ESR Instructional Staff are qualifed through the UKCC government backed training for Tutors (Certificate in Tutoring Sport) unless they already hold a formal teaching degree or qualification. Future England Squash & Racketball Referee Instructors will be trained and qualified to this standard. The methods and format for educating our referees has been largely unchanged for some years and has been long due for an overhaul. During 2008, we have launched a newly formatted referee training syllabus to be used by our Instructors This aims to improve the quality of our training and offer a more comprehensive and ‘user friendly’ method of educating referees. The following is a list of all current Referee Instructors. To contact any of the instructors listed, contact Martin Roberts using the Contact Us link on the menu below.
If you are interested in becoming a referee, the first parts of your training are to attend an approved ESR Referee Training Workshop and pass a referees examination. For details of forthcoming Training Workshops, please refer to bottom of the page. Examinations are usually carried out a short period of time after attending a workshop and can be done by e mail attachment from your instructor.
