Is your Child, or are you, interested in becoming an accredited Ontario Soccer Match Official?  

Each year, more youth and adults are drawn to refereeing as a hobby or side job during soccer season. Referee clinics are held every spring and typically include both in-class and on-field training components.

This webpage and the subpages in the drop-down menu have been designed to become an ever-growing resource to assist those interested in pursuing officiating, and those who would like to know more about the rules involved with the game of soccer in Ontario.

Hopefully, this creates a new pathway for opportunities in soccer or helps you gain a deeper understanding of the game!
