Recertification and Registration

The Iowa Referee Committee (IRC) has OPENED the 2025 Registration Window with US Soccer for all Iowa Referees. US Soccer's 2025 registration year began on July 1, 2024 and will close June 30, 2025. Iowa is a Learning Center state. Recertification and Registration is accomplished entirely online through the US Soccer Learning Center. Use of a PC or Mac is recommended vs. a Smartphone. Chrome is the preferred browser.

If you were registered with US Soccer for 2024 licensed either as a Referee, Regional Referee, or Regional Emeritus Referee and would like to register for 2025, click on the corresponding referee badge below to start the process.

👉 IMPORTANT: If you let your registration lapse and did not register for 2024 but were registered in 2021, 2022, and/or 2023 and want to re-register, you can complete the applicable recertification module.

NOTE: If you believe that you satisfy the requirements to register as an Regional Emeritus Referee for the first time, contact the State Referee Administrator (SRA), Rob Sorey.

Official Sports International (OSI) will begin distributing 2025 Referee Badges to registered Iowa referees in November 2024. Make sure that your mailing address is current in your Learning Center Profile.

If you have questions about the 2025 Recertification and Registration process, e-Mail the State Director of Instruction (SDI), Alec Clark.

If you have questions or concerns regarding your Learning Center Profile, Background Check (if applicable), or the status of your registration, e-Mail US Soccer at referee@ussoccer.org.
