uploading Referee Appointment
Phil Rush
I understand that Downloads are to improved, have you looked at 'Assign Officials' as an upload?
I have raised this for several seasons
I am assigning 370 Referees to games every week. I fully accept that I can assign a date one at a time, but it takes 20mins per cup and a day takes me 3hours for the league
The FA is losing Referee feedback
I have raised this 3 years ago, but it has been closed and the enhancement has not been updated
We are currently looking at the referee functionality as a whole, working with the Referees Department etc so this will all be looked at as part of that piece of work.
I now 390 fixtures every week, a spreadsheet upload is now essential.
I manually uploaded Cups for my league and took 6 days.
any chance that it will be coming?
I think a system around referees needs an overall as a whole.
It would be good for full-time to be slightly more automated when it comes to referees based on
Availability
Age
Distance to games
Last club refereed
This section could be soo much better than it currently is.
Some of our referees are in 4 or 5 different leagues and each league has a different system, spreadsheet and a way of appointing. I cans see why it is frustrating for referees and appointment officers alike.
