The SKA is making progress with its referee development programme (see this link), with an intention of enabling all league games to be refereed by people with appropriate experience and/or qualifications. In brief:
- “top-end” league matches are supposed to be reffed by Level 3 refs, or by Level 2’s who are striving to become Level 3’s,
- “lower-end” matches may be refereed by Level 2’s refs, or by Level 1’s who are striving to become Level 2 or Level 3’s.
So here are a couple of tables to show who is currently qualified to referee what, and to keep everyone up-to-date with progress…
Firstly, the latest list of “qualified” Scottish referees at Levels 3, 2, and 1:

Next, the list of provisionally graded refs that we started 3 years ago (not much use in itself, but it does serve as a reminder of a few people that we’d still like to get on board). This is the list that we recently submitted to the IKF for help with referee development.
