I Play On a Travel Soccer Team, Will Officiating Interfere With My Own Games?
We use an online assignment system that will also include your
game schedule. A facility (ATTACHING) in the system allows you
to associate yourself with your own games so we can assign around
your own game schedule AS LONG AS YOU FOLLOW OUR INSTRUCTIONS
and complete your game associations.
Our online system will have your game schedule WELL
BEFORE YOUR COACH so this is something easily handled. You NEVER
have to miss one of your own games and we don't want you to.
The AR Guide...it goes into more detail about ATTACHING so be sure to
read it.
YOU control your own availability AND you associate yourself with your games
so, short of a REAL EMERGENCY, we don't expect you to ever turn back a
game assignment. Of course, if there IS A REAL EMERGENCY, we understand...
however, we cannot effectively manage the Program with Officials who are routinely
turning back game assignments. Anyone who makes a habit of this risks dismissal
from the Program.
The majority of ARs play their own game and officiate 1 or 2 games each Sunday.
We also have the ability to assign you to 1 or more games before or after your
own AWAY games, if that is something that interests you. Once you are certified
and registered in the online system, your area G9 Assignor can help you with this.
All you need to do is request game assignments when you travel to your own AWAY games.
