Welcome to the referee page for the referees at AYSO Region 47 in Riverside CA. We pride ourselves on having a top notch referee program. All of our referees are volunteers that give up their valuable weekends to keep the game Safe, Fair and Fun for the youth of Riverside and it’s surrounding communities. We are always looking for new volunteers. We offer an excellent free training program and a mentor program that will pair you with an experienced referee for your first few matches until you are comfortable. The referees in our program vary from several decades of experience to brand new referees starting their first matches. We are constantly understaffed and NEED YOU TO VOLUNTEER. One thing is certain, our referees have the best view of the game.
