Become a Referee

Spring 2023 Referee Grassroots Training Class

Interested in becoming a Referee?

SASC players (also parents and coaches) are welcome to participate in an upcoming Grassroots Entry Level Referee training class.

For the players, this is a great opportunity for a well paying job where they can not only get valuable job experience (resumes, job reference, etc) but also manage/organize a work schedule. As a bonus, they'll hopefully understand the game in a different way and for sure develop greater respect for the referees that officiate the games they are playing in.

Here are the steps if interested:
  • Follow the instructions at https://www.cnra.net/new-referee/ to create an account with US Soccer Learning Center
    • The student must have turned 13 years old before registering for the class
    • For those 18 years or older, you'll also need to complete a SafeSport / Background check. It can take 5-10 days to clear a background check

  • Once account registration is complete, sign up for an online course and its associated field clinic
    • Cost is $75.00 for youth (adults requiring background check are $30 more). This includes the USSF 2023 license

  • The student must finish all modules (approximately 7-8 hours) and pass the test before attending their field clinic

  • The next available field clinic details are as follows:
    • Date: May 5, 2023, 4:30pm - 7:30pm (arrive 15 min early)
    • Location: Nimitz Elementary School, 545 E. Cheyenne Dr, Sunnyvale CA 94087
    • Please come in athletic attire and bring water, whistle & AR flags if possible

    • (Note the 4/21 field clinic is full)
Please contact referee@sunnyvalesoccer.org if you have any questions.
