DEVELOPMENT GROUP EVENING TO TAKE PLACE AT ACKLAM GREEN CENTRE IN DECEMBER

The second North Riding FA Female Referee Development Group evening of the season will be held at Acklam Green Centre in Middlesbrough on Thursday 5 December 2019.

Taking place between 6.30pm and 9pm, the session will include a review of The FA Women’s Refereeing Pathway, an open forum on refereeing experiences and WSL and UEFA match incidents.

Plus, we’re delighted to announce that FIFA Women’s Referee and Female Referee Ambassador for North Riding FA, Rebecca Welch, will once again be in attendance to present alongside North Riding FA’s Referee Development Manager, Ross Joyce.

Ross said: “I’m delighted that we will be hosting our second Female Referee Development Group meeting of the season. Over the past few months we have made great developments within our recruitment of female officials and we hope to see over the coming months further females joining us. Our first-ever Female Only Referee Course was a great success with 10 new trainee referees coming on board and currently undertaking their five trainee games.  

“As a County FA we are fully behind the recruitment, retention and development of female refereeing here in North Riding, and we are really excited to have Rebecca on board helping us to promote and develop this side of our strategy.  I do hope that you will attend the latest Development Group meeting on Thursday 5 December for what will be a fantastic evening with Rebecca in attendance once again.   

“As the season develops, we will be announcing further female refereeing opportunities and promotions and we hope you will help support.”
