 | New Referee Clinics:
Become a Soccer Referee
Referees make between $35.00 to $83.50 as a Referee and $23.00 to $55.50 as an Assistant Referee. Kids have been able to easily make between $3,500 - $7,500 a year.
Refereeing is a great way for kids and adults to make money and there are games available to officiate year around. Referees select the matches they can officiate from website scheduling systems and set their own work schedule. By becoming a referee now, referees will be able to officiate summer tournaments and be ready for the fall league.
How to become a Soccer Referee
To become a referee, you first complete 3-5 hours of on-line training and attend an 4 hour in-person clinic. The following New Referee Clinics have been scheduled for individuals to become Referees. The cost of the clinic and registration is $73.00.
Sat 1/17/2026 12:00PM - 4:00PM in Bothell
