Enquiries are welcome from officials regardless of which County they reside or officiate in. Experience of assessing is essential and experience of operating in a Supply League in the past as an official is desirable but not compulsory. Any National List or Contributory League Assessors who could help out would be most welcome. Enquiries should be directed to the Referees Development Officer Dean Mohareb.
