Question Number: 30308Law 5 - The Referee 4/17/2016RE: Competitive Under 13 Mike Nelson of River Heights, Utah USA asks...What happens if my player passes the ball and then the ball hits the ref and then the ball goes out of bounds? Answer provided by Referee Joe McHugh Hi Mike
The referee is just part of the field of play. As the ball was last played by your player the restart is a throw in, goal kick or a corner kick to your opponents.
Referees do their best not to get struck by the ball yet it does happen.

teach your player to make better passes lol As Ref McHugh states we do not try to get in the way but it will occur on occasion as we are a moving field condition, the restart becomes a throw in or goal kick or corner kick to your opposition.
from our pitch to your pitch in the spirit of fairplay

Take the referee out of the equation - the referee is like a goal post.
So, it's a throw on (or Goal kick/corner kick as appropriate) to the opponents.
