There are two stages to becoming a Kent FA qualified referee

If you would like to become a Kent FA Referee, you must firstly attend a 'Get into Refereeing' Workshop.

This is a two-hour Workshop, and they are held around the County on a midweek evening.

Get Into Refereeing WorkshopS

In order to qualify to attend a Referee Course, the ‘Get into Refereeing’ (GIR) Workshop is a pre-requisite and forms Unit 1 of the Course.

Completing this pre-requisite online workshop will then permit you to enrol onto a forthcoming referee course; details of forthcoming ‘GIR’ workshops are detailed below;

Upcoming dates:

• 31/7 @ Dartford Football Club
• 6/8 @ Kent FA
• 7/8 @ Canterbury Christ Church University 
• Other dates TBC

Book your place

To enrol, you must enter your own FAN number, or create one if you do not have one. If you are booking on behalf of somebody else, please ensure you enter the details of the candidate who wishes to enrol onto the course, and not your own!

Course dates will be shared as soon as they are organised, and will be sent to the those who have attended the ‘GiR’ workshop.

Courses last for two full days, predominantly on weekends; they will need to run on a minimum of 12 candidates, and cost per candidate will be £135.
