Welcome to the WSA "Blackshirt" Soccer Referee Program (for REC games only):
Westport Soccer's "Blackshirt" (non-certified, Rec games only) referee program is a terrific opportunity for our youth (age 12 and older) to get involved, gain valuable experience, build confidence and make money too! Blackshirts are entry-level, non-certified referees and can only officiate WSA REC intramural games on Saturdays (no Travel games ). Pre-season referee training is held in April and September and led by adult USSF certified referee mentors. No experience is necessary, however, it's essential to understand the Laws of the Game and enjoy what you're doing. There's lots to learn and never a dull moment in each game. Check out more details below.
To receive game assignments in Westport, you need to contact WSA Referee Assignor, Kathleen Galley, [email protected]
We look forward to working with you.
