Referee Activity & Development Log

Every Referee should take personal responsibility for his/her own development.

Consequently:-

It is in the interests of all registered referees of all Grades that they maintain an up to date ‘Referee Activity/Development Log’, and it is strongly recommended. Used efficiently and thoughtfully, it can be a key element of a referee’s self evaluation, personal record and development.
There are obvious advantages in having an up to date log available at every match, so that it can then be discussed with a member of the Staff Team or a more senior referee if present.

NB At each match referees should have :-

Current Rule Book
A copy of the Referees’ Code of Conduct
The Referee Guidelines issued by the Referee Commission (currently being updated)
Key Performance Objectives for current and next grade

NOTE: When a referee on the National League Panel is being observed by a member of the Staff Team the above may form a part of the discussion.

Each referee is responsible for maintaining and developing their own Handbook
After each match every referee should note key match elements, from which something can be learned, and set future targets
Where a member of the Staff Team or a senior referee is present to Observe/Assess, the key elements and agreed targets should be recorded on the log during the de-brief.
When no member of the Staff Team or senior referee is present, the elements can be identified by personal evaluation or a mutual de-brief with the refereeing partner
In the case of a tournament a single log may be completed for the event, though it is advised any semi-finals/finals are logged separately.

The referee support pages are maintained by Ian Sidwell. Site was last updated on 26/08/2015 22:57:10
