​Instructions for Coordinators


You will receive the referee assignments for your fields.  This list is private and confidential and not to be shared with anyone else.

1.      Print out the 
Tournament Rules, Referee Assignments and Tournament Schedule.  Know the game durations.  

2.      If a referee has not checked in with you 20 minutes before game time please call them.  

3.      Make sure the games remain on time.  Make sure the teams have checked in with the Tournament staff at least 15 mins before game time. 

4.      Come ready to referee, jump in if there is a no-show. 

5.      Help with safety checks, pregames, and admin.  Many of the tournament staff will be new volunteers, treat them kindly and assist them if you can.

6.      If a referee has trouble with a coach or team and they have them a 2nd time (especially small-sided games), switch their field if possible.  We do NOT want games to be terminated, any trouble have the referee suspend the game and contact you and you help find a solution.

8.      Keep track of any assignment changes that will affect payments and email them to the assignor.

Tournament Staff

Tournament staff are usually volunteers, so let's make sure we contribute to a good experience.

Here are some things to do:
  1. Introduce yourself, give them your phone number just in case they need you.
  2. Find out how they will be doing check-in.  Let's help make sure all the teams are checked in no later than 15 mins before kickoff.
  3. Team warm-up: ask that teams not warm up on the field between games, we want to keep the games on time
  4. Spectators: request that spectators are on the proper side and at least 2 yards (6 feet) from the touch line.  This includes umbrellas.  It is for the safety of the players, spectators and referees.
  5. If a coach, manager or parent has a complaint have the Tournament Staff ask them to write down the date, field, game starting time, what happened and their name and phone number.  
  6. Game (Score) Cards: make sure they are filled out correctly before giving them to the Tournament Staff
