    RKC v PEC offside from corner

    Ref really needs to go over that agian in his mind. He should've known that. Probably didn't consider that in his own rulebook.

    Goalkeeper picking ball up twice in youth games.

    But we do use penalise for punishments. Like a penalty for a team refusing to pay referees (just a general example). But I guess in soccer if just radomly say "penalty!", everyone will assume you are talking about a pen kick.

    Shaming Refs & Financial incentive to Ref (in addition to match fees)

    Could be 🤷‍♂️. If they are really devoted to keeping ref numbers up. But I think its unlikely in my opinion. I don't see how it could deflate the refs confidence. It might just give them a sense of importance or urgency.

    JPL quarter restarts

    From my experience as a player, the 2nd and 4rth quarters start with the restart of the previous play. 1st and 3rd quarters starts with kickoff.

    Shaming Refs & Financial incentive to Ref (in addition to match fees)

    OK. Probably just promoting their own cause. But in US refereeing is not very popular because of all the abuse that comes with it. Whether its baseball, football, soccer there is always that screeming from parents and coaches in the US. I guess in the UK the refs don't mind. But in US the...

    Goalkeeper picking ball up twice in youth games.

    A penalty is a punishment on a team from a offense (foul). A penalty kick though, is a kick taken on the penalty spot with one on one keeper vs kicker. No players other than the kicker and goalie are allowed in the penalty area and arc. It is used to punish an offense from the defending team in...

    Frozen pitches

    Under 60 degress for US in youth soccer. Don't know about y'all's in UK but it should be similar. We also suspend icy matches with snow and ice. Check with local FA or the rules on the FA's site or the IFAB Laws of the Game. You should be able to find what you are looking for there.

    Goalkeeper picking ball up twice in youth games.

    I am thinking of penalising the incident with a little word with keep. Just giving a learning experience with a penalty (not a pen kick).

    Goal after GK handling outside PA.

    For the not on purpose its for unatraully bigger positions with hand balls. In this case I assumed the GK arms were wide.

    Goal after GK handling outside PA.

    Well I was asuming that the GK was spreading out his arms on purpose because it right outside pen area. Keep probably kept hands raised as i seen in many incidents similar. The topic above didn't say anything about the arms posture. It would've been DOGSO if goal not scored, but GK still commits...

    Yellow card and physio coming on

    I said IF it is a bad injury OR an injury that would take a long time like 7-14 minutes. And there was no advantage so play is stopped. And I show a yellow. Capese?
