To re-register as a Referee, you must have registered as a referee in either of the previous two seasons, or completed The FA Referees Course in the previous season.
If you were a referee but have not re-registered in the previous two seasons, you will need to contact your parent County FA so they can advise you how to re-register. Find your County FA contact HERE.
