Become a referee

Do you know the rules of bocce back to front? Are you the one everyone else counts on to keep track of the game?

If so, you’re already a natural bocce referee!

If you’re interested in learning how to officiate bocce games, these are the two training courses you will need to complete:

  1. The Community Officiating General Principles course
  2. The Bocce Specific Refereeing Course

 

The Community Officiating General Principles course

This course contains three modules, each of which you’ll be assessed in.

It will take you approximately four hours to complete online.

The course covers a range of general officiating topics, including:

  • The ethical responsibilities of officials
  • Preparation for officiating
  • Safety
  • Communication
  • Dealing with conflict
  • People management

Once registered, you’ll have six months to complete the course.
