REFEREES


Referees hold a pivotal role within our sport. The Referee pathway has both Theory and practical parts. Referees can work towards a Level 6 being the highest level of Referee.
Referees can officiate at Affiliates, Regional, State, National and International events once qualified.

Touch Football Australia (TFA) has partnered with etrainu (ETU) to deliver a Learning Management System (LMS) which we have officially branded as ‘The Nest’.
For the first time as a sport, The Nest will give TFA the ability to talk to our accredited volunteers and target ongoing education opportunities to our membership. This system will let us streamline administrative processes for our course Facilitators and Referee Coaches across the country, allowing us greater reach than ever before. TFA intends for The Nest to be a hub where all members of our sport go to develop their knowledge of the game. This platform will also provide a whole-of-sport education profile.
To access The Nest please follow the link below and create your profile;

Picture
Touch Football Australia places a significant focus on ensuring the sport is free of abuse and harassment for all participants, particularly for referees given the difficult role they sometimes face.
A number of frameworks have been implemented to ensure this for all referees, including a ‘zero tolerance’ approach to abuse and harassment of officials endorsed by the TFA Board of Management. These frameworks are aligned to the Sport’s Responsibility Code and Member Protection Policy, leading to the creation of the ADD TFA Disciplinary Regulations Manual LINK, as well as an advertisement, highlighting the importance of respect for Touch Football Referees.
