Tag League Referees
Tag League employs accredited senior referees to officiate at games. We see this as an important investment in our competition, as using good referees results in;
Better Competition. Consistent calls see’s the team who plays to the rules being the winner.
Better Teams. Teams are effectively being coached as they play as the referee advises players on the calls.
Happy Players. Consistent calls means there are less disputes or reason for dissatisfaction by players.
As our competition grows, we are looking for more referees to officiate either Mixed or Mens Competitions. We place referees in different roles depending on their skills and experience to suit the level of competition. Ideally this would be persons who live in the local area and are looking to get involved in their local community.
The Tag League Association provides free referee accreditation courses for people interested in becoming a referee. This would ideally suit persons who have an interest in the sport and are looking for additional part time income. We find that people with an interest in or coming from a Rugby League background easily transition to Tag League given the similarities in the game.
This is a well paid role with a good support structure for those involved.
Referee training courses are conducted on a seasonal basis by the Tag League Association.
If you are interested in becoming accredited or have qualifications and are looking for work as a referee in the Castle Hill area, please call us in the office on 0406 914 124, or you can email us at: Referees@TagLeague.com.au
