ONCE ON THE OMS SYSTEM - 

​

  1. Please check your address, email, and cell phone information and make any corrections.

  2. If you need the safe sport class, it will show up on your list of online lessons (on your OMS page) that you will need to complete.

  3. Anyone who is turning 18 in 2025 or is older than 18 years, must do the Safe Sport training.  Anyone 14 to 17 years old does not need to do this training.

  4. If you have a SafeSport certificate from another organization that is current, please let me know. I will need a copy of the certificate. The training is the same, but we am not sure that you would be on the USSF list.

  5. ATTEND THE WHOLE TWO HOUR RE CERT ZOOM CLINIC.  The ZOOM link will be sent to you for the zoom clinic you chose plus remember you still need to complete all the online requirements in order to be a registered US Soccer referee.                              

                                

    Once you complete the ONLINE requirements and attend the entire ZOOM clinic, we will register you for 2026 and we will mail you your patch and Velcro.  Please complete the requirements before taking the clinic. Those that have not completed the requirements will not be re certified until we have all the information as outlined above.
