Two-Referee System Policy Reminder
Under no circumstances are we to use the two-man referee system (as done in high school soccer). West Hartford Soccer follows FIFA Laws of the Game, not high school officiating rules.
Our club will not pay for two Center Referees (CRs) for the same match.
If you are ever short a referee:
Ask the coaches to provide a parent volunteer to act as a club linesperson (with agreement from both coaches).
The volunteer’s role is only to indicate when the ball has left the field of play.
The referee makes all decisions, including direction of throw-ins.
If you are the only referee assigned to the field:
You serve as the Center Referee.
Ask both coaches to provide two parent volunteers to act as club linespersons.
Follow the same process outlined above.
Please note: CJSA, CSRP, and both West Hartford clubs strictly forbid the two-man referee system.
If an incident were to occur while using an unauthorized two-man system, WH Soccer, CJSA, and CSRP would not support the officials involved in any capacity.
