Referee Tests ... Online

2007 Season: Once again we take the Referee and Scorers tests online. Referees are to take Referee Test A. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Robyn Filimaua, our Regional Officials Chair.

As a National or Junior National referee, you must be a member in good standing in a region within USA Volleyball. Without registration in a region, you are in danger of losing your national or junior national patch. Please register with your region immediately.

To take the USAV exam separately, simply complete the test form with only the USAV information. Jr. National and National referees also have to log into the referee database to verify their identity.

Note that as a USAV nationally certified referee, you must answer the USAV portion of the exam closed-book and attain a score of at least 90%. You will have 60 minutes to complete the exam. If you do not achieve a score of 90% or higher on the USAV portion of the exam, or you do not complete the exam in the required 60 minutes, your referee chair will contact you about taking the Form B exam, which cannot be taken on line.

When you complete the USAV referee exam, results are automatically sent to your regional chair, to yourself, and to me. Please remember that this exam must be to me by the deadline of February 15, 2007; however your region may have requirements to take the exam earlier.
