Referee Resilience Project

PFRA is proud to launch the Referee Resilience Project, supporting the mental health and wellbeing of A-Leagues and Australian Championship match officials with practical, evidence-based tools to build resilience and stay in the game.

Huge thanks to @auspost and the 2025 People of Post Grants Program, and to Honorary Professor Richard Keegan for creating referee-specific mental health resources.

Because looking after match officials matters 💛
