Interested in becoming a soccer referee? If you are 14 years old or older then register for an upcoming Novice Referee Clinic !!
Strongsvillle January 28th
Twinsburg February 11th
Akron March 3rd
The list of upcoming Clinics can be found here: http://www.ohnrefs.org/index.cfm?template=event&form_event_cat_id=2
This is the first step in becoming a soccer referee at any level, including high school and college. This course is a combination of online learning and testing, plus a 1-day in-person class that covers the more complicated parts of officiating and clears up any mis-understandings from the online part. The total time required is about 8 hours online, while the in-person class runs from 8am to 5pm with a break for lunch. The candidate must successfully complete the online portion before coming to the in-person class, and then must pass a test covering both portions of the course.
Of course, there are also additional costs for uniforms and equipment which vary with the quality of the items purchased.

Additionally, please contact Greg McDevitt if you plan on officiating with the Cuyahoga Falls Soccer Club this spring season.
