Becoming a Referee
We are always looking for Intramural and BAYS referees. It is a great way to contribute to Newton Soccer, be involved with the game, and make some money.
The IM referee program is available to Newton 6th through 8th graders only.
The BAYS referee program is available to anyone 14 years or older and 8th grade or older.
Registration for the 2025-2026 IM referee program will open mid-July. Please check back for a registration link.
Intramural Referees
There is a pre-season Intramural training program in the fall for incoming 6th, 7th and 8th graders. This is a one-time mandatory event. If you would like to referee games this fall or spring, you must attend this session. No previous referee experience is necessary. You will be assigned to games appropriate to your age and experience. This will improve your understanding of the game, it is fun and you get PAID! Please talk to your friends to join the orientation as well!

BAYS (Travel) Referees
Once you are trained to be an Intramural referee, and meet the age requirements, you may move on to become USSF certified to referee BAYS games.

Refund Policy
No Refund Policy
NYS has a no-refund policy for all Vacation Programs. The only exception to this policy is in the event NYS cancels a program or a player is unable to attend due to injury. In these situations, registered families will be offered a credit to their account which can be used for any future NYS program, or entitled to a full refund. Where a player is forced to miss a program due to injury a full refund is subject to supporting evidence from a registered medical practitioner.
