If you have any questions or problems, Angie Ngiam, our Regional Referee Administrator can be reached at refereeadmin@ayso32.org

Referee Schedule ~
If you would like to sign up to referee games, please go to http://cgisports.com/ref/5123/. Register if you haven't already. You can not sign up to referee a game that you are affiliated with, (ie your child's game). As a referee, you can only give your points to a team that you are directly affiliated with unless you let the referee staff know the team's information before that division's first game.

Referee point requirements ~
U8 teams need at least 16 points to participate in the jamboree
U10 teams need at least 16 points to participate in the play-offs
U12 teams and U14 teams need at least 20 points to participate in the play-offs
U16 teams and U19 teams need at least 10 points to participate in the play-offs

• each team must also be in good standing with the region in order to participate in the jamboree or play-off

You must be a certified referee and sign the game card as well as sign in on the sign-in sheet located on the wall of the field house in order to receive credit for refereeing a game. U8 games are worth 1 point- no matter if you are the referee or one of the assistants.

• there will be one secret mystery U8 game that will be worth 2 points for the referee (center). The game will be revealed the following week on the referee sign-in sheets.

U10 and above games are worth 2 points- no matter if you are the referee or one of the assistants.

Get a new referee ~
Every team is encouraged, but every U8 and U10 teams are required to send a person 12 years or older who has never taken/passed the referee class to take the regional referee class and referee at least one game. Teams that do not send a new person to take the referee class and have that person referee at least one game will not be allowed to participate in the jamboree or play-offs, which ever is being held for your division.

U8 teams ~
All U8 teams will assistant referee their own games with the home team supplying one assistant referee and the visitors supplying the other assistant referee.
