CLINICSClinics are offered by the NH Soccer Referee Instructional Program.Participants in all NHSA referee clinics must be 12 years of age at the time of the clinic.
GRADE 8: This course is a 16-hour intensive training in the Laws of the Game. Graduates who also pass the 100 question exam are eligible to work recreational or travel games as referees or assistant referee up to the U-19 level. The State Referee Committee strongly recommends that, whenever possible, referees with less than one year experience not be assigned as the center referee. Of course, no assignments are made to higher level games until new referees are willing and able to work at that level.
GRADE 9: This course is an 8-hour review of the Laws of the Game, intended for people who only want to work recreational games, or who want to enter refereeing at a lower level of intensity. Graduates who also pass the 50 question exam are eligible to work recreational games as the referee or assistant referee up to U-14 level. Grade 9 referees are also eligible to work travel games as an assistant referee only up to U-14.
