All affiliated Eastern New York leagues require that all referees be certified by the United States Soccer
Federation (USSF).
HVSRA offers USSF Grade 8 Referee and Grade 9 Recreational Referee courses in the Mid Hudson area.
To find the course dates and locations, please refer to the
Course Schedule.
The Grade 8 course consists of six (6) 3-hour sessions, for a total of eighteen (18) hours of instruction. Attendance at all sessions is required for successful completion of the course. Upon successful completion of the course, candidates will be registered as Grade 8 Referees with the United States Soccer Federation.
The Grade 9 Recreational Referee may officiate games as either a Referee or Assistant Referee on recreational
youth games for under-14 and younger only. They may not officiate older ages, travel youth matches, or
adult matches. For the latter matches, you must be at least a Grade 8 Referee. The Grade 9 course consists
of a one-day, eight-hour class. Upon successful completion of the course, candidates will be registered as
Grade 9 Recreational Referees with the United States Soccer Federation.
