Officiating General Principles course
The General Principles component of the Officiating Course is divided into five 1.5 hour modules. To gain accreditation participants must complete the modules, and then complete the sport specific component through their sporting association.

The General Principles course equips beginner officials, umpires and referees with appropriate officiating methods and the confidence to officiate at the introductory level of their sport.
