REFEREE INFORMATION
Newfield Soccer Club utilizies our U-11 travel players and our parents to provide referring services for our Intramural games. It is through their efforts that we are able to provide a more controlled environment for our children to enjoy the game of soccer. We welcome the opportunity to add new referees to our organization prior to the Fall and Spring seasons of every year. New referees will be required to participate in our training program for at least 1-year. This training program consists of an initial training course and hands-on-training by officiating matches under the supervision of one of our seasoned referees. At the end of that training period, trainees will be promoted to full referee status and begin to officiate matches in our Midgets & Munchkins Division on their own. This program provides our children a great opportunity to earn some money and begin to learn the importance of responsibility. For more information, please feel free to contact us through the club's email. Sunday, September 28 Referee Advisor
We are establishing a new program in our club to help find, train, develop and support referees. I am taking the material right out the American Youth Soccer Organization. Below is a list of seven characteristics that the ultimate Advisor may possess. Some interested parties may only want to participate and attain only one or few of these characteristics. Training of varying lengths of time will be provided to interested individuals to attain and perform in any of these characteristics.
· As Friend, the advisor must be persuasive in his or her comments to the officials. The official must trust the motives as well as the judgment of the advisor and believe that the advisor gives freely of time and effort.
· As Observer, the advisor must provide sound, simple advice and assistance that leads the trainee on the shortest path to success. The official must believe in the sincerity and credibility of the assistance given. · As Supporter, the advisor offers encouragement in unlimited supply. In this view, the official can do no wrong, but can always be encourages to do better. This is unconditional support for the person, not for everything the person does. · As Advocate, the advisor is obligated to take the part of the official in all encounters. No criticism or dissent can go unchecked; no party can challenge without the proactive, positive involvement of the advisor. · As Choreographer, the advisor helps the new and developing official to stage the officiating process. From the opening (arrival and inspection of the field) to closing (post game ceremony and bookkeeping), the advisor helps the official to move with purpose and direction from one part of the process to the next. The advisor also encourages and assists the official in moving through up-grades in certification to the highest level desired by the official. · As Mentor, the advisor provides accurate, factual information that gives the official additional insight and understanding. · As Coach, the advisor offers tactical instructions that help the official to operate at the top of their game, and provides the official with practical suggestions to improve performance. · As Role Model, the advisor gives the developing official a real person to emulate. The advisor’s attitudes, values, and behaviors set the example that the official is likely to follow on the field. Please contact jcruz@jdcsystems.net, if you are interested. I will then set up a short kickoff meeting with the interested parties. Subsequent training sessions will then be set up. Wednesday, October 1 Newfield Soccer Club Zero Tolerance Policy The Newfield Soccer Club (NSC) has adopted a Zero Tolerance Policy for all NSC age groups and teams. Coaches, players, parents and all members of the NSC community are expected to uphold this policy and respect the players and referees regardless of their age and/or experience. Zero tolerance violations will be taken very seriously by the NSC and will result in warnings, suspensions, or removal from the club whenever deemed warranted by The NSC Executive Board. Coaches, please read the Zero Tolerance Policy and review with all players and parents at the start of each season and whenever else it seems needed. Parents, please read the policy and review this policy with your children. Many referees are young and just starting their careers as soccer referees.
