• WSF Technical Delegate: Thomas Troedsson

REFEREEING Do I need to ref a match?
Yes, every player is scheduled to be the referee directly after your own match (either you win or lose) together with your opponent. Both players stay behind the court and use the LiveScore tablets to keep the score.
If you are lucky one of our certified international referees is assigned to the match. The Championships referee can assign you to another match. Or you volunteer to do one as we need all the help we can get.
WSF strongly recommend for all the players to complete the WSO Player course before the commencement of any WSF competitions. https://worldsquashofficiating.com/courses/player-certificate-tournament-level/
