Become a referee
Give back, stay active, get paid
Refereeing builds leadership, confidence and conflict-resolution skills that help in every part of life. There are three main paths, depending on your experience.
SAY / Recreational
The best place to start. Our beginning youth leagues offer a relaxed setting to learn the game and the rules. Each local SAY area runs its own certification and on-field training.
Find your SAY areaUSSF (club soccer)
Certifies you for club and higher-level games across the U.S. Online training and testing plus one on-field session. You can make up to $400 a weekend working 4–5 tournament games.
MWSOA OSSRCHigh school
Middle school, JV and varsity games for girls and boys. Varsity calls for strong knowledge of the game and good fitness. Many refs move up from USSF, and older players and parents often start here.
