⚽ Think there are only two teams on the soccer field? Think again!
Every soccer match actually has THREE teams—the two competing teams and the referee team! Referees are a vital part of every game, helping keep matches safe, fair, and fun for everyone.
🏆 Now it's your chance to become part of the game!
Our local soccer community needs more referees, and we're excited to host a US Soccer Referee Certification Course right here in Redding! Whether you're a player, parent, former player, or someone looking to stay connected to the sport, this is a great opportunity to learn a new skill, give back to the game, and even earn money while doing something you love.
