Hi ,
This update will be sent via email on a monthly basis to provide the referee community with information about the U.S. Soccer Referee Program. In particular, U.S. Soccer's commitment to providing quality education resources for officials of all levels will be featured in these updates so be sure to take full advantage of the information and content being posted in the Referee Section of ussoccer.com.
This is GREAT stuff! Watch these videos!
And then go out and mirror what you see!
It is fun for us at RIOL to see some of
making comments on the videos
ASSISTANT REFEREE SIGNALS
Proper signaling is important for officials at all levels of the game. The specific signals used by assistant referees are more informational or advisory in nature so it's vital that these signals be performed clearly and accurately. Watch the video, Assistant Referee Signals, to learn more about U.S. Soccer's recommendations and guidelines on proper referee signaling. [Tom's editorial note, at around 7:02 when talking about the hand to hold the flag in to indicate a foul to the referee, it should be the reverse of what is stated. Left hand for offense committed by attacker, right hand for offense committed by defender.]
REFEREE SIGNALSBe honest...do you look this good out there?
ALL of us, including YOU, can be better at our mechanics. This is a great video showing you exactly what you should look like when communicating what your decisions are with your referee team, the players, the coaches, team administrators and even the spectators.
LOOK LIKE A REFEREE - take that to heart!
