THANK YOU
to all of our TPSC Referees!
Safety
Note about Goalposts!
Since 1979, there have been 27 deaths in the United States alone
from goalposts that have fallen over on players. DO NOT USE
unanchored goalposts. Period! Before practice and games, make sure
that the posts are anchored/staked/weighted to the ground. If you
find goalposts that are not anchored for games, let the club know
immediately. |

Dear Parents, Coaches, Managers:
Please take a minute to read this as there has been an important change in
referee rules that apply to class I, III and IV teams. Please also forward
this on to players, parents, etc who might possibly become certified
referees.
DISTRICT V RULE CHANGED TO REQUIRE AGE-APPROPRIATE REFEREES OR SUFFER
FORFEITURE:
District V has amended its referee rule (3:08:06) to provide
that the home team's failure to provide age appropriate (2 years older than
the age group playing) referees will result in forfeiture. Class I games
require 3 age appropriate referees for all age groups. Class III and IV
games require one age appropriate referee for U-10s and U-12s, two for
U-14s and three for U-16s and above. So, we have to provide the required
number of age appropriate referees for these games and the failure to do so now
will result in forfeitures. For obvious reasons, it is important that we train
as
many people as possible to become certified referees!

See Why Be A
Referee? and TPSC Referee Pay Scale
Both Tiburon and Mill Valley will sponsor Entry-Level Referee Courses. Details
here. Mill Valley courses
are via the link below. Neighboring leagues also hold courses that are usually available
for Tiburon/Mill Valley residents. Contact John Gulick at the
link above for more details. Tiburon courses are free to TPSC members.
The TPSC will reimburse youth referees ages 16 and under up
to $45 for the cost of their referee uniforms and will also pay for the
referee license fee for all referees.
Please pass the word about this course to team members, parents and anyone
else you know who might be interested in refereeing. For kids, it is a great
way to make some extra money. (For the the upcoming season, children
should be 12 years old by September.) For parents, it is a great way
to help our kids and our soccer program.
When are
other referee clinics held?
Dates and contact information can be found on the California North Referee
Association Website. (Note the different requirements for Grade 8 and Grade
9 certifications.) Here is a link to that site ...
