SSF Game Leader or Instructing Referee What’s the difference? Game Leaders look after the Under 6 & 7 Instructing Referees look after the Under 8-11 The roles of SSF Game Leaders and Instructing Referees differ slighty

Your role as a SSF Game Leader The most important thing is to – KEEP THE GAME MOVING!! Try to limit stoppages in play. Help players with the restart of play to ensure the game is moving freely. Ensure the opposing team is back to the halfway line for all goal line restarts. Facilitate an environment where all the kids will have FUN !!!

Your role as a SSF Instructing Referee The main role of the instructing referee is to control the game and make sure it runs freely. SSF Instructing Referees aim to instruct and correct the players on how to behave and what the rules are. The referee may instruct the players without stopping the game. Discourage players from permanently standing in blatant offside positions. Facilitate an environment where the kids will have FUN !!!

Under 6 & 7 Rules Try to limit giving free kicks. Most acts of handball or fouls at this level are caused by a lack of coordination, with no intent. Only award a free kick if you believe that the player committed a serious act of handball, foul or misconduct and explain to the child that this is not the right way to behave and to not do it again.

Whistles & Watches You will be issued with a whistle at the start of the season. It is your responsibility to bring it each week to the games. But if you happen to forget we have spares in the control room. You can bring your own watch or there will be some stopwatches available in the control room to borrow. MAKE SURE THEY GET PUT BACK!

Question Time
36
And finally.. It is not unusual for referees, young and old, to feel nervous when they go onto the field. One of the best ways to reduce the nerves and build your confidence is to read and understand all the rules. And when you know them all, read them again! Remember – to play a game we must have a referee – you are very IMPORTANT!
37
And finally.. Please remember. We are only human and we all make mistakes. If you realise you have made a mistake during the game and ball is not in play yet you can change your decision. Referees at all levels are allowed to do this. If you have any questions or problems during the season come and see me at halftime or during a game. If I can’t give you an answer straight away I will find out and get back to you. At anytime throughout the year please don’t hesitate to contact me regarding any refereeing issue you may have.
