back to basics- referees
DESCRIPTION
This presentation is to form part of the Refresher or Winter Training programmes for ALL referees throughout Canada. It brings us BACK to BASICS, establishes a starting position from which all referees are expected to operate and a platform for development. It will provide assessors with the ability to measure performance, identify strengths and training needs for education and development to grow for the support of referees at whatever level they operate. It is based upon the recommendations and Guidance issued by FIFA and as such the CSA expects that its officials will work within these guidelines rather than operate unilaterally.TRANSCRIPT

• As a general rule, no obvious hand signals must be given by A. R.
• In some situations, a discreet hand signal may give valuable support to the referee.− I.E. On very tight decisions, when the ball stays in play
(throw-in).
Gestures
![Page 42: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
− As a general rule, face the field of play
− Side-to-side movement especially to judge offside (better line of vision).
− Running forwards when sprinting.
− Be in a “ready position” before sprinting.
Running Technique
![Page 43: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Flag technique
• Flag held down, always visible to referee and unfurled.
• Flag still while running.
• When signalling, flag is like an extension of the arm.
![Page 44: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Flag Technique
• Before signalling:− Stop − Ensure you are facing the field of play − Raise the flag with the appropriate hand
(fouls and throw-in). If necessary, change hands BEFORE raising the flag
− Make eye contact with the referee
![Page 45: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
AR
R
NEAR A. R. POSITION
− Clear situations• Directly show direction
• Priority for A.R.
− If any doubt:• Raise the flag
• Make eye contact
• Referee signals direction
Whenever an A.R. signals the ball is out of the play, he must retain the signal until acknowledged by the referee
Flag Technique – Throw-in
![Page 46: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
AR
R
FAR FROM A. R. POSITION
− Other situations• Raise the flag
• Make eye contact
• Priority for referee if A.R. not sure
− Very clear situations• A.R. can directly show
direction along the touchline
Flag Technique – Throw-in
![Page 47: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
THE GOAL KICK & THE CORNER KICK
Flag technique
• Flag with the right hand for goal kick (better line of vision) and corner kick. • For tight decisions when the ball is out of play, raise the flag first.
![Page 48: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

![Page 49: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Flag Technique – Offside
• If an A.R. is not totally sure about an offside offence, the flag should not be raised (FIFA recommendation).
• The flag is to be raised with the right hand (better line of vision), change to be made BEFORE the flag is raised
• If the flag is not seen immediately by the referee, the A.R. must keep signalling until it has been recognised or the ball is clearly in control of the defending team.
![Page 50: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Flag Technique – Substitution
• A.R. is informed by 4th official• Flag signal in the next stoppage
in the match• A.R. does not need to move to
the halfway line, unless instructed by the Referee
• If there is no 4th official, A.R. assists with substitution procedures
![Page 51: back to basics- referees](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6489b4a795958188b45d7/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Flag Technique – Fouls
• Raise the flag with the appropriate hand
• Agitate the flag• Make eye contact
• Show direction with the appropriate hand
• Change hand with flag BEFORE raising
