History of the Game
Soccer is known as Football outside the USA
Earliest “organized” game was called
Harpastum,
played by the Romans.
It was very brutal.
But a heck of a
lot of fun !!
Assistant Referee Course - Lesson 1
History of the Game
The modern game dates from 1863 when the
Laws of the Game were established at a
London pub
Two factions split from one another.

Football Association) governs the

Assistant Referee Course - Lesson 1
Spirit of the Game
The Spirit of the Game can be
summarized in three simple words:
Fun
Fair
Safe
Assistant Referee Course - Lesson 1
Philosophy of Refereeing
The Laws of the Game are intended to provide
that games should be played with as little
interference as possible, and in this view it is
the duty of the referee to penalize only
deliberate breaches of the Law.
Constant whistling for trifling and doubtful
breaches produces bad feelings and loss of
temper on the part of the players and spoils the
pleasure of spectators.
Assistant Referee Course - Lesson 1
Philosophy of Refereeing
In the younger players’ games, the referee is
more of a friendly guide than policeman.
Young players that commit technical errors
(like taking a restart improperly) generally
should be given a second chance.
Young players should never be subjected to
public humiliation.

Checking for Learning
During the safety inspection of the players, the
referee notices that a player is wearing
earrings. She explains that she had her ears
pierced the previous day and if she removes
the earrings the holes will close.

The referee should explain to the player that
earrings are not permitted; if she wishes to play,
she must remove them. The referee may
choose to involve the coach.
Assistant Referee Course - Lesson 3
Checking for Learning
In a U-8 game, the ball offered by the home
team is a size 4 but otherwise acceptable.
What should the referee do?
Point out to the team that provided the ball
that it is the wrong size and ask for a size 3 ball.
If the team cannot provide one, ask the other
team for one. If no size 3 ball is available, play
the match with a size 4 ball.
Assistant Referee Course - Lesson 3
Checking for Learning
During the field inspection, the referee notices
that a goal is being held in place by two bricks
placed on the back of the structure.

sufficient to anchor it securely. The referee
should inform the coaches that the goals need to
be securely anchored before the match can start.
