Most referees have played themselves, some still do and some just think that’s their way of being part of the game. Either way being a referee keeps you involved even after your playing days might be over. It puts you right back into the action and gives you a part in the game that you’ll never get as a spectator.
The first stage in becoming a referee is to get in touch with our County Referee’s Administrator and the second stage is to complete the GAA Club Referee Foundation Course. This is a blended learning course, this comprises of an online GAA Learning course, and a one day in-person session delivered by GAA Referee Tutors. Learn more here:
Following the completion of this course and the successful completion of the rules test, the referee is qualified to referee at Club level.
