Refereeing is at the heart of every great game of football. Our referees don't just enforce the rules, they enable fair play, ensure player safety, and help facilitate the positive experiences that keep our Wellington football community thriving.

Whether you're looking to stay connected to the game, develop leadership skills, or simply give back to your local community, refereeing offers a unique perspective on football. You'll join a supportive community of officials who are essential to making football happen across Wellington every weekend.

Get started today with your Level 1 referee qualification through NZF Learn. For further support contact Connol@capitalfootball.org.nz

NZF LEARN

NZF Learn offers referees the opportunity to learn in their own time, whilst still holding onto the most important part of a course: the in-person engagement with peers, and educators and the quality conversations which take place at those times.

The four updated community courses below are now available. These courses consist of both online modules and an in-person practical component.

• The Game Day Leader Award
• The Mini Football/Futsal Refereeing Award
• The Youth and Community Football/Futsal Refereeing Award
• The Referee Level 1 Award
