The best seat in the house

​​​​​​​New Zealand Football aims to support and develop our community and advanced referees at all levels of the game.​​​​​​​

Refereeing is a great way to give back while you play, or continue your enjoyment of the game after. It allows you to stay fit, utilise and develop your people skills, and pursue a challenging path that provides opportunities from grassroots to the international stage.

BECOME A REFEREE WITH NZF LEARN

NZF Learn is our online e-learning platform for everyone involved in football who wants to further develop their knowledge, skills, and positive impact on the game.

NZF Learn is our new online learning platform that will be the home of NZF Referee Education in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Referees will be able to access a range of courses online with four updated community refereeing courses available now. Courses have online modules that you can complete from the comfort of your own home, which prepare you for the practical modules that follow. Learn the key concepts online before bringing the learning to life on the field or court.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
