[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the "biggest" assignors sent out an email last week reminding all referees to wear the proper uniform.  I was thinking....is this the biggest complaint you are getting? If so, that's great, but I doubt that's the biggest complaint.  How about telling all the referees that you assign games to to be on time, cover the field better to make better calls (if that means get in better shape, then get in better shape), know the rules of competition for the games you are reffing, brush up on the Laws of the game, .... I was just like....wear the proper uniform??? That's it? I thought she could do better than that. Assignors need to get out to fields or send someone out to fields to check on refs and make sure they are doing a good job and give some feedback. I was doing a U10 girls rec game a few weeks ago and the assignor for that club had a mentor at the games giving advice to all the referees but yet, I've never seen a "mentor" at a"travel" game yet.

It's symbiotic....better reffing will [b]help[/b] shut parents and coaches up.  Parents and coaches shutting up will help get refs onto the field.  There are always emails going out looking for referees.  I asked some of my kid's teammates why they don't ref and it's always because they don't want to listen to the parents.[/quote]

How about you and everyone else that complains about the referees to go get your license?   See how it easy it is to ref a game. [/quote]

No one said it was easy.  The easy part is actually knowing the rules, blowing the whistle and running the field.  Though, when refs don't do these things, they take a tough job and make it worse.[/quote]
