PAYSA is always looking for new and returning refs to get certified for Pine Tree League games in the spring, and Rec and Travel games in late summer and fall. To referee games you must be certified so please see the information below from the Maine’s Director of Referee Instruction on how to begin the process. This is also a great way to make some extra money and give back to the community!
NEW REFEREES
For those looking to be certified please go HERE and follow the step by step instructions located half way down the page.
RETURNING REFEREES AND RECERTIFICATIONS
