Law 11 - Offside 8/30/2016

Barry Stewart of Chilliwack, BC Canada asks...

I suspect the Colorado high school front flip goal is making its rounds. Such an amazing play!

Our local news station reported that it had been called back for offside but I have problems with that. Of course, the newscasters could have had ...

Law 11 - Offside 7/6/2016

Scott of Honolulu, Hawaii USA asks...

I am a new referee and learning. While AR for a non-competitive high school summer league, I had an interesting situation. While attacking, the two strikers are in the offside position at the time of the shot, closing in towards the GK, but not in th...

League Specific 6/5/2016

sam of new york, ny usa asks...

This isn't really a question but more of an observation. It appears to me when I watch high level soccer like Premier League, Copa America, World Cup, etc, that it may actually be easier to referee professional games than of adult amateur, college, o...

Mechanics 5/13/2016

Kristen of Knoxville, TN United States asks...

I was recently the AR1 during a high school game, in which I had stepped on the field twice. The first time was to set the ball for a foul right in front of me, as I was taught by several senior referees and assessors, because the CR and AR are not t...

Law 11 - Offside 5/2/2016

Law 5 - The Referee 4/29/2016

Scott of ALTON, VA USA asks...

In various programs, I've noticed inconsistency in the number of officials managing the game. In rec AYSO, club / travel, middle school and high school, I've seen one referee only covering the entire field, two refs splitting the field and sharing du...

Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 4/22/2016

Phil of Tarzana, CA United States asks...

Does this mean that the high school rule is different than FIFA? Under the LOTG, an opponent can't challenge from behind, even if the ball is in playing distance of both players...although this seems to be ignored in professional soccer....

Law 1- The Field 4/17/2016

Stephane of Belleville , Ontario Canada asks...

Our school as a very small field. Not even required dimensions. With a ditch on both sides. Since the ditch is too close the school lined the field with the following measurement. Long 89yds wide 42 yds. Goal area 5yds and penalty area 12yds for a...

Law 16 - Goal Kick 3/9/2016

Barry Stewart of Chilliwack, BC Canada asks...

I was watching a young woman ref a girls' high school game, recently. She was doing a confident and competent job, though I wondered about one thing:

At each goal kick, she would treat it as an indirect free kick, holding her hand up until t...

Law 16 - Goal Kick 2/29/2016

Julie Nourayi of rancho palos verdes, CA United States asks...

Situation: On a goal kick restart, a defender positions herself to the side of the PA and the ball is then kicked laterally to her. An attacker enters the PA (while the ball is still rolling through the PA, before being in play) and cuts through diag...
