During the season, each age group (or division) has a Referee Coordinator, who handles referee issues for the referees in that group. In particular, these individuals schedule referees for games where neutral referees are assigned and help coaches recruit and train referees for the younger age groups where each team provides parent referees.
In addition, the Region schedules field observations of referees during the season to help them improve their technique. This is sometimes coordinated by a Regional Mentoring Coordinator.
