This is a MANDATORY form that must be completed at least every 2 years. This is done to protect the players and anyone else involved in youth soccer. This is a statewide program that must be completed before anyone can be involved with the program in any position, whether coach, assistant coach, referee or any other volunteer including the Board.

While play is in the penalty area in front of the lead assistant referee, that assistant raises the flag with a waggle. When the referee on the far side of the penalty area blows the whistle, the assistant walks to the corner flag and stands at attention. What is the assistant referee signaling?

Keeper B1 comes out of the penalty area to defend a breakaway by A9. A9 successfully eludes B1 and continues toward the goal, but is intercepted by B2 near the goalline. B2 tackles the ball away from A9 and knocks the ball up-field. B1, who was outside the penalty area but is running back toward the play, picks up the ball inside the area marked by the penalty arc.

The goalkeeper sprints from the goal to stop the opponent’s attacker but succeeds only in clearing the ball away from the field of play over the touch line. Because of his speed, the goalkeeper’s momentum carries him off the field.
