The referee’s job is to be the official in charge of the game. A referee’s authority extends to everyone at the field, including players, substitutes, team officials, spectators, and even assistant referees. AYSO Referees keep the game safe, fair and fun for everyone: the players, the coaches, the spectators, and themselves!
This is an opportunity to further develop your referee skills in classes taught by some of Southern California's top instructors. The Intermediate and Advanced courses are especially timely, given several important Law changes this year.
One day courses typically include Regional Referee and the Basic Referee Companion Course. The Intermediate, Advanced and National Referee courses, along with Referee Instructor and Referee Assessor courses, require two days of instruction.
