New opportunity to attend an upcoming two-hour Zoom class:
Thursday, April 3 at 7 p.m.
There are three parts to become a certified USSF referee:
1) Online Grassroots Referee Course Module, approximately 4 ½ hours via the US Soccer Federation Learning Center (LC),
2) 2-hour zoom class led by an Eastern New York instructor,
3) 2-hour on-field session, held locally. Upon completion, you will be certified to referee for 2025.
Registrations and payment ($170) are made through the LC. To be admitted to a zoom class, one must first complete the Online Grassroots Referee Course Modules.
At the time of your zoom class, you will get instructions for ordering your referee uniform package online, consisting of 2 shirts, socks, shorts, yellow/red cards, line flags, whistle, flip coin and carrying bag--paid for as part of the course fee.
All this is included in the instructions to be found on the ENY Referee Page:
