Quite a good idea really if there are kids who want to be a referee.

I used to ref lunch time games at school when I was 12. My mum made me yellow and red cards out of coloured paper.

Most kids probably want to be footballers because they love the game. Unfortunately, not all kids are very good at it so refereeing is a route into the it when they are older.

I think it sends out positive signals tbh Benters.

Which possibly breads a decent sized amount of people who didn’t make it as players, become refs and deep inside hate the game…not all but enough

I coach an u10s team and at that level it's teenagers reffing and I have to say some of them are brilliant and it's fantastic for their confidence and all sorts of skills. Some of them play football and ref on the side. Some i think no longer play as perhaps weren't so good at playing but have found they are good at reffing.

So yes some of them do want to be refs because they love football and and it another way of connecting with it.

I think I'd be quite happy for my lad to ref in the side in a few years (but I'd be on the side) because except in circumstances of an awful human being parent) there are some good skills to be had from it.

My mates boy used to ref games on weekend mornings. Decent money for a 14-15 year old, think be got paid something like £40 a game. Much more than I got paid for my paper round!

Think it's better for kids to play the game first and understand it that way first before they take up refereeing. Rather than give them the textbook first, so to speak. Just find it a bit odd you'd want to be a referee as a kid, unless you've been bullied into by an overbearing parent. Another "great" idea... for the sake of it. Let kids be kids.

Some refs are failed BT adverts from the 1980s...

You're getting it entirely back to front. I'd say you have to absolutely love the game to put yourself out there knowing full well you're likely to be abused for the crime of making a decision on a football pitch that some people think is incorrect.

There is not a single young ref I've seen who hates football ffs. The absolute opposite.
