RULES & REFEREES
Referees:
​
AYSL is looking for volunteer youth referees for the 2023 season!
​
For older players who are looking to expand their knowledge of the game and have fun doing it, consider volunteering to be a referee. Referees are provided with a shirt and whistle and can sign up for Saturday games that meet their schedules (we do not schedule weekday game referees). Referees must be at least 8 years old and must be 2 years older than the Division they are refereeing (ie 8 year olds can referee U7 games, where players are 6; 9 year olds can referee U7 or U8, and so on).
​
All referees must attend one of two referee clinics held as follows:
-
Wednesday, August 30 at 6pm at Stroney Field
-
Saturday, September 2 at 9:30am on the turf field
​
Please pre-register via the link below to be placed on the referee mailing list to sign up for games
​
​
​
Please contact AYS's Referee Coordinator, Emma Dyska, with any questions.
