Lander Thunder Rec Soccer would like to invite interested adults and teens, age 13 years and older, to participate in an upcoming referee training clinic prior to the start of spring soccer season!

A Grassroots Referee Course  will be held at Central Wyoming College in Riverton on March 11, 2023 from 8:30 a.m. - 2:00p.m.  Lunch is provided.

Please note that a 4.5 hour online training companion course must be completed prior to the in-person training on March 11.

The course completion fee is $75. Lander Thunder will reimburse the course completion fee for all referees who sign up to referee games.

  For attendees 13 - 17 years old, this is the full cost of the course.  For those 18 and up, there's an additional $30 for a background screening.  

  Please retain a copy of your course registration fee to submit for reimbursement.

Once you have completed both parts of the course, you will be officially licensed and registered with U.S. Soccer and able to referee youth recreational and competitive soccer.  Referees can earn money by officiating for Lander Thunder recreational matches, Lander Strikers competitive tournaments, or any other youth match. There will be many upcoming local referee opportunities in the spring and fall for Lander Thunder (typically weeknights) and Lander Strikers (typically weekends).

Lander Thunder games are an excellent opportunity for new refs to gain experience in a fun and supportive environment!
