Referee Jobs, who are United Kingdom Minifootball’s referee recruitment partners, have announced a massive autumn induction program aimed at attracting new referees to the game.
Referee Jobs are affiliated to UKMA and work closely in helping them recruiting and training referees throughout the UK and, according to their spokesman Stuart Dawson, they are planning a huge expansion in the latter part of 2012. “Minifootball is getting bigger all the time in the UK, “ said Stuart. “We are seeing leagues springing up all over the place and there is no doubt that with the added profile of the sport following the miniEURO2012 that will become ever more the case.
“What we are lacking, perhaps, is the right level of quality officials to go along with that level of player, and that is why we are planning to induct and train a lot more high standard referees.”
UKMA’s Officials coordinator Oliver Matthews said that he appreciated the job that Referee Jobs were doing and added: “We have already seen just how many quality officials we have in this country, as Stuart Winton and Richard Butler were given the honour of the final of miniEURO but anything we can do to build on that has to be great news.”
