If there is demonstrable measurable difference, these referees need to be disciplined.


WATCH OUT. HUNGRY TROLLS ABOUT. DON'T FEED THE TROLLS.

I've never seen this in my life and I've watched a lot of kids soccer games. What I have seen however - about every other post - is trolls trying to get a reaction on this board.

The Leagues and Clubs need to support their referees.


The best thing about being a Soccer Referee is that you control the game. Parent acting out. Game stops until they leave. If we want Youth Referees, this is critical.

Just one anecdote here, but this season I saw the first red card (in a house game) and the first yellow card (in a travel game) after 5 years of watching my kids play soccer.



You must have girls.

Anyone have the card tallies from last fall to compare to this fall?

I bet they are about the same.

These things tend to even out as the season goes on.

I have seen more aggression and disrespect between humans all around lately, including on and around the soccer fields. So my money is on more cards being warranted and referrees less inclined to tolerate it.

I think its the case of players being more aggressive and disrespectful. I've noticed kids younger and younger talking back to the referee and cursing at them. Less and less coaches have control over their teams.

We’re in CCL and have noticed way more yellow cards this year.
