Referees
SUPPORTING AND DEVELOPING OUR OFFICIALS
Ever tried playing a game of football without a referee? It's difficult, right...?
There is no game of football without a referee. Although it can be a thankless task on occasion, with the right support and training it can be a very rewarded one. Match officials are often front row for some of the best goals, set pieces and brilliant moments of football.
Referees are vital role in the game, and the demand for match officials is increasing.
At the Kent FA, our Referee Development aim to recruit, support and enable a fantastic group of highly motivated and talented, FA qualified referees! As our referees gain experience, there are further opportunities to aid their development and progression, such as appointments to adult and youth County Cup ties, together with games in certain FA competitions.
