not that it helps......
One of the things that we have done in our League (WCOTSL) is to request feedback from the managers about the refs they have had. This feedback gets passed back to the ref scheduler, who (hopefully) uses it to help in future assignments. We rate them on topics like consistency, fitness, positioning, and game flow. Feedback is not mandatory, but it is strongly encouraged.
A couple of points didn't get answered here:
1) No, there aren't enough qualified officials out there for all of us to have linesmen at our games. Would you also be willing to pay for the extra officials? A lot of teams griped when we decided to go with the referees' request for $50 per game....
2) More players should learn what the rules of the game really are, as well as the meaning of the word "interpretation" (as in "interpretation of the rules"). This applies to some of the refs we have had in the past, as well (we had a ref last year who called our keeper for "too many steps..."
). It wouldn't hurt if some of the more vociferous critics out there were forced to ref a couple of games themselves. Who knows...it might even produce some new refs
beerz,
stew

Re: Referee improvements/feedback?
how is it determined who refs which games?
i have missed a couple games this year, but i have not seen kevin or martin yet? martin is the only ref who has ever given me cards in the fvsl premier. and i feel naked without one .
seen quite a bit of mike hill, though. as i have said earlier... he never loses control of a game. the first bit of chirping or ugliness and the whole park knows it will not be tolerated. usually smooth sailing from that point forward. unfortunately, though... we always tie when he is in the middle.

PNE....notice it went quiet on here as soon as I retired!!
PNE said:It's been a long time since anyone posted on here. Do I take it that the referees have improved & there is nothing to discuss ?

Re: Referee improvements/feedback?
Skippy,
More of a word usage error it appears, than a spelling error.
Worse: of inferior quality.
Worst: most horrible.
So it appears that you, my dear teacher of young minds, have erred in pointing out my "spelling" error.
Regs: because I'm a visionary.

Re: Referee improvements/feedback?
Thanks for directing us back to this rubbish, TheRob.
Question for all y'all...
What happens if I criticize a ref on this shite...erm, site...and the guy comes completely unglued to the point that I'm fearful of waking up with a horse's head next to me?
BTW: PNE gave me a red last year for blatantly kicking some kid, and I'd like to thank him for the opportunity to hit the cooler earlier than first expected.

Because, you know, it wasn't already evident in your taking credit for your wonderful match. Good to see you saved the shite for the 2nd div.
Jesus...one would think getting paid would help take the sting away from being bitched at a little on the field, and taking a little stick on TTP. Guess not.
Kleenex?

Re: Referee improvements/feedback?
Who's the best Ref? I remember back when I was playing U19 Gold, Playing for Dan Jacksons Surrey youth Celtic. We had a darby match against Jim Carrigans Surrey youth Rangers. Inter club rivals and lots of bad blood. We were ready to go and we had no Ref. Both teams agreed to play the match with an off duty, but registered ref by the name of Colin Eccles(SP). Colin was only a year or so older than most the players on the field.
The game started with a couple of quick yellows for late tackles and one for dissent, but once he had control of the match he let us play. It was a great game ending in a 2-2 draw.
Colin has since passed away, but I will always remember that game, and the job he did.
It seems all to often that some Refs in the valley are just out for a run without any care of the game or players. I know guys get upset and start yelling but the ref needs to stay in control of the game and of their own emotions. As a player I need to know the ref is going to protect me agianst dangerous challenges, be sound positionally and control the game. That is alot to ask some days, but that is the job.
