REFEREES NEEDED!!

Sports Connect is the new system that AYSO has selected to take over eayso.org.  Both new and returning referees will need to register in this new system.  You can go to https://bluesombrero.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/categories/204098328-Parent-and-Player-Overview to assist you with registering and signing up to become a volunteer.

When signing up to become a volunteer, West Oahu will pay for the $25 membership fee. Please be sure you complete the volunteer application in Sports Connect, the background check and volunteer certification courses for the volunteer role you wish to fulfill on your child's team.  When signing up to volunteer, you will be transferred to another website call Sterling Volunteers to complete the background check.

THANK YOU FOR VOLUNTEERING FOR OUR KIDS!!

Referee Note — Did you know?

All items of jewelry (necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings, leather bands, rubber bands, etc.) are strictly forbidden and must be removed. Using tape to cover jewelry is not acceptable. Referees are also prohibited from wearing jewelry (except for a watch or similar device for timing the match). Disciplinary sanctions. The players are to be inspected before the match begins and substitutes before they enter the field of play. If a player is discovered to be wearing unauthorized clothing or jewelry during play, the referee must:

• Inform the player that the item in question must be removed.
• Order the player to leave the field of play at the next stoppage if he is unable or unwilling to comply.
• Caution the player if he willfully refuses to comply or, having been told to remove the item, is discovered to be wearing the item again.
• If play is stopped to caution the player, an indirect free kick must be awarded to the opposing team from the position of the ball when play was stopped.
