  1. “We have too many officials who do not take officiating females as seriously as when they officiate males”-Randy Vogt This is Why we are HerePoints of Emphasis for the 2013 Spring Season

  2. And Now for the Girls-Today’s Agenda • Professionalism • Concussions • Mercy Rule • 2 Man Mechanics and Positioning • Assistant Referee Area of Patrol • The Girls High School Game

  3. Professionalism: Pre-Match Contact • Referee contacts crew/partner 48 hours before match • Assistant Referee contacts crew/partner 24 hours before match if no contact is made by Referee • Regional Supervisor gets a call if AR does not hear from Referee 23 hours and 59 minutes before kickoff

  4. Professionalism: Pre-game Arrival • Get to the field ON TIME. • You must be on the field DRESSED at least 15 minutes before any match that begins before 6PM. • You must be on the field DRESSED at least 30 min. before any game which begins at 6:15 or later • If you can’t get there on time DECLINE THE GAME.

  5. Professionalism-Addressing the Players • Do not address the players with “Sweetie”, “Darling” or “Honey” • Treat the players with the respect you would expect from them

  6. Professionalism: Work Rate • Are you staying with the second to last defender or are you ball watching? • As the refeee are you hustling into the corners opposite of your AR? • PERCEPTION IS REALITY

  7. Professionalism: ”Off Duty” Attire • When you get the rosters from the coaches, what are you wearing? • Are you in full uniform? • Are your socks pulled down? • If you finish a JV game and are watching the Varsity game, are you still in uniform?

  8. Concussions • Are you checking the balls before the game….to make sure they are not too hard? • Females tend to like less air in the ball • Keep in mind the early part of the season is COLD

  9. Mercy Rule • Question: Team A scores a ninth goal with 4 minutes left in the first half of a NCHSAA game to go up 9-0. Is the game over? • Question: Team A scores a ninth goal with 5 minutes left in a NCHSAA game to go up 9-0. The coaches both agree they want to keep playing. Can you grant the wishes of the coach?

  10. 2 Referee (2 Man) System • There is nothing wrong with going into both halves of the field • Who is responsible for time keeping at places where there is not a scoreboard? • Where does the TRAIL referee stand during the taking of a corner kick?

  11. 2 Man Positioning Bonus Question: Who calls a throw in when the ball is on your touchline in the opposite half?

  12. Assistant Referee Area of Patrol • You are an ASSISTANT REFEREE, not an INSISTANT REFEREE • When thinking about raising the flag for a foul, consider: -“DOES THE REFEREE NEED THE FLAG?” (Ex. Is he or she caught on a counter-attack?) • “DOES THE GAME NEED THE FLAG?” (Ex. A player punches the ball away from the goal)

  13. Assistant Referee Area of Patrol Green=Good area to assist referee if foul is needed Yellow=Good area to assist referee is foul occurs and game needs it Red=Only raise flag if you feel the game will lose control, an improper goal occurs, or a team is cheated out of a goal AR

  14. Bench Placement • Benches should be placed opposite the AR if benches are on both sides. • NCHSAA mandate • Get to field early and move them yourself if needed AR Bench Bench AR

  15. Foul Language • What is it? Something you would not say in school. • Remember, High School athletics are an extension of the classroom. • If you can't say it in the classroom, you can't say it on the playing field • Must be dealt with. However, it does not have to be a card

  16. Foul Language • Any Foul Language + the word YOU= RED CARD (ex. “You B*%#^H” or “Ref you MotherF&%$#R”) • Any Foul Language which is audible enough to be heard by both team = YELLOW CARD (“F^*&K ME” or “Oh S&^T”) • Any incidental foul language only heard by Center Referee = Verbal Admonishment by center referee • Let's not have rabbit ears but let's not ignore it either

  17. The Women’s Game http://www.wect.com/category/240209/video?autoStart=true&topVideoCatNo=default http://www.aol.com/video/soccer-mean-girl-player-slams-opponent-in-head-with-ball-twice/517532463/?icid=maing-grid10%7Chtmlws-main-bb%7Cdl19%7Csec1_lnk1%26pLid%3D231780 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GWDyMlo4D6E

  18. Summary as we Prepare for Spring 2013 POINTS OF EMPHASIS • Treat the girl’s game with the same respect on and off the field you would treat the men • Get to the field on time so you can inspect the field and BALL PRESSURE to prevent concussions • Be cognizant of the mercy rule • Call fouls but do so only in your area if needed • Benches are to be placed opposite the AR • Deal with Foul Language. Don't look for it but rather deal with it when it occurs. • Be Fair to the game we all love
