In the case we do not have enough referees for the Fall Season:
1: Every team U10 and above should provide one or more referee to help throughout the season in order to qualify for the play-offs. The referees are supposed to earn 3 points for the team they represent: 1 point per Center Referee per game that is not their child's game at U10 or above. Half a point (0.5) to assist referee a game that is not their child's game at U10 or above. A quarter of a point (0.25) if you assist referee a U10 or above that is your child's game.
2: We have always taken pride that we protect the Youth and Adult referees. We had some incidents in the past where Coaches and or spectators have berated or directed some unkind words at the referees during or after the games. This is something that has never been tolerated in AYSO and certainly not here in Tierrasanta. We are going to make it clear to all coaches that their behavior and that of the parents and spectators is their responsibility. If they cannot control the unsporting behavior then any referee has the right end the game and to walk away. It will be reported to the Regional Referee Administrator or to any board member.
