A two-day padel-specific Referee course is currently being developed and is at the pilot stage. Passing this course will give you the necessary skills and knowledge to deliver and run padel competitions at local and county level.

The course is assessed by an exam on the second day and an LTA Officials Licence is required to pass.

The pre-requisites to attend a Padel Referee course are:

• Be aged 16 and above
• Be a current UK resident
• Have completed either the Competition Organiser course or the Court Supervisor course

You must satisfy all 3 requirements at the time of booking.

You can book your Padel Referee course here.

Alternatively, and if no Padel courses are available, it is possible to attend and pass the two-day Tennis Referee course and then complete and pass a free online Padel Referee Conversion course.
