Across Australia, sports organizations are facing an increasingly familiar challenge: managing referees at scale. Whether it's local footy leagues, basketball tournaments, netball clubs, or multi-sport associations, the expectations on assignors and coordinators keep growing. More matches. More officials. More moving parts.
But in 2025, relying on spreadsheets, emails, and messaging apps just isn’t good enough. Referee management requires a system that brings everything together in one place — clean, fast, and reliable.
Refr Sports is that system. Built from the ground up to support referee operations, Refr is the all-in-one platform that’s redefining how sports organizations in Australia assign, track, and manage their officials.
Refr doesn’t come from a generic admin platform. It was designed specifically for the people running referees — with tools that reflect real-life needs.
Whether you're overseeing rugby in regional NSW or managing netball referees in Victoria, Refr gives you the power to:
You’re not patching together a dozen tools. You’re working from one system that does what it’s supposed to do — support you.
Every country runs officiating a little differently — and Australia is no exception. Multiple roles, rotating crew models, wide geographic coverage, and certification requirements can all make things complex.
Refr adapts to those nuances. You can manage different pay rates by league or location, track officials across state lines or seasonal sports, and schedule based on distance or previous matchups — all while maintaining control from one central platform.
Whether you're managing volunteers or certified pros, Refr fits the workflow.
Nothing slows things down more than unclear communication. Refr removes that friction by giving assignors and referees a single communication channel, tied directly to the assignments.
Everything’s in sync — which means less chasing, fewer surprises, and more time focused on the games.
From local clubs to national-level competitions, Refr grows with your needs. The platform can support:
You don’t need a new system when things expand. You just scale with what’s already working.
