I did this before when a student. It's a great way to get involved in the game and make a bit of cash on the side.
You come across some arseholes but in general most players and managers are pretty respectful.

You will be assigned to a league in a region. You should also be assigned to a mentor who will watch your first few games.
Can we send some of the current LOI officials on this course?
can we send the players on this course? maybe then we wont have so many yellows for back chat
I refereed for 18 months and was told I'd see an assessor or mentor regularly, never happened in the 18 months I did the job.Quote:
