Referee Program


If you have a passion for soccer, becoming a referee with Parkland Soccer could be a great option for you.  This is a great way to get involved the soccer program, meet some new people, and earn some extra money in the evenings or on the weekends! All of our referees are certified through the U.S. Soccer Federation.

All referees (new or returning) need to complete the online portion of the certification process and pass the test at https://flsrc.omgtsys.com/AvailableClinics.aspx
All referees then must register for an in-person class, which will include some field work.
