Referees

We use certified referees for all of our travel program games and try our best for our recreation program. The entire state is in critical need of referees so from time to time we will use non certified referees for recreational games.

If you are interested in becoming a certified referee, please visit www.michiganrefs.org/become-a-referee/

If you are interested in becoming a non-certified referee for our recreational program, please contact Gary Puvalowski at FreelandSCPresident@gmail.com or Gino Garza at g8vgti@yahoo.com.
