Q: Why become a referee?<\/strong>
A: You love the game of lacrosse and you can earn money while participating. It is also a fun thing to do and you will be giving back to the game. Oh ya, you may even find it helps you become a better player!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: What do I have to do?<\/strong>
A: It\u2019s easy! Just fill out this online application<\/a> by no later than February 28th<\/strong>. The Head Referee and Executive will review your application and, if approved, you will need to take a referee clinic and information on dates will be sent to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: When are the clinics?<\/strong>
A: In the spring before the season starts. They are usually on a Saturday and last the whole day. All referees (new & returning) must take a clinic each year. The association will pay for the clinic as long as you referee a minimum of five (5) games during the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: What\u2019s the time commitment?
<\/strong>A. You must be available during the season on multiple nights or weekend days to commit to refereeing lacrosse and\/or working the shot clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: Lets talk money. How much can I make?<\/strong>
A: That depends on what level you officiate but beginner referees will make $20 per game refereeing Mini-Tyke and Tyke games as well as $15 per game if they do the shot clock at other levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
