| Cronulla-Sutherland District Rugby Football League Referees' Association Incorporated was formed in 1963 and officiates in games ranging from Under 6's to A Grade in the Sutherland Shire District, Sydney NSW, Australia. We are affiliated with the New South Wales Rugby Football League Referees' Association. There are 16 clubs and 291 teams playing within the Shire in three Divisions; Mini League for 6 to 8 year olds, Modified League for 9 to 12 year olds and International Rules for 13 year olds to A grade. We also had teams from St George District combine with Cronulla Shire teams in senior grades in 2008. Click here to see a map of the area we cover.

Our members are committed to providing a high standard of refereeing as well as ensuring the safety of all players. Referees in all sports are an integral part of ensuring that players play the game in the true spirit by following the rules as set down by each game's ruling body. Without a referee or umpire, chaos would rule. A good referee has an excellent understanding of the rules of the game, a firm and decisive manner and the respect of players and spectators alike. We welcome and actively recruit new members. We welcome anyone, male or female, who wants to make the commitment required to become a regular member of our team. Initial training involves a program spread over 4 - 6 weeks with the main emphasis on the rules. The course is generally run on a Thursday night from 6:30 to 9:30pm and each trainee is required to complete an examination prior to obtaining their Preliminary Referees ticket. Once you have completed this part of your training, you are eligible to referee your first game and to continue on to Level 1 status. If you are interested in joining click here to complete our online application form. Please note that any applications received after June 1st 2008 will not be processed until the end of this season. As well as providing excellent training and coaching for prospective Referees, new members can expect strong support and guidance from Senior Referees. Some of our members have progressed through the ranks to refereeing NRL First Grade fixtures like Jared Maxwell who refereed nearly every round in 2007 & 2008. We also have three members who are in the Junior Representative Referees Squad; Adam Cassidy, James Gill and Faye Breslin. If you were to ask 10 referees why they decided to become a referee, you would probably get 10 completely different answers. The majority however would agree that it was the 'F' factor that got them involved; FUN, FITNESS, FRIENDS and FUTURE. |
