Here in Louisiana, the State Referee Committee ("SRC") is one of several LSA Committees and shall oversee the administration of US Soccer's Referee Program including the training, development, instruction, assignment, and assessment of referees. The SRC shall develop the appropriate procedures and policies for oversight of referees, instructors, assessors, and assignors to insure they perform their respective functions.
