3 Introduction The referee plays an essential role to a successful match. First and foremost, without a referee, a match cannot be played. The referee has the responsibility of controlling the field of play, controlling the tempo of the game, applying the Laws of the Game, and the safety of the players. If the referee applies these responsibilities correctly, each game will be fun, fair, and safe. We have created this handbook to assist those referee volunteers in the U5, U6, and U8 divisions and provide the basics to run a successful match. Once you become comfortable with refereeing at this level, we encourage you to take the next step and take the Regional Referee course as it is required to referee in the U10 and higher divisions. Should you have any questions about refereeing, please our referee team at ref@ayso779.com. We have many volunteers who will be able to assist you. Thank you for volunteering your time so that our children can have a great soccer experience.

Verify that size 3 soccer balls are being used and that they are properly inflated. Determine which team will be taking the kick-off and which goals the teams will be defending. It is recommended that the visiting team kick-off and the home team choose which goal they want to defend first. However, if you choose to do a coin toss, the winner of the toss chooses which goal to defend and the loser of the toss kicks off first. Talk to the players briefly and remind them to be safe and have fun. 4
5 Game Time : Start the game on time! During the Match: Make sure the teams switch goals and the team that team that did not kick off on the first half, kicks off for the second half.

They may not stand in front of the ball. Keeping the Game Flowing It is important to understand that at this age that kids are learning the game. It is also important to keep the game flowing as players only improve when they are playing and the game times are short. The game is also more enjoyable for the spectators. In order to keep the game flowing, please keep the following in mind: Once the game starts, the clock continues to run until the half is over. There are no timeouts. No time is added for water breaks at the quarters, for substitutions, or injuries during the match. Don t blow the whistle every time the ball goes out of play or every time a player falls down. The only time the whistle needs to be blown is to signal a kick-off, a free kick, the start of play, the end of the game, or when it is needed to get players attention. Here are some examples: Example 1 - The ball goes out of bounds across the touch line. Don t blow the whistle if: A player from the team awarded the throw-in is the only player that goes to collect the ball to perform the throw-in. 11
12 Do blow the whistle if: A player from the team that was not awarded the throw-in goes to collect the ball or several players continue to play the ball after it has crossed the touch line. Example 2 - A player trips over their shoelaces and falls down on the field. Don t blow the whistle if: The player is able to get back up in a short time period and continue to play. Do blow the whistle if: The player does not get up, there is a safety issue due to play that is happening in his or her immediate vicinity, or appears injured after getting up. In this case, the restart should be for the team that last possessed the ball. Example 3. A player performs a throw-in, but raises a foot in the process. Don t blow the whistle for this as they are just starting to learn at this age. 12
