General Principles:
 Diagonal System – Ball always between the 2 Referees
 Keep play between Referees
 Referees – look at each other – Constant Communication!
 Overlap (when possible) on FK, corners
 Two signals for every “call” – Both Referees
 “Mirror” the other Referee!
 Count 4 seconds – your half, hand signal with/without voice
 Both Referees – arm ALWAYS up for Indirect Free Kick
 On goal / foul / caution / dismissal
 Report to TimeKeeper, clear voice and hand signals

Referee Game Management
Referee Game Management
During the Game :
 Use man-management skills to control game “temperature”
 Use Yellow / Red cards when appropriate
 Watch for “Off Ball” incidents
 Deal with these swiftly and decisively – will impact game control
 If a serious incident develops, do not interfere
 Take notes, record player numbers
 A calm and courteous attitude will help diffuse a “HOT” situation
Referee Game Management
During the Game :
 Never lose your temper! Always stay calm.
 Your “temperature” will have an effect on players
 Never get in arguments with players, team officials or
spectators.
 Never threaten anyone (with cards, suspensions or what
might happen to them)
 Never touch, bump or physically threaten anyone especially players.
 Use positive suggestions to control “hot” behavior
 e.g. “You are a good player, #15, your team needs you on the pitch!”
 Body language can offend!
 Don’t let your actions or attitude inflame the situation
Referee Game Management
During the Game :
 Show respect to players, team officials, spectators
 This is the best way to encourage them to show you respect
 Be patient and even-tempered while making decisions
 Do not try to “Ram” your authority into people’s faces
 Be diplomatic – there is often a way to convince someone to
comply with your decision while “saving face”
 Be firm – do not allow anyone to talk you out of your
decision
Referee Game Management
Youth Futsal
During Youth Futsal Games :
 Your job is also to educate the young players
 Often their parents and coaches too!
 Explain your calls when it seems appropriate
 Explain what behavior is allowed, and what is not allowed
Referee Game Management
If a player is injured during the Game :
 Stop play immediately, and stop time.
 Decide if the injury is serious
 Do not touch the injured player or allow anyone, other than
the coach or trainer to touch him. There may be serious
injury that could be made worse if he is moved, and if this
happens, you could be held liable.
 Signal for the coach or trainer to come aid the player
 Use common sense – e.g. if a coach is already running onto the
pitch, signal him in as if he were still on the sideline.
 Remember that a player who is bleeding must leave the field
of play and cannot return until you are satisfied that the
bleeding has stopped and the wound has been covered.
Referee Game Management
If a player is injured during the Game :
 If it is necessary to call an ambulance, make sure that the
injured player is kept warm and as comfortable as possible
until professional help arrives.
 Don’t worry about the game being delayed. The player’s
safety is your first concern.
 Restart the game time when you restart the game.
Referee Game Management
Problems that might arise during the Game :
 Appeals against a referee’s decisions
 Abuse directed towards a referee
 Telling a referee such pearls of wisdom as :
 “Open your eyes, Ref, you’re missing a great game!”
 “There are two teams on the field, Ref!”
Referee Game Management
Problems that might arise during the Game :
 Constant appeals for decisions by the referee in favour of
his team
 Yelling at Referees
 Yelling abuse at opposing players
 Constantly questioning a Referee’s decisions
 Coach instructing his player to attack or injure opponents
 Deal with this swiftly and decisively – eject the coach while clearly
explaining that this is not acceptable!
Referee Game Management
Problems that might arise during the Game :
 Coach moving up and down the touch line (outside the
technical area) yelling instructions to his players.
 Coach impeding a Referee by standing on the touch line and
preventing him from seeing the play
 Coach impeding a Referee by standing on the touch line and
preventing him from moving along the touch line.
Referee Game Management
Problems that might arise during the Game :
 Coach allowing a substitute onto the pitch before the player
being replaced has left the pitch.
 Coach allowing or encouraging other team officials and/or
substitutes on the team bench to heckle or abuse the Referee
 Coach loses his temper – demonstrates this by word or
action that brings the game into disrepute.
 When a coach or Assistant Coach is warned or asked to
leave the game by the Referee, defies the authority and may
cause the game to be abandoned.
Referee Game Management
Problems that might arise during the Game :
 Coach allowing other people than those listed on the team
sheet to sit on the bench or be in the bench area (technical
area).
 Coach fails to understand the International Board’s directive
on coaches and those on team benches, i.e., “The coach and
other occupants of the technical area must at all times,
conduct themselves in a responsible manner.”
