US Soccer has revamped the referee training program which
has opened up many more opportunities for those interested in becoming a
referee here in Deridder. BUSA will
still have the club referee training however we encourage anyone interested to complete
the new Grassroots referee
program. This program has a mandatory
online portion which is managed by US Soccer and then an “on-field” portion
that is conducted by individual state associations.
This new first time referee course has online assignments and an in-person session that will provide “Grassroots” referee certification. Note: While Covid19 restrictions are in place, the “in-person” session will be conducted “virtually” using ZOOM.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
1. SIGN-UP and create a profile in US Soccer’s Learning Center. (https://learning.ussoccer.com)
2. Find and REGISTER for a course in the Learning Center.
3. Complete all course ASSIGNMENTS.
Minimum age for referees is 13
