The USSF First Time Referee Certification Course is a hybrid course that registers a referee with US Soccer, and qualifies that referee to work sanctioned recreational and competitive games under the USSF program. This includes the CVSC recreational program, Eastern Iowa Youth Soccer League, and Club Development League matches (and many others).

To register for the course, go to the Learning Center:
