Becoming an Accredited Referee

• Attending a state referee seminar is the first step in becoming an accredited referee. The four-levels of accreditation include Emerging, State C, State B, and State A.

• After attending a state referee seminar, the next step is to complete a number of online referee exams. Details on these exams will be provided at the conclusion of the referee seminar.

• Each year, in order to maintain or progress through the various levels of referee accreditations, referees are required to attend a minus number of tournaments, referee a minimum number of bouts as a centre referee and table official.
