PSC Seeking Soccer Referees
Prospector Soccer is seeking soccer referees for the 2022 fall season. Refereeing is a fun, independent, athletic and rewarding occupation and can be an ideal first-time job for many young adults.
PROCESS TO BECOME A REFEREE:
If you or your child is 13 years or older and interested in becoming an PSC referee, please contact Referee Coordinator Ethan Banaszak at: ethan.banaszak@prospector.org
For requirements and how to register with the US Soccer Learning Center visit: https://www.cnra.net/new-referee/
For referee apparel and kits, there are two recommended options:
- Official Sports - Recommend for more official kits, required if you plan to eventually work high level games.
- Amazon - Recommended for a lower cost option, great for entry level referees.
We recommend having at least 2 color options for jerseys. Yellow is typically the first option, but having a green alternative can be helpful. Please order as soon as possible so you have your equipment prior to the start of the fall season.
