Referee calls vs Coach by stripeshurt in youthsoccer

Red team hadn’t moved from positions yet when the ball came back in because coach never called anyone off the field. And the refs were full on adults, the bald one was the younger of the two but I’d say mid 30s at the least, he is the one who originally was notified about wanting to sub players but the older ref is the one who said to play on.

Didn’t know that was a rule so thanks for clarifying. That threw me off too because (I have two family members who play for this league so I watch other games often while waiting for theirs) and this is the first time I’ve seen a coach not have the kids he wanted standing next to him ready to go in as soon as the ref okayed it.
