The CRA Members Portal gives you access to important referee information and resources, including red card reporting and the CRA store.

  2. Scroll down to New User Registration.
  3. Enter your details and submit your registration.

Dribl

Once your registration has been accepted your details will be transferred into Dribl, the competition management and referee appointments system for the CRA, this is where you make yourself available, receive appointments and complete your games. If you do not have it already, you will need to download the Dribl app from the Google Play or Apple Store.

Football Australia Learning Centre (Etrainu)

If you’ve just completed your referee training, you already have access to Etrainu. Keep your account active — you’ll use the Learning Centre to check your qualifications and complete further referee training as you progress.

You can normally sign in using your Play Football account details.

Go to the Football Australia Learning Centre

If you’re a returning referee and can’t access Etrainu immediately, you may need to wait until your Play Football registration has been accepted.
