More and more people of all ages, genders, races and abilities are getting into refereeing.
In order to become a qualified referee, you will need to take part in a FA Basic Referee Course.
The course will provide you with an introduction to the ‘Laws of the Game’ as well as developing the practical skills required to be a football referee.
Once completed, you will be registered as a Lincolnshire FA referee and will have obtained a qualification recognised throughout the country.
To become a referee you must be at least 14 years old and a resident of England.
