Who this template is for
Referee Application is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.
- Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in sports & recreation.
- Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
- Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
- Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 28 questions across 2 screens.
Why this form is useful
It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.
- 18 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
- It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
- It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
- It pins the request to a specific date.
- It captures a full postal address.
- It allows multiple selections without free text.
- It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
- Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.

Questions about this shared form
Is it for qualified officials only?
No. 'I would like to train' is a listed answer, because most leagues need to recruit and train rather than only appoint.
How is this different from a volunteer sign-up?
It captures qualification grade and expiry, governing body registration, travel range and appointment availability, which volunteering forms do not.
Why ask about conflicts of interest?
So appointments avoid fixtures involving a club the official is connected to, which protects both the official and the result.
Does it handle payments?
It records the preference. Match fees are usually paid through your own system after the fixture is confirmed.
Is the Referee Application template free to use?
Yes. You can preview and test Referee Application on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

It asks 28 questions across 2 pages, 18 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.
