[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Below is the Law that the referee is responsible for applying. Otherwise, it is on the coaches to police. Also, please note that some leagues such as NCSL do not allow "noisemakers" such as drums, mariachi bands, etc. : ) Referees can enforce that.

[b]Celebration of a goal[/b]
Players can celebrate when a goal is scored, but the celebration must not be excessive; choreographed celebrations are not encouraged and must not cause excessive time-wasting.

Leaving the field of play to celebrate a goal is not a cautionable offence but players should return as soon as possible.

A player must be cautioned, even if the goal is disallowed, for:
-climbing onto a perimeter fence and/or approaching the spectators in a manner which causes safety and/or security issues
-acting in a provocative, derisory or inflammatory way
-covering the head or face with a mask or other similar item
-removing the shirt or covering the head with the shirt[/quote]

VSA loves the choreographed celebrations, which are super tacky when the kids are 5th/6th grade. :roll:[/quote]
