Over the next two months, a series of courses have been set up by the Birmingham County Football Association to provide you with the opportunity to start your referee journey.

There are 8 courses available across the county in three different areas:

• The FA Referee Course
• The FA Mini Soccer Referee Course
• The FA Course for Mini Soccer Referees Conversion to 9v9 or 11v11 refereeing

Why should you get into refereeing?

• Give something back to the game you love.
• A great way to remain active in the game after injury or retirement.
• Play a huge role in ensuring the players, and supporters, enjoy their match day experience.
