Some of the topics covered are signals and communication, fouls and misconduct and positioning and movement. 

 

Block 3 – Reflection, Final Test and Next Steps (two hours) 

You will be required to attend a ‘call-back’ session after your refereeing experience, where you will have an opportunity to share experiences on the games you have officiated, including what has worked well and what you might do differently in the future. At this session you will receive information on the next steps and the opportunities that will be available to you (further training, etc). Please note - for regional courses this block can be delivered online.
