How to locally develop refereeing?

Developpment of referees constitutes a bottle-neck for every club growth.

For sustained local development, 3 aspects should be considered:

 FORM

- Monthly initiation courses over the season (Club)

- Free courses of short duration (Club)

-Yearly F.I.T. referee clinic (Touch Canada)

FOLLOW

- Grow knowledge & confidence throughout local leagues.

- Get advantage of tournaments to practice refereeing and get feedbacks from highly experienced referees.

 REWARD

Promote refereeing by recompensate individual commitment (i.e. voucher at the end of the season)
