How to be a reliable (pretend) referee in an amateur football match

"Some people say that football is higher than life and death." Then the referee is the judge who is higher than life and death!

There are thousands of football fans. In fact, amateur football is very popular in every city in China, but referees in amateur football matches are often abandoned in the corner and become dispensable. Role. This is a bad start. If you are abandoned by others, you will be more disliked by others, so that many people mistakenly think that those who can play football can be referees, or "if you don't play well, just be a referee." Many amateur events also haphazardly piece together a team of referees, leading to complaints from players on the field and even conflicts on the court.

As a certified referee who plays in amateur games (actually I haven’t registered for a long time and has expired), let’s talk about how to be a reliable referee in amateur games. I believe that a reliable referee can control the order of the court well and ensure the quality of amateur football matches!

1. First of all, you must learn to judge what kind of amateur football events require and pay attention to referees.

Because in many amateur games I participated in, there was no referee role, or even worse, I was told that there was only one referee in a game even though it was a 7-a-side game. This is all blatant discrimination against the work of referees. If you want to be a pretentious, oh, no, reliable referee, then you must stay away from such events and truly love life. Because no matter it is a 5-a-side, 7-a-side, or 11-a-side game, a referee has no way to see whether it is out of bounds or offside - of course there is no offside in a 5-a-side game. I really know the ball. . And if faced with a controversial ball in this area, no matter how you brag, one party will always be dissatisfied, and may even be hit by a combination of irrational players.

2. Secondly, make sufficient preparations before the start of the event to highlight your professionalism.

Certificate of employment

If you are certified, remember to bring your referee grade certificate (in China, the grade of football referees is divided into 5 levels, from low to high, it is the national level three , National Level 2, National Level 1, National Level, and International Level. Only those at the national level and above can be referees in the Super League and the Chinese League A. The most common referees in amateur competitions are level 3 and level 2 referees. Most of them start from the school football association or. Not long after registering with the local football association). You should also read the order book carefully and familiarize yourself with the international standard rules. Often amateur game rules will be modified based on the standard international rules to adapt to the skills, tactics and physical strength of amateur players. For example, illegal kicks, penalties for returning goalkeepers to hold the ball, and direct and indirect free kicks are often encountered in amateur games. These all affect your control and credibility of the game. Confirm with the organizer what hardware they provide, such as corner flagpoles, linesman's side flags, etc.

Wristwatches

You should configure two watches, one for stopwatch timing during competition, and one for simply checking the time as a backup. You have never experienced the embarrassment of having your watch suddenly break shortly after the start of the game. Of course, you don’t know how many horses were racing through my heart before I blew the midfield whistle.

Whistle

Speaking of whistles, you should also be equipped with two whistles. A whistle of poor quality cannot be used because it will leak when the sound is blown and will not reflect your majesty on the field. , the best whistle should be the FOX brand, the price is tens to hundreds, the domestic butterfly is also good, cheap and practical. You see, I usually use two red and blue whistles. A black whistle is unlucky and should never be used. It's best not to use a very long strap. It would be really ugly if the strap hangs down when you blow the whistle. You have to be very stubborn and wrap the whole strap around your wrist.

Red and yellow cards

Next are the essential red and yellow cards, pens and recording paper. There's nothing special about this, just don't make your own inferior red and yellow cards, there's a ready-made set on the market. In addition, I would like to remind you that in order to better pretend, red cards and yellow cards should be given separately. I usually put the red card alone in the back butt pocket of the referee's shorts. You run and you know it's time to go back to the locker room. This not only avoids the embarrassment of pulling out the wrong card, but also shows your determination and self-recognition in making penalty decisions. Remember, running over to a super player with a red card is the most glorious moment for the referee. It is like foreplay for you to have sex. If you mess up, you will be laughed at, and there may be an audience for this.

Referee Uniforms

You can’t go on the court naked. Although many players in amateur competitions are not uniformly dressed, as a referee, you still need to have a complete set of referee uniforms. Dark gray shorts, a yellow or dark gray top, plus black shoes and socks can make you stand out among the players. Yes, it's you, a bright black (yellow) color on the green court!

3. There is still 1 hour before the game

Arrive at the stadium at least one hour in advance. Make sure you have all the equipment you brought with you. Confirm the facilities on the court, such as the hardness of the court, the quality of the turf, whether the lines on the court are clear, whether the net is intact, whether there are corner flagpoles, and whether there are linesman's side flags.

After confirmation, you can warm up with your referee team and do some running and stretching near the midline to prevent strains during the game. Amateur games often do not have a fourth referee to back up. This is also a very important moment of pretense and the first impression you make on the players who are warming up. Therefore, during the warm-up process, chat and give instructions to your right and left hands (linemen), and look relaxed.

