| The GLCSL Tournament Committee has met and presented a list | |||||||||
| of guidelines to be followed during the tournament season. It is noted | |||||||||
| that hosting sites need to download the Game Reports found online and | |||||||||
| should be used at every game by the center ref. This keeps record of | |||||||||
| of the game and any misconducts/cards. If cards are issued, the report | |||||||||
| must be given to the site director, and then sent to the league VP. | |||||||||
| Below is a summary of the guidelines: | |||||||||
| The field director is considered the “fourth ref.” | |||||||||
| Center official must be advised of any misconduct occurring during the game (at stoppage time). | |||||||||
| Warn any coach or spectator if abusive or negative comments are made before, | |||||||||
| during, or after the game. If a second offense occurs, then the person (fan or coach) will | |||||||||
| be told to leave the complex. If the person does not leave, the game will be on hold until | |||||||||
| they do or the game will be forfeited by the team which the person represents. | |||||||||
| Check in all players and coaches prior to EACH game. The center ref can assist with this if | |||||||||
| there are multiple fields at the hosting site. | |||||||||
| The fourth official must show impartiality before, during, and after the game. The league will | |||||||||
| not accept any favoritism by the director or referees. | |||||||||
| Sites must report all scores and cards that are issued to the league scorekeeper within 48 | |||||||||
| hours. (This season it is Steve Mull - contact information - smull@fremont.net or 231.924.8087 231.519.0529) | |||||||||
| Sites must report ALL cards given to any player or coach to the league scorekeeper, who | |||||||||
| will pass the info on to the league VP or President. This should include a report of | |||||||||
| what happened for each card and should be reported the same day as issued. | |||||||||
| Site directors are to call all forfeits, the referee may not. The site director is also responsible | |||||||||
| to call game delays and shortened game time for teams causing any delays. | |||||||||
| The site director may not be a coach, ref or assistant ref, during that game. | |||||||||
| Hosting sites must post game results at the site. | |||||||||
| Hand shakes will take place prior to the start of the game. | |||||||||
