Where Do You Start?
You start by completing the registration form, paying the appropriate fee (fees can vary from $20 to $30 depending when, where and how many are doing the course) and attending an approved course run by experienced referees in your region. The club would like to help with enital theory work as the individual will be tested on the following in a course:
- Knowledge of the Laws of Volleyball (Test)
- Completing a theoretical scoresheet (Test)
- Practical performance as a First Referee
- Practical performance as a Second Referee
- Practical performance as a scorer in a match.
Obviously, not all of this is done at the first course that you attend. Over time, you have the chance to be assessed and graded.
Once you're on your way, take every opportunity to officiate at matches and improve your skill level.
We as a club can organise nights where groups can get together for refereeing theorictical tests with approved referees. Or notify when the next Referee's course is.
