    1st one back at it.

    Well after a yr almost 2 away from the middle I had a game this morning U10's, one of my teams as I couldn't get a ref. Started the day with a quick chat to lads on both teams. Told mine I'm a ref only today. Then you get a comment from the autistic lad "you are the worst ref ever!" still...

    Video help for decision making fine tuning

    Hi guys, Just wondered if anyone knows of any videos etc to help tune decision making, ie from a refs perspective in real game situations etc. Sometimes the telly isn't the best viewing angle and I wasn't sure if higher up refs who do the camps come across anything? Thanks

    Positioning

    Now then chaps, I've watched various referees over the time I've not been Reffing in last 12 months and 1 thing that baffles me is positioning of referees. I get the diagnals and being as close as possible following this and that's in my mind when I reffed and will be when I'm back on it...

    Getting back into it

    HI folks. I completed my referees course in 2015 and did a handful of games during the 16/17 season. Whilst I have had good complements on my game management back then, I did have a double header last year just before Xmas. A Sat and Sunday game. Saturdays, was a nightmare, really feisty...

    Tolerance

    Hi folks, Just wanted to gather some opinion as to how much we like to make the game flow and pull up the game for certain things. Yesterday I had an u13s game seemed to be no real issues, a well contested game between Red and Greens, but just wonder if I let too much flow. One of the...

    AR Flags

    Hi folks, Just wondered if anyone can suggest some good AR Flags. I am not bothered about buzzer flags etc, and I have a cheap set of Sondico ones, but fancied a little xmas treat for a better quality set with a bag. More cloth than the cheaper looking Sondico ones if you know what I mean...

    Yesterday's Game

    Yesterday I took charge of a U13 game between two very physical teams. I was pre warned by the home manager the day before that saying the away manager was gobby and the players far too physical and gobby also. So this on board I decided to change my pre match chat the the teams, although I'm...
