NRW US Soccer Referee Abuse Program
US Soccer recently rolled out a new program in their continuing efforts to stop Referee abuse. The new program mandates reporting and sets out punishment guidelines for both verbal and physical abuse.
The Alabama SRC is rolling out a series of Zoom meetings to help you understand the new policy, your role in reporting, and the guidelines for sanctions. Our first such Zoom meeting will be held this Sunday, March 9th, beginning at 7 pm. You are strongly encouraged to attend and learn more about this policy, how you are expected to report any instances of abuse, and what is being done across the sport to quell abusive incidents.
The Zoom link is below, and a reminder will be sent later this week. Please join us to learn more about this important initiative and new policy.

Southern Coast Cup High School Soccer Tournament
To fully staff the number of games that are on this schedule, I will need at least 90 officials at the tournament. The event staff have secured 15 hotel rooms with double occupancy, so I have the capacity to bring in 30 officials from outside of the Mobile/Baldwin County area. Thus, I will be relying on support from the Mobile and Baldwin County referees for the majority of the assignments.
So that I can start building out a spreadsheet of available officials, I am asking that you please email me at fjonesiiihsc@gmail.com by Friday, March 14th, 2025 if you would like to be considered for game assignments. In your reply, I need the following information-
1- Name
2- Years of referee experience
3- Limitations (ex- you only can be an AR, only want to work JV games, no more than a certain number of games per day)
4- If you will need a hotel room (Mobile and Baldwin County Referees are not eligible for a hotel room)
5- What days will you be available and what times are you available on those days
6- Conflicts (ex-you do not want to be assigned to a certain school)
7- Special dietary needs
As many of these games are going to be very competitive matches, I will be looking to put together referee crews from the top officials who register. Thus, not everyone who applies to work this event will be selected for game assignments.
If you have already sent me your interest to work this event, you do not need to send me this information again. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you.
Frank
