High Wycombe and District Referees’ Society are very excited to be celebrating our 100th year as an affiliated Referees’ Association branch. Our society was founded in 1887 and has been affiliated with the national RA since the 1923-24 season. 

High Wycombe and District Referees Society is dedicated to supporting and developing referees at all levels within the local community. As a member, you'll benefit from regular training sessions, mentorship programs, and networking opportunities with experienced referees. The society provides a supportive environment to enhance your skills, whether you're a seasoned referee or just starting out. Joining the society not only improves your officiating abilities but also connects you with a passionate group of individuals who share your love for the game. With access to the latest resources and ongoing professional development, you'll be well-equipped to handle matches confidently and competently. Become a part of the High Wycombe and District Referees Society today and take your refereeing to the next level!

Our members encompass a variety of levels and experiences, while we always welcome new members to provide support and guidance, regardless of stage in your career! In more recent times we have seen our membership list continue to grow and we are regularly visited by guest speakers from inside of the professional game as well as local level officials and trainers. We have really enjoyed a recent influx of new youth members who have contributed to a brilliant atmosphere at our monthly meetings.

We pride ourselves on providing the very best support, training, welfare and development for all of our referees. As part of this, we provide pre-season appointments to clubs and referees in our area as a major development opportunity. We pride ourselves on our less experienced members having the opportunity to go out and officiate and learn from those senior referees.

Why not come and join us at one of our monthly meetings, and register! For more information, please do not hesitate to contact us at hwdrs_secretary@outlook.com

The National RA recommends that prospective members should join through their local LRA, the easiest way being to attend one of the many local association meetings that take place across the country on a regular (usually monthly) basis. Find your nearest branch now.

Alternatively, online membership is now available for any referee who wishes to take up central membership. The National RA will then allocate you a local branch. Join now.
