Referees

The BCGFL aims to provide opportunities for young referees, both male and female, to learn and develop in a positive environment. 

 

Whether you wish to referee the U18’s or the U9’s, act as an assistant for the cup matches or as a mentor we are always looking for more referees to join our team of referees.

 

To find more about refereeing in our league please contact our Referees Secretary, Natasha Loughrey, at  berkshiregirlsrefallocation@gmail.com.

U18 Referee Armbands

Every U18 Referee within the club will be asked to wear a yellow U18 Referee armband whenever they officiate, with the armbands highlighting to all managers, coaches, parents and spectators that their referee is under 18 and they should refrain from making any remarks towards the young official.

 

We are keen to do what we can as a league to help protect our young referees from abuse, from players, coaches, and parents. We hope the armbands will remind everyone that these referees are still children and think twice before criticising their performance remembering that they are still learning too. We take this behaviour seriously and want to keep the referees loving the game of football.

 

To obtain a yellow armband please contact our Referees Secretary, Natasha Loughrey, at  berkshiregirlsrefallocation@gmail.com.
