THE CHALLENGE

As a referee you will train your reaction time, body language, communication and decision-making skills and you will do a lot of running while developing all these skills. If you like to travel, meet new people, get paid for it, and develop your personal skills – refereeing is for you.

All of a sudden, as a referee you then become centre of attention because you have to make an important decision which leaves one team unhappy with you. This can then escalate during a game where you are threatened by a coach, players or spectators.
