Hackney Marshes Female Referees Academy Scholarship Programme
The aim of the programme is to introduce refereeing into a diverse demographic within the community, with a greater focus of attention on increasing the number of females who are officiating in the game.
Alongside the outcome of our successful candidates gaining a formal footballing qualification there will also be an opportunity for them to be assigned regular matches and be paid.
