Football Far North Coast is encouraging Women and Girls (aged 13 years and over in 2023) to take up the whistle this season. With the FIFA Women’s World Cup being held in Australia and New Zealand later this year, the interest in Women’s Football has never been bigger and we need more referees to continue to grow the female game locally.

Participants of the course will become qualified as an active referee and will receive all referee clothing and equipment at NO COST through the Women in Football Scholarship Program.

Participants will receive;

Level 4 Referee Course materials
Laws of the Game Book
Professional Referee Whistle
Assistant Referee Flag
First year referee green shirt
Black Umbro on-field Shorts
Black Umbro on-field Socks
Set of Red and Yellow Cards
Match Record Book and Inserts
2023 Match Official Registration with FFNC
