In this episode of The Ref Collective, we sit down with David Gerson, founder of Refs Need Love Too, to discuss his journey from soccer enthusiast to referee advocate and community builder.

David shares how he got started in officiating, the challenges that nearly made him walk away, and the experiences that kept him coming back to the game. We dive into the story behind Refs Need Love Too, the mission that inspired it, and how a simple idea grew into a movement dedicated to supporting referees everywhere.


Whether you're a referee, coach, player, parent, or soccer fan, this conversation offers valuable insights into the people who make the game possible every weekend.
