Hi,
I'm looking for midweek games to do every now and then, or everyweek, however I'm struggling to find leagues that do midweek games. One league I have found is the isthmian U18 as my friend plays for Chipstead, but I can't find how to contact to get on their list of referees. If anyone can help me with this contact, or finding any leagues that play midweek south east London area, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Albert.

Easiest thing to do here I think would be to use the League's contact page on their FA Full Time site. Failing that, (and probably a quicker way) just go along to one of their games and speak to one of the officials on it!

Every youth league has it's own way of appointing match officials. Some have an actual appointments officer but I'd guess many don't and leave it to the home club to find a referee. My two local youth league teams for instance, "appoint" 3 officials for each home game by asking for availability on a Whatsapp group that a pool of us have subscribed to.

It should be easy for you to start being involved in your local youth league if you really want to be. ;)

Edited to add: Provided you have an up to date DBS.

Okay thank you I'll try getting in contact with them, if not maybe asking one of the coaches directly if they ever need a ref im available.
