[quote=Anonymous]I had the pleasure of watching a ton of games over the weekend driving all over the DC area. Most of the teams played clean and the level of soccer overall was very good. I did notice that the refs were average at best with lots of bad calls, not the 50/50 variety. They were basic rules that soccer 101 should have covered. Goalies can't pick up the ball if it's passed back by their own team! Unintentional headers is a drop ball. You can get physical, but cant' extend the arms. Build up line for u9/u10 was not followed all the time. It was either way too sensitive of calls or not calling things at all. These tournament organizers should not host if they can't staff with well trained refs, teams are paying >$500, let them get some fair calls on both sides. Good news, no parent blow ups except 1 where the cops were called. Overall I enjoyed watching 4 of my grandkids play this weekend![/quote]
