The Easton Redding United Soccer Club is always interested in encouraging adults or young men and women to become soccer referees. In addition to being fun and getting paid for it, refereeing deepens one’s knowledge and understanding of soccer, as well as contributing to the game.
Entry-level referee training in Connecticut for 2010 will be offered for the U.S. Soccer Federation Grade 8. Grade 8 referees are qualified to ref as a center referee or assistant referee in travel league games up to U16. Candidates must be thirteen years of age by June 30 of 2010 to qualify. The training for entry-level candidates for Grade 8 referees has been newly revised. Most of the training will be done on-line, with a mandatory clinic at the end. Information on the training, and instructions on how to begin, are in th following document, which can also be found at ctreferee.net:
