The Green Whistle campaign is dedicated to establishing a respectful and appropriate environment for all referees, with a specific focus on referees under the age of 18.
In competitive and recreational environments, during competitive games, adults may lose perspective, which can have detrimental effects on participants, particularly those under the age of 18.
Recent Referee clinics in SK have successfully trained 84 new referees. 88% of them (74 referees) are under the age of 18.
Given the crucial role of referees under the age of 18 in ensuring the enjoyment of the sport for all, it is imperative that we collectively assume a strong responsibility to protect and safeguard them.
If their Whistle is Green, they are Under 18!
