Very informative and clear easy to follow.
Good course for an introduction into junior football and officiating at a semi pro level and the video interactive nature was easy to access, still dubious on that Ronaldo penalty though cost me 100% would’ve given it but that’s the game I suppose
Really enjoyable course with content that is relevant to the level I will referee at.
Very informative and clear explanations, great course

Very informative course – great introduction to refereeing
Well presented course. Easy to work through.
Fantastic course, certainly learned a few things.
Good course – found the recent rule changes extremely useful
Despite playing since I was 8 (now 34) there was 1 or 2 things I still didn’t know. Was a good insight to junior football and what is expected
Fantastic, easy to use well structured course content. Ideal for the junior coach taking up the whistle, has given me greater insight into all areas of the game, that will not only benefit me as a referee but will improve and enhance the experience for all those playing and watching. many thanks.
Good course, simple and easy to understand

Straight forward and very enjoyable course.
Very informative and helpful
Really enjoyed the course very goid clear explanations to the rules and variations
Very informative and enjoyable
Straight forward course to complete and the you’re the ref quiz element was very useful. However, I completely disagree and am surprised with the answer to the question about a player aggressively swearing at you (have a chat with them?). Junior football or no junior football, this is a basic ideal that should be understood by every coach, player and parent at every level. Refereeing is a great tool to educate and discuss why you have made a decision or help the kids understand a new rule, but a ‘chat’ in that scenario is not, and nor does it send the right message to other players. To some kids that sets a precedent that they all have 1 ”free chance’ to verbally abuse the ref. If a referee dealt with my player in a match I was coaching, I’d withdraw the player from the match straight away. I think the answer to question sends the wrong signal, especially when the previous question in regard to a spectator doing the same thing being given a zero tolerance approach.
Mark, I thought exactly the same as you. Swearing at a referee should be straight red. No second chance.
would recommend this course to all involved in junior football
Very Informative course
Brilliant Insight to little details. Missed by spectators and some players from a refs perspective. Enjoyed it!
Really great course, enjoyed the interactive videos & the Quiz, though only got 73.3%.

Excellent course well worth the money
Good informative course, few debatable answer to some question in the quiz
Thanks Darran. I guess that shows the difficult position that referees often find themselves in!
A VERY INFORMATIVE COURSE, UPDATE ON RULE CHANGES WAS VERY GOOD, AND HOW TO HANDLE DIFFICULT PARENTS, WHO CAN SOMETIMES SPOIL SPORT FOR THE CHILDREN.

Great course, easy to follow, having played for the last 20 years game me a different perspective. Even picked up on a few things I was unaware of.
Thanks Darren – glad you enjoyed. All the best with your refereeing journey.
Good course. Not sure I agree with all the answers on the end quiz. Most were very clear decisions but a few were debatable.
Thanks Marcus. I guess that shows the difficult position that referees often find themselves in!
I really enjoyed the course and like many before me learnt some rules that I wasn’t aware of. Also liked the fact that I could dip in & out of it when I liked.
a very user friendly and informative courses. I found this a great way of learning, doing it in my own time and having the ability to leave and then come back to the course. Some great advice on Junior football and I especially enjoyed the video of the magic Kit. Very powerful
