") How many attempts do I have to take the fitness test in the Women’s Game? A) The fitness test can be taken a maximum of once per month (Total 2 attempts). It is not possible to complete the Women’s Game fitness test in September but a mop-up will be offered in December. " Is the official...

Can't confirm the timings - but normally around the end of may/early june as you need to have time to book on a session. They are run with the L4's and also some sessions on their own.

Not forgetting your need the complete the medical certificate as well - the link for all of these should be sent to you on successfully being selected onto the pathway..

Here is the info:

Yes there is a fitness text for all 3w's the criteria to meet is the same as L4 mens, there is a slight increase in the sprint timings "Following recent communication both internally and externally it has been agreed that, as part of the desire and need to raise standards within the Women's...

And a side note - that's when they open the fitness test booking too. (After the assment dates)

To give you an idea of the prices - https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=referee+buzzer+flags&_sop=15

I too use Ervocom flags. There is some cheaper ones on the market - depends on what your looking for and also your budget.

Limited sizes.. But good prices..

From what I understood from the call today is that if you select to become a SAR at L4 then in the future you decide you want to referee again then you can, but it may be a step lower. The aim of it was that some people just want to run the line etc, so instead of having to wait you can select...

Depending on your county/leagues your on, some of them base cup finals on the club marks. So thats another indictor. But as said don't worry too much about club marks. Even at L4+ they are not as important as they used to be. Rememeber a club will probably mark low if they don't win etc..

Middles I would say average is about 2/3 a month. Depends on the Pool your in an the amount of officials in the Pool. Start of the season with the FA competitions there is generally more.

Game 100 is tomorrow night.. ;)

If anything I was probably harsher on the team I covered. Once I started booking the players I knew it was time to take it more seriously. But it was a great experience and while coaching I did it mainly as my son played and no-one else stepped up to help.

I am currently at 96 games - a mix of lines and middles across the mens and womens game. I enjoy the game and if I don't have an "official" appointment I cover games for my local referee secretary.

Great to hear your enjoying it. I started around 20 years ago - initially as the team I played for needed a "club referee" - took the course and reffed for a mate on Sunday mornings. Roll on a few years I then started my progression through the system, while coaching my oldest's team (and having...

Well done on your appointment. The big difference is that you will have neutral assistants. Treat the game as any other game and try to avoid the "external noise". Concentrate on your game and don't get swayed into making a decision by the crowd. Best of luck

The main difference at the National League Level on the womens game I find is the pace of the game. The equilvant level in the mens is much quicker. The womens game I find is more technical and yes you do get less abuse, not saying there is not any. The female pathway is going through lots of...

Hi guys, I know it's been discussed numerous times - but on checking my MOAS I have a new code 99w added to my list - never seen that one before: Match Official (4, 4A, 4B, 4SL, 33, 3WD, 99w) Any ideas I know what the others refer to - just curious.. Cheers
