    Keeper barging attacker with ball in hands

    I'm a bit conflicted between the pen and IDFK but its for sure a dead ball foul and YC.

    Ending a Conversation With a Manager

    Just he word with coach after its getting repetitive, if he doesn't catch it and keeps doing it, have another word but take your tone up a notch warning him of a yellow card if he has another outburst. I think the card should do it. Just don't let it slide. I think what coaches get wrong is that...

    Open Age Off the ball...

    I say penalty. Ball wasn't out of bounds and the whistle hasn't blown for a stoppage of play. It's still an offense for tripping another player. It had no intention of touching the ball. A foul is a foul.

    Pushed and sworn at by a player

    Glad you’re safe. Big misconduct when it came to shoving that player. Even more surprising was when he came at you. It was pretty obvious that he would get a red card with him on a yellow. County FA should act on it. Set him a fine or a match ban. No referee should be treated like that. Too many...

    what type of boots players allow to wear

    Well, for natural grass. Player safety when it comes to grassroots. AG allows but natural grass is a no for metal.

    Junior/Youth U6 Youth Rec Game Fighting Incident

    This definatly was a U6 match. They weren't throwing punches or anything, but they were pulling on the ball and scufling for it. Should I request help from the coaches from the teams if a situation occurs like this?

    Fouled Off The Pitch

    So, in my assosiation, there is a procedure where, if there is a physio (the only physio in the area) that is sent off, the game must be terminated considering the case of an injury if one gets injured in the match. It's mainly regarding the safety of the players but also penalizing the physio...

    Fouled Off The Pitch

    Now, if the physio is red carded, then you need to terminate the game.

    Junior/Youth U6 Youth Rec Game Fighting Incident

    I was watching a game of my little brother's. Reds vs Greens. Red player kicked ball out, grabs ball and a green fights him for the ball. They both fall down and other teamates try to take the ball. The referee tries to seperate the players and give the ball to the greens who were supposed to...

    Yellow and red cards are penalty cards. I'm just displaying some of the common changes for the younger player games.

    subs

    We follow same procedure in my area of Texas. In youth matches its a little disorganized for subs so every time when a coach is requesting a sub, he will shout "ref, sub!" and ref will blow whistle at the next stoppage to signal a pause for subs. Also, if you are a AR, hold up both of your...

    Trust your instinct.

    I had multiple games where the head ref would call IDFK for that kind of offense-GK handling outside PA is quite common in my games. Guess they were all wrong. I think the actions referees make have a impact on other referees when they referee other games bc those referees fix their mind to...

    when a goal keeper can score

    Its the English equivalent of a rugby ball. I still prefer punt over fly kick-sounds more like a volley while jumping than a punt itself. I'll stick to my American dictionary.
