i am looking to get promoted to level 6 next season, how do i go about this and what are the requirements apart from the 5 assessments?
http://www.durhamfa.com/referees/promotionNormally only 3 assessments required Jordan - not 5.
You'll need to officiate in at least 20 matches during the promotion season (normally March to March) and attend a county FA organised training session/seminar which will include a Laws Of The Game test.
Check your county FA's Web site for details.

LEVEL 7 – 6
- Referees must have officiated for a minimum of one Season.
- You must be 16 years old or older.
- You must be officiating in 11-a-side football which consists of players 17 years old and older.
- You must officiate a minimum of 20 11-a-side fixtures (this does not include friendly games) from 1st March 2014 to the last -day in February 2015.
- You must have a minimum of 5 assessments.

- You must ensure you close all unavailable dates.
A bit out of date, but is says 5 assessments for 7-6.
3 assessments plus club marks. 5 assessments if no reliance on club marks
Like I said, he needs to log onto his County FA and find out what the requirement is. I think the one above is wrong.

I understand that is national criteria. My County works on the 3 assessments path as it's hard enough with so few assessors aroundIs that just specific to your district or CFA then Brian? I've looked at Hants, Leicestershire, Somerset and the Army FA and none of them mention 5 assessments for 7-6, or club marks.

We are aiming for 5 assessments as our new RDO really doesn't like club marks!
Also, aiming to have all assessments completed by the end of Dec 2016!
Although I suspect there will be a lot of unhappy referees around if we have to use the stipulated terminology regarding the current 5 options of Performance Indicators......
