Pregames & Check-in

When you arrive check the fields, goals, anchors and nets.  Any problems notify the home team coach or manager.  

Referee Pregame is important:
  • Please do not take your eye off the penalty area when the ball or an opponent is present.  
  • Injury procedure is important, make sure you know it.  
  • AR responsibilities
  • Make sure you go over the substitution procedure.  AR's should acknowledge when the substitution is complete.
  • U12 & below matches talk about throw-ins, injuries, sideline behavior, heading, build out line, ...
  • Olders talk about fouls, especially persistent and misconduct.
  • Please do not speak to the spectators, any challenges speak to the Team Admin or Coach.

Coaches and Team Managers
  • Introduce yourself and smile
  • Have both coaches meet and introduce themselves.
  • Go over any administrative responsibilities (Game Card, ID Cards, ...)
  • Go over any LEAGUE RULES and substitution procedure.
  • Safety of the players
  • I acknowledge that they may not like all our calls, but to please be respectful of them.  I tell them that we are the adults, let's set the right example for the players.
  • Home team - ask for three properly inflated soccer balls. Make sure they are the correct size; inflated and are not damaged in a way that may injure the players.
  • Referee to collect fees from each team.
  • Request that spectators remain on the proper side of the field, not behind the goal lines, unless there is a fence or structure that separates them from the field of play.
  • Ask the coach or manager to have the spectators and umbrellas a minimum of three yards off the touch line
