Fair point, I'll adapt that part. Over time, I'm sure it will change, but I needed a starting point as I stumbled through pre-match on the few occasions when I had NAR.

Maybe it wasn't that long, just felt like.

Reflecting on a recent sending off for serious foul play in 35th minute. During an attacking play, a long ball was played over the top. The forward chased the ball but was unlikely to reach it before the keeper. Nonetheless, the forward continued to pursue the ball, going to ground while the...

After 4 oberservatuons I am sitting on 72.32 going for level 4 we are told the FA are looking for 71 or above so hopefully I will get over the line?

I’m well on my way to achieving Level 4. I’ve completed the Laws of the Game (LOTG) twice, attended the promotion seminar, and had three observations with an average score of 72.44. Just one more observation to go!

I expect to be relocating in the summer to a new county FA, currently Level 5 but expect to be promoted to level 4 by the end of the season. Can I go straight in as a level 4 at new county / Location?
