my son wants to do your on line course to recertify as a referee. he was certified this year in CT, and misunderstood the closing date for the on line certification. is your on line course still open, and what option do we need to select to do the basic modules.
Ronnie,
Unfortunetly RI doesn’t offer recerts on line, in order to recert in RI from another state you have to attend one of our recert classes held in RI. Please check the listing on our website, risrc.net and tab to instruction and then referee clinics. I already have 1 girl from CT coming to our Jan 19th class in Warwick RI. email me directly at [email protected] to be more specific.
My son is attending the 1/19 recertification class. Last year they had to take a test online prior to attending. Do you have a link for the online test or are the tests being given at the clinic 1/19?
The test will be given at the clinic
i have a refeere who could not get recertified but is a great referee. is there anything he can do to get recertified.
They can complete the inservice training requirement by attending our monthly seminar and taking the test there
My daughter wants to attend the recert clinic at CCRI on SAt 1/7. What is the cost? Can she bring the $$$ to the clinic? How do we register?
Thank you
The cost for recertification is $45. Pre-registration and the recertification exam is online.
i wanted to sign up for a certification course and as I have never been a referee before. I’m only 13 and I’m not sure if I’d be allowed to take the 8th grade class or if I should start with 9th grade. I already know a lot about the rules of soccer because I play, my friends referee and I help my dad coach U8. So which class should I take????
sorry i think i typed my email wrong in my last message. i just wanted to add that even though i’m only 13 i started school early and i’m in 8th grade. i’m also one of the smartest in my grade if that matters. either class would suit me good i just don’t know which one to sig up for.
At this point, there are only grade 8 classes on the schedule. You can take the online portion of the course in advance if you’d like to try out the grade 8 course: http://www.ussoccer.com/referees/resource-center/referee-resources/grade-8-referee-course.aspx
