A Level 1 referee course is being planned for Sunday 15 April at Garioch RFC in Inverurie.
Interested in becoming a referee? Passing a Level 1 refereeing course qualifies you to referee school and club rugby matches - as well as joining your local referee society.
Whether you aspire to becoming an international referee, officiate in our region, support your own club or just become more knowledgeable in the laws of the game, this one-day session is the first step and a great way to develop your skills.
You must complete the World RugbyReady online assessment before attending a Level 1 course.
The Level 1 course is 6 hours in total and is mainly classroom based with some practical elements. The course is free but should you wish to referee for your local referee society, you will be asked to pay the annual subscription. After you have completed the course and passed the exam you are required to do an on-field assessment. This can be arranged through your local referee society. With all this successfully completed you are licensed to referee up to Regional League 2, schools and youth rugby.
