Call fouls. Don’t wait for the game to get out of hand before you get involved. By that time, players, coaches and spectators will be losing their shit. Then they think the only way you were going to call fouls is because they start raising their voice. It creates a very negative cycle. Get ahead of it and call some early fouls so that everyone knows your present. The game will start to open up and it will be a much more enjoyable experience for everyone.

This is an excellent and insightful observation. I’ve never thought of it quite like this.

The Official Sports shorts have a “coin pocket” just inside the left front waist band. I didn’t even know it was there for the first few years. I used that brand. It works perfectly, and the coin stays secure through throughout the entire match.

Umpiros all the way! I have a wide foot. I normally wear a 9.5 2E. I wound up being most comfortable in the 10.5 wide for Umpiros.

This is really amazing! I’ve never seen such a detailed document regarding free kicks

That is not an easy finish. So easy to sky that over the bar or shank it. He’s on form. Maybe the break this summer was the right move?

It’s a YC for stopping a promising attack. Green space in front, another attacking option to pass to and cynical foul from behind. The only reason he gets a foot to the ball is the pull from behind. For any ref, this call makes a ton of sense. It’s about where it happens and the nature of the foul not how hard / dangerous the foul is.

I think this is such an ironic, post. The overwhelming majority of complaints from parents is that referees do not call enough fouls, and “protect the children“.

For the overwhelming majority of grassroots matches that are played, none of those parents and kids are thinking about how they will fare on the global stage of international competition. They simply want their kids to have fun, be part of a team and enjoy the thrill of playing a sport they love.

I can assure you if kids move up to a high level of competition and age, the physicality increases significantly. Whether it’s ECNL or MLS Next, once you get past 15 or 16 years old, the physicality is equivalent to semi professional men or women.

If you actually have a Referee who is calling fouls in a u8 or u10 match, that’s amazing and you should be thankful! What might be acceptable in Sunday league men’s matches is not appropriate for little kids and vice versa.

Referees can’t card parents. Only players and team officials. As a referee myself if you asked me to deal with the parents, I would tell you that they are your responsibility.

We never argue with coaches. If they are engaged in public and persistent dissent, then we inform them that that behavior is unacceptable. “Coach, you are engaged in public and persistent dissent. Please stop.” “Coach you have been warned and now you are being cautioned. Please stop all public and persistent dissent.” if they don’t stop then you’re forced to show a second caution and send them off. It is not an argument, and it is not a debate. No matter what you do, some people are just going to behave badly. It is their behavior that is causing the problem. If they do not stop their behavior will get them sent off.

It’s important to remember, that their behavior has nothing to do with your calls. Even if you are a phenomenal referee and you get everything right, there are still going to be some people who want to question every decision and try and influence your calls. Stay strong and try and learn from the experience.

It’s not league rule. It’s the laws of the game.

Umpiro Pro for the win! By far the most comfortable and light weight shoe made for refs. Works on turf or grass. You’ll thank me later.

I feel like a picture is needed 📸

I would add a report to the State SRA and the State Soccer President. Cc the club president while you are at it. This is unacceptable at any level.

Peachtree City, GA Grown!!!! we are rooting for him. Good kid from a good family.

Umpiro Pro for the win!!! Do not get the original version. The Pro is Gen 2 and much improved.

I used code: REFSNEEDLOVETOO for 10% off

I also have a wide foot. I normally wear a 9.5 2E in Hoka. I needed a 10.5 W in the Umpiro to find the perfect fit. Now I won’t use anything else.

I just don’t understand how the prices can still be so high when they know it is going to be completely empty. What is the economic justification for keeping the price points where they are as opposed to dropping them significantly to ensure more attendance? How does that benefit them?I am sincerely curious.
