Community Referee (formerly Level 0) Accreditation – Duration 3 hours.
Referees will undertake a 3 hour rules and mechanics update. A basic exam is required to be completed and referees must be assessed as competent in basic mechanics, recognizing and call most violations and fouls. Referees must be capable of controlling a game at a local junior level.
Level 1 Referee Course Accreditation – Duration Approx 8-10 hours.
To advance to the next level of accreditation, referees must attend a level 1 referee course. These courses are usually run either on a weekend or over a number of nights and take approximately 8-10 hours to complete.
