Referee Jobs in Saint Louis, MO

A Referee plays a critical role in the fitness and recreation industry by enforcing the rules and regulations of various sports and games. They are responsible for ensuring fair play, resolving disputes, and maintaining the safety and orderliness of players. Referees monitor game play, assess penalties, judge performances, and make crucial decisions that can impact the outcome of a game. They also communicate with coaches, athletes, and other officials, and provide a detailed report of any misconduct or irregularity during the game. Referees often work on a part-time basis and are typically employed by schools, colleges, professional sports teams, and recreational leagues.

To become a Referee, one must have excellent knowledge of the sport they are officiating, be physically fit, have strong decision-making abilities, and possess good communication skills. They should hold a high school diploma or equivalent and complete a training course specific to the sport they are adjudicating. Certification is often required, such as from the National Association of Sports Officials (NASO) or other recognized bodies. Prior to becoming a Referee, individuals may have held roles such as a Sports Coach, Physical Education Teacher, or Sports Official at lower levels, to gain relevant experience and practical knowledge of the sport.
