This page is used to identify training opportunities for players, coaches, and referees. As new items are added they will be placed at the top of the page.
As we try to increase the caliber of our players, we strive to provide them with opportunities to learn from coaches and trainers from across the state and country. These are great places to meet others who love soccer and enjoy sharing their experience with others so that their skill level increases.

Each District will host recertification clinics for the Grade 8 and 9 referees. Bridge courses for Grade 9 referees who wish to upgrade to Grade 8 will be held as well. A schedule of those will be announced on the Mississippi Soccer Association e-Referee web site.
If you are currently certified for 2010, you should be receiving a letter from USSF, which has your registration information on it. Bring that letter to the recertification clinic you choose to attend this year.
If you have any questions regarding referee certification or training, please contact Referees@Mississippisoccer.orgor call 601 982 5198.
