Referee

Payment Information

In our Club, refereeing used to be a volunteer job – but not anymore!  All our referees are paid.

How much money you make depends on a few imporant factors:
– the age group for the game you ref (older = more money)
– the type of referee assignment: center or sideline (center = more money)

We don’t post the current rates because they change over time.  If you want to know what the current pay is, please send an email to refereetrainingcoordinator@ovalesoccer.org.

Payment (and your availability) are all managed through https://stackofficials.com/.  In order to get paid, you’ll need to have a free account there.

You won’t receive a 1099 federal tax form unless you referee enough to earn more than the federal limit of $600 in a single year.

The more available you are, the more likely you are to get assigned multiple game.  For example, if you can only work from 10-noon, you’ll be lucky to get one game.  If you are available from 8-3, then there’s a decent chance you could be assigned to more than one game.  In most cases, when you are assigned multiple games, they will all be at the same location.
