Updates will start again around August 16. Untill then we’ll check upon our email regularly, so if you have any questions, remarks, ideas or something you want to share (preparationgames you need refs for?) hit us at info@officiatingscool.nl

Some of you might have seen it already, but then again: Lots of you won’t. Let’s keep it civilised in the comments please! Lees verder “What to do???”

Wanted: Preseason Refs
