Referee Jobs in Fairfax, VA

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.

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.
