REGISTRATION PROCEDURE

To be certified as a USSF and Metro DC-Virginia State Referee Program referee you must complete all of the following five steps:

1.       Register as a referee at USSF https://www.ussoccer.info/Login.aspx
a.      Returning referees use the login and ID that is printed on the form to which your referee registration card was attached.  Be sure to enter the letter "R" in front of the 16-digit ID number.
b.      New referees select “New user? SIGN UP”
c.       Follow the directions on the website.
d.      PRINT CONFIRMATION PAGE AND BRING THE PRINTED PAGE TO CLASS.
 
NOTE: If you have lost you login ID or password use the “forgot password?” at https://www.ussoccer.info/Login.aspx
 
2.       Pay the Registration Fee, which for Referee Grade 8, 9 or 12 is $65.00. (This fee includes the registration fee and a clinic fee.)  You must pay by credit card while registering at US Soccer. If you cannot pay by credit card, please contact the instructor of the class that you wish to attend. 
NOTE: Before the next step you must wait 24 hours while the databases are updated.
3.       Sign up for class at the MDCVSRP website. https://www.youthleaguesusa.com/mdcva/2009/Profile.html      
a.      Returning referees are to log in with the same User ID and password used in Step #1.  If you find that this User ID/PW will not provide access to your profile ("No Match Found"), please contact the State Office for assistance.  For some returning referees, the User ID that comes down in the data download file is not the USSF ID, rather, it is something that the US Soccer system has automatically created.  The State Office can confirm the User ID and PW for you.
b.      New referees use the login assigned to you at the USSF site.
c.      Open your profile and proceed with selecting and enrolling in a class.
d.      PRINT OUT CLASS CONFIRMATION PAGE AND BRING THE PRINTED PAGE TO CLASS.
 
4.       Attend the entire class you enrolled in at Step #3. 
 
5.       Take and pass the appropriate referee test as part of the referee class.
NOTE: Referee Grades 7 through 1 have additional steps to complete their registration process. They still need to submit a completed "Senior Referee Certification Checklist" to the State Office when all requirements for grade maintenance or upgrade have been met."

NOTICE ABOUT WEEKEND REGISTRATION  
Note: Referees will be able to register with US Soccer during the weekend at https://www.ussoccer.info/Login.aspx.  However, you will NOT  be able to sign up for a class at https://www.youthleaguesusa.com/mdcva/2009/Profile.htm until Monday evening.
