The WGS provides referees at all levels with a comprehensive online administration profile.

This means referees at grassroots level can now enjoy many of the online processes currently available to colleagues operating at the highest levels of the game.

Following the success of online referee registration of the last three years, referees will once again be able to register electronically for the 2019-20 season through the Whole Game System.

HOW TO ACCESS THE WGS

From the 1st May you can access the registration portal using the following link: Whole Game System

In order to access online referee registration via the WGS, referees require their FAN number and password. 

Please ensure the details you enter when registering are accurate and correct i.e. email address, contact details, address etc.
