We use your membership fee to help cover the costs of venues, food for meetings, costs of special guests and materials to help develop you as a referee. Ultimately; your fee is being reinvested in you! The more members that join, the more we can do to help develop referees in the Greater Manchester area.

You only have to pay once a season! Fees are set at our AGM (Anual General Meeting) which every member of the Association is entitled to vote at - the membership is currently set at £20 for the season, which is half the fee of one game!

You are invited to join us at our Monthly Development Sessions with prestigious guests from top FIFA officials to physios, nurtitionists and fitness experts. You also have an offer to join our community groupchat, have games published in a professional weekly blog and recieve access to shared workout plans.

We host a Monthly Development Session every single month whilst we are in season, from July to May. Sessions are on the third Thursday of every month, with doors open from 19:00 and start at 19:30. Guests are welcome to come and see what we are about! We hold a friendly but competitive LOTG quiz every month, welcome a special guest, have food at meetings and refreshments available from the bar!

At Bury & North Manchester Referees' Association, we take the time to get to know you personally. We understand your struggles and strengths and can look to assist in development, whether that be linking you up with a mentor or coach at the association or simply getting you involved at our monthly meetings! Because we take the time to get to know you, we can help in whatever way is best suited for you; whether it be coaching, mentoring or the meetings! Either way - we will help you develop!