4. With your two whistles

The game has not started yet. At this time, you stand at the junction of the center line and the sideline with the ball in your hand. Two consecutive whistles, and the second one is longer, are to tell the players on both sides that the game is about to begin. Please come to the left and right sides of you to line up and prepare to enter. field. In fact, many teams don't understand this intention, so they still want you to shout at the top of your lungs: Let's enter!

The two columns enter the field, stand in a straight line near the kick-off point, signal to the audience (mostly imaginary), shake hands with the players of both sides, let the captains of both sides pick sides, and give them instructions "Move small", "Listen to the whistle", "Friendship first" and so on.

The ball is placed at the kick-off point in the center circle. As the referee, you need to raise your hands with the goalkeepers of both sides and your linesman to indicate that everyone is in their positions.

5. With your whistle

The game begins. Remember, as a referee, the best way for you to exist is to make your presence invisible. Isn’t it a bit tragic? After all, you are responsible for ensuring that the game is fair and smooth. You can’t touch the ball and you shouldn’t touch the ball, but you still have to follow the ball everywhere and keep an eye on it. Based on my experience, pay attention to the following points regarding location. 1. You should always keep a certain distance from the ball. Taking seven-a-side as an example, three to five meters is more appropriate. 2. You should run in an "S" shape in the general direction, because your two linesmen cannot pass through the midfield. Assuming that they are active on the right front field and left back field respectively, then your running should be in an "left front field". The "S"-shaped running of "field - center circle - right back field" can not only compensate for the far end of the linesman, but also try to ensure that the ball and the linesman are on the same side of your line of sight, so that you can detect offside in a timely manner. 3. You need to have a rough judgment on the direction of the ball, so that you can choose your position earlier and observe the ball from a better perspective. There are some unwritten rules in amateur competitions, such as: tackle - the whistle will be blown if the person is brought down, regardless of whether it touches the ball first; injured and fell to the ground - no matter whether it is advantageous or not, the game will be stopped as much as possible; supplementary time - generally there is no additional time. For some actions, amateur players who have not received professional training are inherently more risky to others and themselves. The main thing is to ensure everyone's health and safety. No one wants to have fun kicking a ball during the holiday and then use crutches to attend class next week.

Of course you should treat the court as your own stage and show your confidence. I have seen many referees in amateur matches who dare not blow the whistle, hesitate to make decisions, or even have confused thinking, and get confused when a player yells at them. This is mainly due to their lack of confidence due to insufficient professional skills. At the professional level, it is mainly rules, whistles and gestures. This is the continuous development and evolution in the history of football to what it is today. I will not discuss it in detail here, but as a referee, you need to constantly update this knowledge. , so how important it is to keep pace with the times. For example, the offside penalty and the goal judgment have been adjusted in recent years. If the understanding of the rules is the inner part of the referee and is the "ten years of work off the stage", then the whistle and gestures are the referee's "one minute on the stage". The court is your stage! The whistle is your own accompaniment! Gestures are your graceful dancing posture! But you are destined to be just a backup dancer. An excellent backup dancer knows how to be dedicated and low-key. To evaluate whether an amateur referee is excellent can be seen by controlling the frequency of the whistle.

During the game, the whistle does not need to be blown every time the ball is dead. When there is no dispute about the ownership of the ball, you only need to give a gesture to let the game proceed smoothly. Only when the ball is in dispute, you need to stand up with whistles and hand signals to tell the players who has the final say here!

Although you are a "judge in black", it is still important to assess the situation. Talking human words to people and lying to ghosts can make you stand in both worlds (whatever you say, BULLSHIT!)! It depends on the relative strength of the two sides and whether the relationship between victory and defeat is important. In tight and important games, penalties must be strictly enforced, yellow cards must be issued as early as possible, players must be proactively restrained from impatience, and penalties must be determined decisively, but with a kind expression. Make both parties trust your judgment and authority. Competitions with huge disparities in strength are relatively easy, so everyone in the entertainment industry can finish their work early. In fact, I have always been very strict in refereeing games!

6. Du~du~du~~~

When the game is over, you have drawn the curtain on the stage, and the curtain call is the final performance. Holding the ball, standing at the kick-off point in the center circle, calling the players from both sides to line up, shaking hands (actually high-fives), congratulating the winning side (however the game was not very good), encouraging the losing team (the game was really bad), and letting the Come on everyone, thank you for your hard work. It’s officially done!

7. Follow-up

Organize your game penalty records, scorers, carders, and penalty times. If there are special circumstances, such as physical violations or conflicts, you can review them process, giving the written perspective of the referee team, leaving it to the event organizer to make subsequent announcements and accountability.

Take a hot bath and finish pretending!

Actually, I just want to wish everyone a happy outing!
