Referees

Referee Pre-Season Meeting Tuesday, Sept 7th

 

There will be a pre-season referee local rules and  assignment meeting this coming Tuesday, September 7th, at McLean High School beginning at 7 PM in the Lecture Hall (Room 187). the room is not the cafeteria but is in the main hallway between the two gyms.
This meeting is mandatory for all new referees and returning referees should come to get some initial assignments and refresher on the SFL and ODSL rules for the fall 2010. Bring your games assignment (if you know them ) to avoid conflicts.

MYS Referee Program

McLean Soccer employs certified referees for all age groups based on availability. If no referee is present 10 minutes before the game the coach should call the assignor, Amr Alien at 202-550-6732, and ask if a referee will be provided.

If no referees are available the coaches are asked to referee as objectively as possible and report the shortage to the assignor, Amr Alian (amrelian@yahoo.com) , when the game is complete.

Where certified assistant referees are not available, McLean Soccer uses club, or volunteer assistant referees who have responsibility for noting only in and out of touch and direction.

For some of our Travel Leagues, due to the shortage of certified referees, parent volunteers must also become certified referees called Step In Assistant Referees (STAR). In many cases, as many as two parents per team are required.

MYS Referees Assignment Program "Arbiter"

 

As you may already know, The Arbiter was purchased by the NCAA. As a result, the website has a new name, http://arbitersports.com/, and a new look. Otherwise it will be essentially the same from your perspective.
Please sign in, bookmark the new site, delete your bookmark for the old site, and look it over.  Let me know if I should take you off my list.
