"We are soccer referees. Our job is to be impartial...!!!"

CONGRATULATIONS to Mr. Eric Evans he has been nominated as a Honorary Life Member. Mr. Eric Evans will be the guest of honor at our fall 2009 AGM this coming November.

The Ontario Soccer Referees' Association (OSRA) is a provincial assocation that works towards improving the standard and welfare of soccer referees.

The OSRA is organized into Branches, which are local referee associations. Most members of the Toronto Branch live in or near the old City of Toronto. There are also Branches in Scarborough, North York, Mississauga, York Region, and beyond.

Almost all senior referees in Toronto belong to the Toronto Branch. Our members come from all over the world and have a variety of refereeing experience, from beginning referees all the way up to National and International referees. We are united by our love of the game of soccer.

The Toronto Branch provides many opportunities throughout the year for referees to meet their colleagues. We hold a general meeting in May and November, as well as weekly education sessions from January to May.

Game Appointments: We distribute our Membership List to Referee Schedulers to help them make game appointments. If you are not satisfied with your game appointments, we can help you.

Education:    The Toronto Branch organizes all continuing education for senior officials in Toronto.

Fellowship:   The Toronto Branch provides fellowship with your refereeing colleagues. We organize education meetings, business meetings, and social events.

E-Magazine: Toronto Branch membership includes a subscription to the OSRA e-magazine CanSoRef.

Support:         Refereeing is usually enjoyable, but sometimes it can be very difficult. The Toronto Branch will assist you whenever you ask.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT: This is to inform the Branch Members that Mr. Walter Ingles our Registrar for so many years is stepping down from his position. Althought Walter was elected for a two year term this past November 2008 AGM but because of family commitements Walter have decided to step down because he was not giving his 100% to the position. Presonally, I do regret loosing Walter on the Branch Executive because of his dedication to the cause we all share i.e. The betterment of soccer referees in Toronto, Ontario and Canada as a whole.

As we all know family comes first and Walter have selected to take care of his family first and which I do agree with him because I have done it before while serving on the executive.

Therefore, on behalf of the Branch and the executive I would like to thank Mr. Walter Ingle for all his work for the betterment of OSRA Toronto Branch.

WALTER THANK YOU....=:)
