In line with celebrating Female Football Week, Football NSW hosted a special Female Football Week training session for 40 female referees on Tuesday evening at Valentine Sports Park.

It was an amazing evening as female referees from various associations as well as competitions came together in promoting the progression and development of women officiating in the sport.

“It was great to see 40 female referees attend the Female Football Week training session at Valentine Sports Park on Tuesday evening,” said Football NSW’s Interim Referees Manager Rob Nieuwenhuis.

“The experience levels ranged from brand new referees right through to A-League Women’s and FIFA Match Officials who happily shared their experiences in the game.

“This was a first of many sessions for female referees in the lead up to the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.”
