How To Become A Region 9 Referee

These are Instructions for New Referees

(Returning Referees Should Follow the Instructions:  Returning Referee Instructions)

1.    Register to Volunteer with AYSO as a referee, www.eayso.org.

2.    Register for your Referee Training Class and attend the class.

3.    Schedule your games

These steps are described in detail below.  We suggest you print this web page for your reference.  We regret so many steps are required, but we are a very large youth soccer organization with over a thousand volunteers of one sort or another, and we need to make sure everyone is properly identified and trained.  Thank you for your cooperation.

Step 1 - Register as an AYSO Volunteer

Go to www.eayso.org.

Log in if you are a returning volunteer, or click "First Time" if you are a new volunteer. Remember to record the e-mail address and password you used as this will be necessary during future seasons and to schedule your matches as a referee. Please do not register as a new volunteere if you have registered before as this will cause you to lose track of your training certificaitons.

Complete the registration process, making sure you check the Volunteer Position box "Referee" so you will have access to the Referee Scheduling Module.

At the very end you will be asked to print a copy of your Volunteer Registration Form, which you must submit at the referee taining class or the Returning Referee Meeting. Print and save the final Volunteere Registration Form.

Step 2 - Register For your Referee Training Course

Step 3 - Submit your Volunteer Registration Form

You may submit your Volunteer Registration Form at your Referee Training Course, at the Returning Referee Meeting, or to an authorized AYSO Board Member at the fields.  Please understand you will not have access to the Referee Scheduling Modcule until this AYSO Volunteer Registration Form is submitted and processed.
