I assume this if for football try http://www.thefa.com I think they have just launched some on-line courses. Also while on the FA site click on refereeing then getting involved there is some more info there specifically to do with refereeing. Give your local collages a try they sometimes do refereeing courses try http://www.yell.com for collages near you. If the above information is no good the do a quick search for "refereeing courses". Hope this helps.

I assume you mean Bristol, UK. If so go to gloucestershirefa.com/aboutus/contacts and get their phone number. Amazingly they do not have a page for prospective referees. You will have to do a course, which is easy if you kow the game and can read. Its a long time since I passed the course but I heard there is now a requirement to referee a few games before officially becoming a ref. I'm in the USA now so maybe I'm not completely up to date. I would also recommend making contact with your local Referees' Association. They can be a great help throughout your career. I believe there are branches in Bristol, Cheltenham and Stroud and there may be more.
Good luck with whatever you do in the game. I reffed for 20 years, had one season at semi-pro and the rest of the time was spent on the public parks. I wouldn't swap that time for anything.
