There are a whole host of reasons why you might take up the whistle: to remain active in the sport following injury or retirement, to make new and lasting friends within the game, or to gain a sense of achievement by providing an invaluable service to players, coaches and spectators alike.
Whatever the reason, refereeing is challenging, rewarding and above all, can be great fun.

•Refereeing the key phases of the game
