ref week 11-30

Safe Players=Happy Players=Happy Ref
 
First, Thank you ALL for your hard last week.  We had a successful week.
 
MINI FIELD
If you referee the min field...please remember to encourage no play in the box and don't touch the ball in the box.  Right now it is U8 only so that means there are players as young as 6 playing so remember that when trying to get the box rule established.  Use your best judgment.  If a team is winning easily, be a little more lenient...stop the game, explain quickly and offer a free kick...
 
We have a lot of staff available to ref.  Keep in mind seniority will get more shifts...but I will also be looking at quality of officiating.
Generally speaking we are all doing well.  Very few complaints.
If I do not get your availability then I can't schedule you.

Thanksgiving Week Schedule

 
 
Safe Players = Happy Players = Happy Reffing!!!!
 
Don't be afraid to go the extra mile!
 
Housekeeping...Don't forget, black shocks and dark colored shoes.  I believe if we are reffing and not wearing those we will be asked to go home for the night.
Also, please do not use your phone during a game...it sends a VERY  poor message to players.
 
Here we GO!!!  The first of many more VERY BUSY weeks to come.  I believe I nailed everyone's availability.
Donald is back in town, Zeek is back in town and Maggie is available at times to assist so you will see some new names on the schedule.
Please work with me or other officials if I blew it and scheduled you incorrectly.  You would not believe how long it takes to try and get this straight.
I do my best to get you the amount of games you request of you do.
 
 
I appreciate ALL of you.  This is a good group of people to work with so lets keep working hard to put a our best foot forward. 
 
THANKS!!!

ref week 11-16

 Safe Players=Happy Players-Happy Reffing
 
Before I forget, when you send your availability you can also tell me how many shifts you would ideally like for the week if you are looking for a certain number in a given week.  You don't have to do that but you can if you have a specific need for a week.  I will always do the best I can to get you the shifts you want.

Well, here we go.  Youth is in in full swing and I am at Wits end trying to get everything scheduled.  I forgot how long it takes to get this together with so many games.
We have new refeees and AR's so I have added the list of names with phone numbers. 
 
I think I got everyone on schedules they can work.  If not I apologize.
