Super thanks for being a JUSA referee this weekend. JUSA really appreciates it, and without you, 2000 children could not play soccer.
With that being said, we are being paid well to be responsible, understand and apply the laws and keep the kids safe.
Just a few reminders:
1) if anyone asks for a hydration break, make sure you have one. Afternoon games might be warm.
2) Each team pays half, collect from each coach/team manager.
3) Have a good pregame with each coach: confirm length of game, substitutions, sideline behavior and “I may have a different angle than what you see”
4) JUSA teams have player cards. Check them.
5) Be professional. Wear the full referee kit.
6) if you have a CSL game, accept the game in the app. Centers are responsible for reporting the match in the CSL app.
7) Thank the coaches for coaching. They work hard and volunteer a lot of hours.
