The Washington State Referee Committee (SRC) is offering an alternative recertification process for those who have not / cannot attend one of the locally offer Recertification Clinics. This clinic is exclusively offered for LATE recertification from January 01 until June 15 and allows you to recertify without having attended a Recertification Classroom / Field session. The LATE ONLINE clinic contains additional training modules from what is seen by those attending a recert clinic and its attached online modules. This is a totally ONLINE Recertification clinic for Grade 8, 7 and Emeritus Referees. Once the clinic has been paid for, an ONLINE LESSONS button will appear next to the clinic on your home page. Click that button to take the lessons and view lesson status. Clinic# Referee - Online Late Recert 7 & 8 & Emeritus (OO) 08-0615-RL78E-0267 You must successfully complete all lessons to complete this clinic. The clinic has an added administrative cost of $15 in addition to normal registration costs (recertification fee and late if appropriate – referee grades 7+ @ 10%) PLEASE NOTE: Once Paid / Registered for this clinic, your registration 2015 referee fee and this clinic fee cannot be refunded. The SRC does not have staff available to administer such requests for refunds. The SRC remains committed to wanting all recertifying referees to attend local recertification and do the associated online modules. Going forward, for 2016, this option WILL NOT be available from July 01 through December 31. Additionally, there is no implied promise that this LATE ONLINE will ever be offered again.

As of January 1st 2015 the distinction between single league and unlimited play WSASA player cards has been removed.
This means any unexpired WSASA card is valid for play in ANY league or other sanctioned WSASA match. Cards that are
currently marked as single league shall now be recognized as “Unlimited”.
Moving forward single league cards will no longer be issued Once all of the currently valid single league cards are renewed, the confusion should disappear. Until that point, as long as a card is currently unexpired for league play (unlimited or single) it shall be valid for any and all league play. Thank you for your cooperation during this transition.

Referee Grade 7+ |
| The Washington State Referee Committee has approved a new Referee Grade designation - Referee Grade 7+ |
| So exactly what is a Referee Grade 7+? |
|
| Understand - this is not an official US Soccer referee grade. It is an indicator to WASRC Technical Directors and many assignors of a referee who has put in the extra effort to stand above their peers. Effective immediately, those referees who have qualified as 7+ based on the requirement above will be shown as such on the WAReferees website. This designation will also be seen by those assignors who are using assigning software configured to recognize this designation. |
| So, why bother with achieving Referee Grade 7+? Right now, there is no requirement to achieve this designation for any assignments / consideration but that is likely to change very soon. You can be sure that Referees in Grades National, National Candidate, State and 7+ will be considered in most cases ahead of any Referees Grades 8 and 7. Considered, if not required, for SRC sponsored out of State events, Youth and High School championship events, etc. |
| Please check out the SRC Portfolio Guidelines which has more on the "selection" topic. |

The US Soccer Referee Program has recently released new Certification, Re-Certification and Upgrade requirements for all Referee Grades. After much study, communications with the US Soccer Referee Program office and other State Referee Committees, the Washington State Referee Committee has adopted the new requirements effective immediately for the 2014 Registration Year. These new requirements, and any variations from the Referee Program requirements, are detailed under the Administration option of the Main Menu above. Click Certification Requirements (updated 02-09-2015) for a direct link to the page. This video, Referee Grade Overview, focuses on explaining the different referee grades that U.S. Soccer's program has to offer and the pathway a referee may take to advance to working more competitive games. In addition, the SRC will often review a referee's "Portfolio" when making decision on who is offered SRC sponsored training & events, assignments and travel. See this document for more information: SRC Portfolio Guidelines |
