Attention Aspiring Soccer Referees!

We are always looking for referees. All new candidates must be certified before they can begin working. The North Carolina Soccer Referee Association (NCSRA) manages the certification process, which includes completing all online coursework. NCSRA also offers an outreach program that can help cover the cost of your certification and referee uniform starter kit as a new referee, reach out to your local referee assignor for additional details.

To become certified:

  1. Complete the required online coursework.
  2. Pass the final certification test.

Once certified, you will be eligible to work as a referee for local games and tournaments. This is a great opportunity to be involved in the sport, earn money, and develop a valuable skill set.

For more information, visit the NCSRA website or reach out to us with any questions. We look forward to seeing you on the pitch!
