The proposed course will be held at Scarborough Sixth Form College, kicking off on Monday October 15 with an introduction workshop.

This is followed by a safeguarding workshop a week later on Monday October 22 and then a practical day on Sunday November 4.

Candidates would then need to officiate five 11 or nine-a-side games within local grassroots football over a 15-week period.

Having done that, candidates will then have a final assessment and theory examination on Monday February 18.
