Referee Levels

[Gabriel]

So, I thought I knew all about all the refereeing levels, but then I found something that said 4SAR to 4B and 3F to 3E. Can somone explain this please? I thought the only one with letters was 2(A/B)

4SAR = level 4 specialist assistant referee. Assume 4b is step 2 assistant referee.
3F to 3E I think is level 3 step 2 promoted to step 1 assistant referee

all the levels have letter in MOAS. They aren't really relevant at level 3 and 4 but more so at step 2 & 1

All listed on The FA website, from 2020 when we lost Contributory and Supply.

Found this in a what thread -
The FA Referees’ Committee have approved the change of name for refereeing levels within the National League System in readiness for 2020/21.

These changes look to reflect terminology consistent with levels used in the National League System to allow greater understanding of the refereeing pyramid across the football community. One element of the current environment largely misunderstood are the names of refereeing levels across the referee pyramid.

Consequently, with immediate effect, the names of levels within the refereeing pyramid will be changed as follows:

Current Name	New Name from 20/21	Referee Level	Assistant Referee Level
Panel Select	Step 1 List	2A	3E
Panel	Step 2 List	2B	3F
Contributory	Step 3/4 List	3A	4B
Supply	Step 5/6 List	4A	5/6/7
