I qualified as a referee in 2017; this was mainly to support my son’s team. For the first year I mainly did youth until I got used to the laws of the game as they had changed so much since I played. I then moved onto all age groups and found I really enjoyed it, I have no delusions of becoming a high grade due to my age, but I do put maximum effort and skill to the level I am at. You can see how much I enjoy giving back to the game as on average I do 40 games a year.
