue refereeing for most of their life.

Referees are assigned games based on their age and experience. So if you are a teenager, you will be refereeing mostly under 12 games. As you progress you will be assigned more challenging games.
