Question Number: 28074Law 6 - Assistant Referee 12/21/2013RE: rec Other kaya of basseterre, st. kitts and nevis asks...The assistant referee has the authority to;
Send a team official who abuses you away from the Technical Area?
Ensure that no unauthorised person enters the field of play?
Act as timekeeper?
Check a substitutes equipment?
Indicate to the Referee when a player may be penalised for being offside?
Indicate to the Referee when a team wishes to make a substitution?
Enter the field of play to help control the 9.15m restart distance? Answer provided by Referee Dennis Wickham Kaya: some of these are powers/duties of the referees and some are powers/duties of the assistant referee. The easiest way to differentiate them is to think about the title - ASSISTANT - which ones are providing assistance to the referee?
The full list of powers and duties of an assistant referee are in law 6.
