To Whistle Or Not To Whistle?
Things You Didn't Know About Things You Know Well

Referees must make quick decisions, and the luxury of time to think it over, look it up or discuss it with someone is not an option during the game. Test your knowledge and see if you can answer the following questions: 

What should the referee do and how is play restarted, if...

1.  The blue team's goalkeeper miskicks a goal kick, which comes to a stop next to the penalty mark. A red team player quickly runs into the penalty area and kicks the ball directly into the goal. The blue team goalkeeper then violently strikes the red team kicker inside the penalty area.

2.  An indirect free kick is awarded to the red team seven yards in front of the blue team's goal. The ball is quickly placed legally for the kick by a red team player and the referee signals for the kick to be taken. Before the ball is kicked, the blue team goalkeeper violently strikes a red team player who is standing beside him on the goal line between the goal posts.

3.  A penalty kick is awarded to the red team. The blue team's goalkeeper saves the resulting penalty kick shot and then violently throws the ball at the red team kicker who is still inside the penalty area striking him in the face.

4.  During play, a jolly old fat man with a long grey beard and a bright red suit lands his sleigh in the middle of the field and wants to hand out presents to all the good little boys and girls.

Tip Of The Month
Need More Refs? Ask The Players!

Patrick Streeter, Madison, Alabama

Finding enough referees is not an uncommon problem. An excellent source of referees is available in every region with players 12 years of age or older. Players make excellent referees because they have played the game and that gives them an advantage over many adults. It's a win win situation: players who become referees learn more about the game which helps them as players, and the region benefits by increasing their referee numbers. Every region should have a Youth Referee Program and The National Referee Program has two excellent supporting publications; "Developing and Maintaining a Youth Referee Program" and "Youth Referee Manual". These manuals, as well as all of the other AYSO referee publications, are available online at aysohelp.org and can be purchased from the AYSO Supply Center at 888-243-2976.
 
The important thing to remember about a youth referee program is to ensure the young referees are well trained and well supported. Adult advisors/mentors should be assigned to help support each youth referee. Often the most difficult challenge for youth referees is building confidence in their officiating. Youth referees, may find it difficult and even scary at times when there is a need to counsel an adult coach or spectator regarding their behavior. So, for all of us who have the chance to support these young people in their volunteer efforts to perform this challenging task, let's do our best to provide these brave young referees with positive encouragement for their growth as referees and, more importantly, for their growth as young adults.
