MWFRA Referee

U12 – PL, W12 – WP

The MWFRA endeavours to supply an official referee to every Youth, PL, WPL, AL1, WAL1, WAL2+ and W035 games. In the event that no referee is available it is the responsibility of the home team to supply a referee.

The MWFRA runs Level 4 (entry level) referee courses each year before the start of the season. Dates and more information can be found on the MWFRA site.

The MWFA also runs a short course for parents of U12-U16 for those times when an official referee is not available. Dates for these will also be advertised once available.


Game Leader

U6 – U11

U6-U11 teams are refereed by Game Leaders. Each team must have at least 1 Game Leader. The MWFA holds short courses for parents who wish to act as Game Leaders.

These courses run for approximately 60 minutes and cover the rules, practical scenarios and provide Q&A opportunities.

Further information can *soon* be found on the Game Leaders page or on the MWFA site.


Team Referee

AL2+, O35, O45

All AL2+, O35 and O45 must supply 2 accredited and registered referees. These team referees are required to officiate at the game before or after their own when they are the AWAY team.
