Online Course - Mini
101 - Mini Soccer Rules This is a self-paced, online
course for referees, coaches and players who want to learn
or review the rules.
Referees should be 13 years of age or
older and must attend indoor and outdoor training sessions and
meetings as required. 12 year olds will be considered and are
welcome to apply and attend the training sessions. If, after
training, we do not feel an applicant is ready to referee,
they may volunteer to help out. By watching and assisting
experienced referees they will gain knowledge, experience and
confidence and may be given an opportunity to referee later in the
season.
Qualifications:
- confident, energetic and enthusiastic
- dependable, hard working
- understanding of soccer game and rules
- dedicated and self-motivated to train and improve their knowledge
of the game
Responsibilities include:
- Arriving in uniform at the scheduled time (referees must purchase
their own uniform and whistle).
- Setting up the fields before the game (this may include setting up
portable nets)
- Assisting the teams with the warm up and practices
- Refereeing the game
- Making sure all equipment has been returned and the field is clear
of all garbage and water bottles.
Training sessions
are held both indoor and outdoor. The referee training for the
outdoor season is held in April and/or May.
The training
includes:
- responsibilities of the referee
- player safety & what to do in case of injuries
- review of the rules & testing
- on field instruction & practice (hand signals, following the play,
making decisions, blowing the whistle loudly etc.)
- ongoing support, assistance and supervision during the season as
required
Referees are paid by
the hour, not by the game and are expected to arrive on time and
fulfill all assigned responsibilities.
