RECERTIFYING REFEREES

Recertification Courses are held in all four districts during November and December each year. Pre-registering for a course through this website is required for anyone desiring to recertify in Kentucky.
Grade 8 (black patch) and 9 (blue patch) referees are required to recertify their license for each calendar year. If the initial license is obtained at a course after August 1st, it is current for the remainder of that year plus the entire next year. Otherwise licenses are only valid for the current calendar year (January 1 - December 31). Recertification involves attending a one day five hour course, passing an exam (retests are free), and costs $60.00. You can recertify anywhere in our state that you desire. If you choose to recertify outside of Kentucky, you will need to send proof of your results to the State Referee Administrator - Brian Darling of Louisville. While this is not our preferred method, it is allowed.

License has Lapsed for 1-2 Years - Grade 8 referees who miss 1-2 consecutive years of registration can be re-registered as a grade 8 after completing a Referee Re-certification clinic. Grade 9 Referees who miss 1-2 years of registration may be recertified after fulfilling all recertification requirements for that grade. A Grade 9 Referee who misses two years of registration can be eligible to take the Bridge Course (9-8) after he or she has met the requirements to be re-certified as Grade 9.

License has Lapsed for 3-4 Years - Grade 8 referees who miss 3-4 consecutive years of registration can be re-registered after taking the Referee Bridge (Grade 9 to Grade 8) Course or the entire Entry Level Referee Training Course. Grade 7 Referees and Higher - Referees can only be registered at the grade they qualify for. Referees who were Grade 7 or higher should be downgraded one (1) grade, as per current policy. Once they retake the appropriate course as listed above for grade 8 referees and have completed all the requirements for the previously held grade, they may be upgraded.

License has Lapsed for 5 or more Years - Grade 8 referees who miss 5 or more consecutive years must re-take the entire Entry Level Referee Training Course.
