Philosophy of Refereeing

Fun

Fair

SafeEVERYONE PLAYS BALANCED TEAMS OPEN REGISTRATION


All Referees are Volunteers

All Referees are protected by Alabama Law, Section 13A-11-144

“Harassment, etc., of sports official”

All Official U10 and Up Games must have at least one Center

Referee signed up in www.sportac.us to avoid the game being cancelled

When competing versus out of Region teams, it’s important to ensure

An official Referee is signed up, as some Regions are not permitted to

Play without a Referee

In the event that a referee does NOT show up for an in Region game,

It is permissible to handle the game like a scrimmage with coaches on the

Field

It is preferred that U8 games also have an Official Referee

Email Bob Bradley for questions. [email protected]

Law Changes

• Removal of “triple punishment” scenario

–DOGSO sanctions: play down + PK + Red Card suspension

–NEW LAW: “legitimate attempt to play the ball” results in fouls –

player cautioned (YELLOW) instead of Sent Off (RED)

–NOTES:

• Only applies to fouls inside the penalty area

• Referee’s opinion if “legitimate attempt to play the ball”

• Foul outside penalty area would be subject to a send off

• Kick-off now kicked in any direction, including backwards

• Players injured in a reckless or excessive force challenge (resulting in

caution or send off) NOT required to leave field to receive treatment

(expeditious treatment)

• Goalkeeper comes off line during PK is cautioned if the kick fails, and PK

re-taken

Law Changes

• Kicker of penalty kick violates Laws, then kick NOT retaken. Restart

IFK for defending team

• Foul occurs when players are off field (through course of normal play),

then restart is appropriate free kick on the touchline or goal line

–Old Laws: play restarts dropped ball. Only misconduct committed

off the field

–New Laws: could result in a penalty kick being awarded

• Offside restarts now taken from the point on the field where the

offending player was when they became offside

–Old Laws: restart taken from the point where they were originally

in an offside position

Heading Changes• New AYSO policy is that there will be no

heading U11 and below.

• AYSO 498 Madison does not have a U11 division, so this new rule will apply to U12 and Below



• U12 and Below:– No heading during practices

– Coaches are not to coach heading

– Indirect Free Kick for Deliberate headers during games (In the opinion of the referee)

– Headers inside the goal area

• U14– Coaches can coach heading

– No more that 20 headers during practices a week

– Unlimited heading during games

• U16/U19– No Change

Coach Administrator Points • EBOPSP – Everyone will play and an attempt

will be made to equalize time – equal time means that different players will start from week to week and an attempt will be made to get different players the extra quarter from week to week

• EBOPSP – Good Sportsmanship – Show it and teach it! P.I.E. Positive Instructional Encouragement

• Do not run up the score – no matter how strong your team is, try to keep the goal difference less than 4



Coach Administrator Points (continued)

• No dissent with referee – If there is an issue with a misapplication of the Laws then

coaches can write an email to [email protected], he will make sure that the referee understands the laws so that the correction is made for the future

– Everything else is a judgment call!– Remember that we are all volunteers and most of our referees

are also learning more about the game.

• Incident Reports– All injuries that keep a player from returning to the game need to

be reported to the RC

• No jewelry, watches, or hair beads at practices or games• ALL PLAYERS MUST WEAR SHIN GUARDS DURING

ALL PRACTICES AND ALL GAMES!EVERYONE PLAYS BALANCED TEAMS OPEN REGISTRATION

Changes to Youth Soccer

In the name of Player Development, smaller fields will:

1. Increase speed of thought

2. Rewards better soccer over better athletes

3. Develop improved skills with the ball

4. Improve confidence and comfort

5. Develop intelligence with and without the ball

6. Promote faster decisions and better awareness

7. Develop partnerships within the team

o U12 and Below

o No Heading

o No Punting- Instead a Goal-Keeper should pass the ball

to a teammate.

o U10 and Below

o Practice backing away from Goal Kicks- Prepares players/coaches for the “Build-Out Lines” coming Fall 2017



o U8 and Below

o No THROW-INS Restarts from the Sidelines/Touchlines

Will be Kick-pass-ins or Dribble-ins. Keeps the ball from being directed at

Players’ heads (like a throw-in) and encourages faster play & more soccer brain.

Is it better to pass to a teammate or dribble in myself?

o No Direct Kicks All restarts, fouls included, will be

Indirect Free Kicks
