SCHEME TO SUPPORT YOUNG KENDAL UNITED PLAYERS TO BECOME REFEREES AND COACHES.

KU coaches can nominate players that they think good candidates for the scheme.

KU players can join the programme from year 8.

An important part of the scheme is that the young people are reliable and serious.

Junior Referees and Coaches:

  • Aged 13 – 18 (Year 8+)
  • Help out at 12 Saturday morning sessions to get experience of the coaching set up, delivering lots of coaching sessions and refereeing lots of games of junior football.
  • Once these sessions are complete and the young person is 14 years old the club will pay for the FA Referees Course.
  • Young people who are 16 or older who have completed the necessary number of sessions may be funded to do the FA Introduction to Coaching Football Course.
  • Once they have completed the course the young people can join the pool of KU referees and coaches – potential paid work.
