The chance to referee with some of the most recognisable officials in the world, like Mark Clattenburg and Peter Walton – and the chance to test yourself in the 6 a side World Cup – are just two of the things on offer to new officials who sign up to the Eastbourne community league.

 

Our competitions at Withdean Sports Complex on Thursday will kick off on 23^rd May and are offering local people opportunities if they sign up to their referee’s induction nights.

 

Leisure Leagues have also taken the lead on cutting down on dissent, with all players required to stay two metres from referees.

 

Leisure Leagues competitions are all cashless – meaning referees do not have the hassle of collecting match fees and can get on with simple refereeing.

 

All equipment is provided and you do not have to have refereed before, many of our officials are coaches, or football enthusiasts who want to help their local area.

 

Our match officials are right at the centre of all we do, and we love to see everyone reaching the top and going from the local 3G to the 6 a side World Cup.
