Interested in becoming a ref?  
Here are the basic requirements for FM Soccer recreation league refs:
- Age 14 or older
- Have good knowledge of soccer rules and play. Typical student refs will have played a number of seasons on rec, school, or club teams.
- Willing to learn 

We usually start looking for interested students about two months before the season starts, which would be July for the Fall season and March for the Spring season.  

Inquire about open positions by email to the ref coordinator using the link here
