[quote=Anonymous][quote=SoccerRef][quote=Anonymous][quote=SoccerRef][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So this is the problem....No one knows who to tell and when to tell them. So we are back where we started. So parents of young refs, please prepare you kid for the possible abuse he/she may receive and go and watch so nothing gets too out of hand. Be ready to intervene. Good luck everyone! Maybe get certified and you can ref with them.[/quote]

Maryland abuse form:

DC/VA abuse form:

Email assignor as well.[/quote]

Forgot to log in before posting that, and then couldn't edit. 
Wanted to add that the MD form is a little bare-bones, but they'll get back to you to follow up. Never tried to report anything in VA/DC, so I can't tell you how well that works. [/quote]This is great.

Thank you for this. You would think that a link to these forms would be provided during every field certification class and every recertification and, also, you would think that each assignor would send them out before each season. I've never seen or heard of these. Thanks again. [/quote]

I'm certified through MD, and the State Ref organization sends this info out multiple times a year.
Just checking though my emails, and I see multiple assignors sent the info out as well. But yes, it should be all of them.

Here's what was said, along with the reporting link:

*Do NOT engage spectators!
*Treat what spectators say or do AS IF the Head Coach did or said (do NOT engage spectators!)
*Apply appropriate misconduct (warning, caution-yellow, or send off-red) directly to Head Coach per LAW 12 (do NOT engage spectators!) 
 
Please continue to report all Referee abuse in your match report(s), to your Assignor(s), and/or on the app HERE.  We are here to support you!  We immediately act on Referee abuse when we're made aware.  Coaches and Clubs have been suspended and expelled for their and their spectator's behavior.  [/quote]

Yeah, I'm in VA and have been reffing about 6 years and have never seen this or even heard it mentioned. [/quote]
