I have been asked to become the ref coordinator which is not a lot different for you all but I get some added responsibility. We will work on having a monthly ref meeting to meet and talk about teams, players, consistency in our calls etc...I do not look to make this a long drawn out meeting but a time to come together and make us all better as an AR or referee.
I will now review all red cards and work with the Manager on suspensions so feel free to let me know about red cards handed out if you wish. I will have access to the reports and video as needed.
I would like to see everyone dress appropriately. Black or darker colored shoes, long black socks, black shorts and the referee shirt. I understand you may forget something here and there which is ok, I do it too. But if you consistently are not dressed appropriately we will have to discuss.
We will keep everything else in tact that we are used to like as a referee when playing we should be showing the utmost respect to the officials and other players (as best you can)...we can discuss this at our first meeting.
A little homework for all. I would like to have a meeting this month with the most attendance possible so likely 5 or so during the week or before first game on a weekend. If you can think about what works best for you and let me know if weekdays or weekends work better that would be great.
Keep in mind one of our biggest reasons we are there is to keep players safe...next is to ref a fair game. But safety has to number 1...call too many fouls. I want to see a referee complaint that you called too many fouls .
