hahaha I felt like saying this too. :D
Time to go watch a local men's high school scrimmage. Good luck Northgate and Alhambra, and good luck referees!
My mistake, the word choice was poor. It was more of a lecture not an AC. It wasn't negative but it wasn't positive, it was informing. I know that...
This G9 was only 15. And at no point was i rude or negative to him about his skill level or his performance during the game. After the game, i...
Well it was a good season! Time to see how I can keep busy without any games to ref! Time to clean the golf clubs i guess!
Did a U11 boys rec game this weekend as the CR for the final season tournament at my local club. AR1 i knew and is good, although she now has a...
I see no problem with it. At that level, i usually say something closer to, "Come on blue!" or "Go ahead blue!" and signal for them to play. At...
I know how to tongue, (as i played the trumpet for a couple of years) but maybe i just need to start with a strong force of air right out of the...
They all heard it, it just sounded more 50% air and 50% whistle. Not 100% whistle!!
Reffed a U11 Boys game today with my new write-on cards and a brand spanking new FOX40 Classic. My ARs, both aren't very experienced and never ref...
I like the "beer on the beach" idea. Problem is at certain levels where almost every throw is bad, once you call it can't stop. But rules are...
This is exactly how I feel! Much better worded then a I could have!
I agree completely. IMO i think that, depending on the severity of the taunting, it could simply be a cautionable offense. If the kid wags his...
Good example. I always felt it was unnecessary to cautions a U9 or U10 player but I haven't had a situation where I felt it was necessary. Goo to...
I didn't even look at it like that. Still the idea of a caution won't even cross my mind.
Made a re-usable game card today! Laminated and everything, use Sharpie or Dry-Erase and take off with Goof-Off! Gotta love creativity!
IMO a 9 year old thanking an opponent for a poor pass wouldn't be considered taunting. I don't think they know what taunting is, much less taunt...
I thought so too! They were shoveling for quite a while...I would have been surprised if they played after that!
That has happened to me too! Thought it was a bit unorthodox but certainly legal! In some U-little games in my league the kids say the darnedest...
I know someone that got a yellow card in a game I was at for throwing the ball at an opponent back. It wasn't malicious at all! The opponent...
It was a slow week.:unsure:
True, true. I'm sure mine will wear out and by then there could possibly be change in style or manufacturer. I bought mine from OSI because that...
When i first read this thread, i thought he meant that he ran toward the line from too far back! Not that he was throwing from the wring place but...
I have never heard of this but it sounds like he was probably confused with some other law...I'd love to know if that's actually a LOTG or not....
That is a good point. I just bought my second jersey so I think that if OSI does change, I won't be in the hole to badly. Hopefully they don't...
