[quote=SoccerRef][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, I know this is going to sound whiny and unproductive, but do refs have to have any formal training, or any fitness requirements? Ugh...crappy first weekend with a ref that was too slow to do U8 doing a highly competitive older game, and seemingly taking wild guesses on every call. [/quote] To be a Grade 8 ref, which is basically the entry level and comprises about 95% of the refs you'll see, you need to take a six hour class, and pass the test with a 75% or higher. No fitness test. No game evaluation. It's not until you want to upgrade to a Grade 7 that you need to pass a fitness test, and pass a game assessment. [/quote]
