I feel I’ve learnt a lot...

    Worst game so far!

    Hello everyone, just an instant reflection on a game I had today, 20 games in and by far worst with comments from coaches and players, I knew I was having a bad game but battled through. One player suggestion of being paid, what punishment would others offer for this? Very much felt like 22...

    Football betting

    Hello all, Interesting one that I’ve not thought about before, am I correct in thinking you can bet on football if you are level 7,6,5 referee as long as it’s not on a league/competition you are involved in, doubt most bookies cover Sunday league anyway! It’s not something that gets mentioned on...

    Kicking ball away

    Hello everyone! What is everyone’s view on players kicking the ball away, do you go for straight yellow or a warning first! I have one today for a player doing it for a second time, although thinking back I could’ve nipped it in the bud with an instant one straight away, obviously easy to look...

    Yellow card codes

    Hello everyone! My lucky day today and gave out my first yellow cards, they really do come like London buses! Both for reckless challenges, would this go through as a C1 and then reckless play? Or foul tackle? thank you

    Swearing at another player

    Hello, 6 games in and enjoying it, learning new stuff every week! Game yesterday one of the players (U14s) said to me that one of the other players swore at him. I didn’t think there was much I could do even if I did hear it, what does everyone else do in this situation? Have a word with the...

    Scorecards

    Out of curiosity how does everyone complete their scorecards? I have my first league game on Sunday, and it’s not something mentioned in the course. Do you fill it out beforehand with all the names or leave it blank and just write down any players that are cautioned or scored? Understand it’s...

    First game done

    First game done u11s friendly match, few little tackles here and there but nothing major! Forgot to start the watch at the start haha but was quickly rectified!

    Officially signed up to a league for the first time, did my course about 3 months ago so need to dust the cobwebs off!

    Just completed course

    Hello, I have just completed my course and now have to do my 5 games. Do you recommend doing these 5 in the youth leagues to get experience or go straight into adult Sunday league? Would be interested to hear what others have done or recommend. Thank you!
