Ben, speak to your teacher who will be assessing you. Some users on the forum will insist full laws apply, which I agree with to a point. However, remember that the students, parents and teachers are not expecting you to caution everything which would be a caution in an open age game. Talk to...

Ben, as far as I know there isn't. If you contact either Andy or Adrian at the office, they'll provide you with the relevant details. If you have a 'Capital Referee' to hand, the contact details are all on the back page.

As far as I am aware, there are not currently any fitness requirements for you to pass the course. However, if you wish to seek promotion to level 4 (in the future), your fitness will be assessed as part of this process. Don't let this deter you though! The fitter you are, the easier...

I've had that same problem. I got bored of trying, submitted the reports and downloaded the PDF, which fortunately had the text within it. If this doesn't happen, just give your RDO a ring and they'll probably ask you to email the report to them.

As far as I am aware, 73 is the cut-off and it is strictly enforced. With the high number of competition for a small number of places this year, I presume it'll be strictly enforced. Potentially it could become a problem if they allow you through with 72.8, why shouldn't they allow someone with...

Hi Andrew, firstly, welcome. Secondly, if you are going to be 'running the line' to more experienced officials, generally they will be the ones who will provide the flags. However, it doesn't hurt to carry a set of your own incase they forget theirs. If it is mainly going to be yourself and...

Because Kevin Friend has seen it and taken action. If he hadn't seen it, the FA would take a look at it and ask for his opinion if he had seen it.

I personally think it is a positive. Firstly, you may have an assessor come and watch you 5 times a season, providing you with a mark on 5 occasions. If you officiate 50 matches a season, only 10% of your games have been marked - you may have had an outstanding game or contrastingly a shocking...

All in the competition rules. Generally if you haven't arrived at the ground and it is called off, you won't be paid at all. If you have arrived then you may be paid expenses or an 'inspection fee'.

Hi, It sounds like you are describing this made by Spintso: http://www.spintso.se/en/pda/pda__1583 Personally I wouldn't buy one. To me, in the clips provided by Spintso of the device in use during the game, it just looks like the referee is on his phone halfway through the game!

Generally you won't find out. If you contact your county FA, they may tell you, but equally, they may not. I don't think we have any entitlement to find out the outcome of a misconduct report or whatever else.

After the incredibly helpful comment from Padfoot, I'm not sure if there is too much more I can really add. :hmmm: Remember that dissent is basically anything which disagrees with a decision you have made. However, do take into account how the comments are said and whether any expletives have...

Jack, try to use journal searches to find scientific research. Something like Google Scholar, or PubMed. Some you will have to pay for - but there will be a number of good quality journals which are also free. It will allow you to read into the topic a little more and draw your own conclusions...

I remember reading/hearing somewhere that they originally did start on the opposition side to the assistant. However, the referees requested them to be moved to the other side due to the position affecting their diagonal run when they got close to the penalty area.

Some counties will allow it. However, generally they want you to sign up for it at the start of the promotion year. I've no idea which counties allow it, so it may be worth giving your RDO a call to see if your county offers it - if it would be something you'd be interested in. However, your...

Put the time that the match was set to kick off. That will be how it would have been registered everywhere else.

Watch the elbows of the player behind. If the player from behind maintains bent elbows throughout the challenge, there isn't any pushing from his side - the player in front may simply be 'backing in' to the player behind him. However, if the arms extend and the elbows lock, then there has been a...

If you've been nominated for FA Competitions by your County FA, then you are given access to it for the season.

Graeme, Has worked this time, thanks!
