Hi Everyone,
I've been thinking about it for months and I've finally bitten the bullet and signed up to be a referee in the SFA - my course starts in August to become a Category 7 Referee assuming I pass. I'm 20 (a whole fifth of a century!) so I hope I can do this for years to come.
I was wondering if any of you could give me any tips on fitness and what to prepare for coming into the course? I've started going runs every second day (since Saturday I have ran 6.56 miles according to Endomondo).
Could you please help on telling me how refereeing a match happens? In Scotland there seems to be thousands of league associations e.g how do I start officiating these games or does this get assigned to me automatically at the end of the course?
Is there anything else I should do?
