Coast Soccer League Reminders(Club)

As we are beginning the season, here are items and protocol to follow:

Referee’s should carry and present their Cal South\USSF ID card and present it upon request.

Arrive early and check in the players, Check-in includes obtaining 3 copies of the roster, game fees and player ID cards.

Check to make sure the ID’s match each player and all players that are going to play have an ID and place a checkmark on the roster. If a player does not have an ID, they cannot play NO EXCEPTIONS.

No hard or plaster casts are allowed.

Home team chooses the side of the field their spectators will be on and will change in case of a color conflict.

If a player arrives late, they will be allowed to play as long as they have an ID card and hands it to the referee. The coach or the referee should add the name and player ID number to the roster at the first opportunity or after the game. If one or both teams feel there is something wrong with players, ID’s etc. They have the right to not sign the match report. It is the referee’s responsibility to detail these incidents in the match report.

A coach or team administrator with a Proper ID card must be present for the whole match. Do not start the match or continue a match without a licensed team coach or administrator NO EXCEPTIONS.

If a team fails to show, does not have ID cards or does not have a licensed coach or administrator within 15 minutes after the time the match was to start, the game is subject to a forfeit and the referee must detail this in the match report.

Remember to completely fill out the match report and any additional reports if necessary and mail them in ASAP.

Remember to give the teams back their Player ID cards after the match. We only pull and mail in ID’s or license in the case of assault or Violent conduct.

Remember water breaks and staying hydrated for Referee’s and the players.

Have Fun out there, if there are any unusual circumstances that we have not covered let us know. We are posting the CSL rules on the resources page of the website for you to reference.
