[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD stopped reffing because of scheduling conflicts with her soccer games and tournaments. She couldn't ref enough games to cover the recertification costs and make it somewhat worthwhile.[/quote] This is effectively why leagues don’t cover the cost of certification/recertification. They would end up with a bunch of people holding onto certifications indefinitely at the league’s expense when they don’t plan to ref enough to make it worthwhile.[/quote] That’s why I think reimbursing after X number of games completed is best. [/quote] The best would be to not require refs to be re-certified at certain ages and levels. [/quote] Actually, I think it's important for referees to retest every year. It's a great refresher and there are usually law changes to learn as well.[/quote]
