We are excited to announce an exciting new synergy for all-round referee support as we announce our partnership with The Officials' Vault as its Official Technical Partner. Reaching your goals as a match official takes more than hard work – it takes the right tools and the right support.
The Officials' Vault is an all-in-one support hub for referees at every level – from grassroots to the Premier League – offering expert seminars, peer networking, career development tools, practical refereeing resources, and a members-only forum led by vastly experienced match official, Andy Davies.
Together, we are building a pathway for referees at every stage of their journey – combining expert mentorship and development through The Officials' Vault with high-quality equipment from Grassroots Referees to help referees perform at their best.
Speaking of the partnership, Andy Davies, former Championship Referee and Premier League Official, said: “Referees need more than knowledge; they need the right equipment to perform with confidence. Partnering with Grassroots Referees ensures officials have access to reliable tools, backed by a platform designed to guide and support them throughout their career.”
Steve Chittenden, founder of Grassroots Referees, commented: "Grassroots Referees exists to support match officials as they begin their journey from attending the course to climbing the refereeing ladder. Working with The Officials' Vault allows us to combine expertise and equipment to truly empower the referee community."
