Become an Official
Officiating is a fun and exciting way to become involved with lacrosse. It's a great way to keep fit, and you will have the best view of the action! It is also a great way to earn some extra money while giving back to the sport and your club.
Receive your accreditation by achieving a score of at least 60% on the relevant online test.
Accreditation lasts for one year from March to March. This is in line with ALRA officiating practices.
All of the 2020 Referee and Umpire Tests are now available.
Please note for the Men's exam, FIL timings are on the exam. Lacrosse Victoria will keep the time constraints as were in place in 2019.
Also, ALA have instituted a policy for annual accreditation. Starting in 2020 Lacrosse Victoria will follow this policy as well.
All payments will be made based on the level of accreditation you have achieved. If you have passed the U13 Boys Online test then you will only be paid for U13 or U11 Boys games and not U15 or higher.
