Referees are an essential part of tournament play, dedicating their time and energy to this great sport. With the rapid growth of pickleball, the demand for referees has never been higher. Recognizing this, the Asia Federation of Pickleball (AFP) is committed to expanding our official teams across Asia. We're building a strong and reliable team of referees ready to step in and ensure the highest standards of officiating at all our tournaments.
