Loved watching all my ballers this high school seasonโฆand am just as excited to begin training for and representing @NEBStateSoccer at @USYouthSoccer
regionals in KC!
As coaches & parents, the last thing we want (I would hope at least) is to kill the love of the game for our players.
It goes the same for referees. Donโt kill their love for the game. Theyโre involved in the game for a reason.
Do better.
These singular instances of bad behavior often lead to our community losing a referee (if not multiple).
Donโt be the reason a referee leaves the game.
Cheer for your players, Tell everyone good game and be the reason a referee tries again next week. #supportourrefs
In Nebraska we continue to have a shortage of soccer referees. 51% of our refs are between 13 - 17 y/o. 22% are 17 y/o and under and have been a referee for less than a year.
This type of abuse by coaches and parents isnโt helping to retain young referees who are learning to referee soccer just like your 9 year old is learning to play soccer.
Be Kind.
Tomorrow night at Speedway Village: Sporting Nebraska Lincoln team formation for โ07 and โ08 girls to be held on Field 5 from 7-8:30pm
Play and train next level in a healthy environment.
