The SCCRA 2023 referee course will be held on Saturdays 14th and 21st February.
The course is open to young people and adults - min age requirements applies (must turn 13yrs or older before 30th June, 2026). Some special arrangements will be made for any adults wishing to attend.
On Sat 28th, a couple of clubs hold internal “club days” with teams from within the club playing each other.
Over the past few years, we have been able to take our new referees and give them some “hands on” experience and training on these games. This has proven to be invaluable for new referees. If clubs make this available to us again this year, we will invite all new referees to attend. It is NOT a compulsory part of the course, however it is wise to attend. You would be invited to come for about 90 minutes and will give you a time slot if you indicate that you will attend.
​
The two Saturday course sessions (14th and 21st Feb) will run from 8.30am to 3pm.
Attendance is required at each of these sessions.
​​
Both Saturday sessions will be held in the upstairs hall at New Life Church, Nambour (located at Nambour Christian College).
​​
Course Cost
The course cost is $300 . Included in this cost is the course itself, morning tea and lunch on both Saturdays, referee shirt, referee shorts, sox, cap, referee starter kit (set of flags, whistle, notebook, cards), referee registration.

​​
We don’t want anyone to miss out because of the cost, so if the cost is a genuine problem, please discuss this with us. The course cost will be reduced also for any second member of a family attending the course.

Refereeing
It is assumed that everyone doing the course will be available to referee in the SCCSA competition. If this is NOT the case for you, please advise on the first day of the course BEFORE you make any course payments (because if you aren’t going to referee, you won’t need the uniform and referee registration fee).
