If you have a 2010 patch you are all set for this Fall

You will be required to pass a recertification clinic and receive a 2011 Patch in order to referee in the Spring 2011!!

To register for a clinic, click on this link: http://www.vadcsoccerref.com/

Then click on the left side of the page "Online Registration"
You must first register with the state and pay $65 on line with a credit card. Print your receipt. Once you complete this step, there is a one day approval process before you can register for a class.
Once you receive the approval email, you will then browse and choose a Grade 8 recertification clinic. Once again print your receipt. and in most cases there is no additional charge for the class.

Register ASAP - Last year the classes filled up quick and many referees had to go to other classes further away.

*** If this is your first recertification class, please note that there is an individual written test that you must pass to receive your new 2009 patch. Every year many individuals have failed the test and had to re-take an entire clinic and re-take and pass the test. It is very important that you review your rule book before the class and pay particular attention to "Restarts".

If your are a GRADE 9 Referee, you also have to take this recertification Clinic to receive a 2009 patch. However, I would highly recommend that you take the Grade 8 New referee clinic instead. Grade 9 referee are not covered by insurance for all age groups. (Grade 9 can only do Recreational Centers up to U-12 & No Travel Centers at all; and the highest AR you can do for travel or Recreation is U-14.)
