Rules & Officiating
Northern Attack Officiating Tips:
Don't be afraid to call a replay if you're unsure what happened. It's far better than guessing.
Own your mistakes. If you realize you made the wrong call, acknowledge it and apologize. Coaches and players respect honesty.
Make your calls with confidence. Even when you're still learning, project confidence. Fake it 'til you make it! (but don’t be a jerk). Confidence helps the match run more smoothly.
Treat others the way you want to be treated. The teams you referee will be officiating one of your matches next. Be fair, be respectful, and always do your best.
Enourage your players to be honest. If there was a touch and the other team is yelling for a touch; teach honesty.
