Special Notes

• A common question from new referees is how do we get paid for credit leagues?


After the season, the leagues are billed. Once the payment is received by our organization from all of the leagues, checks are distributed via mail by the Treasurer.


• Can we use a two-whistle system in USSF sanctioned matches if a referee is missing?


Under no circumstance should a dual whistle system be used in a USSF game!


• Complete and Proper Uniform for USSF sanctioned matches.


All referees working USSF sanctioned matches must follow the USSF uniform guidelines.  Visit U.S. Soccer's website for more information.

In the event of an incomplete uniform:
a) Go home and get your complete and proper uniform, or
b) Since a club Assistant Referee (AR) need not have a complete uniform, then a referee not in uniform may work, but for the same pay as a club AR (i.e., "nothing").

Special Notes:
- Must check player passes.
- Club Pass System – Carded players on U-9 through U-12 teams are permitted to guest play or any U-9 through U-12 teams within their club for which they are aged qualified. The main objective of the club pass system is to allow coaches to move players freely within their own club based on specific team needs and in the interest of player development. Players using club passes are considered guest players and can only play for one WAGS team per day. During Spring Season Play, an age appropriate U-12 player cannot play for another U-12 team in the same division or a U-12 team in a lower division.
