Assessors are the coaches of referees. By improving the development of our assessors we can improve the quality of our referees.
Referee assessors play a crucial role in the development of referees. The broad aims of the assessors’ programs are to enable participants to:
- develop an awareness of the role of the referee assessor;
- recognise the need for career long development of referees; and
- provide assesors with the basic tools, practices and policies they need to carry out their roles effectively.
The assessor programs prepare assessors to work initially at a development level through to full assessment and coaching techniques for elite match officials.
There are three assessor qualifications in the assessor training program:
- Level 3 Assessor
- Level 2 Assessor
- Level 1 Assessor
Referee Assessor Level 3
The Level 3 Assessor course is the entry level course for referees who are interested in mentoring and coaching referees at a grassroots level.
