W hy should you become an AYSO Downton San Jose Referee? We need you. We can't have games without referees. More importantly, it's rewarding and working with kids is great fun!
Referees are critical to soccer - the game can't be played without them. The referee's job is to be the official in charge of the game. He is the independent arbiter and manager of the game. Her authority extends to everyone at the field, including players, substitutes, team officials, spectators, and even assistant referees.
The referee's No. 1 one concern is to keep the game as safe as possible for the players. While there is risk in all sports, the referee is responsible for minimizing such risks from field conditions, equipment, spectators, and the players.
The referee is responsible for enforcing the Laws of the Game in such a way as to keep the game safe, fair and fun for everyone: the players, the coaches, the spectators and themselves. He interferes with the game as little as possible, avoiding making calls for doubtful and trifling offenses. Referees only make calls for offenses they are sure occurred.
We want our kids to continue to play, and they keep playing as long as it is fun. Referees learn that fun soccer varies from age group to age group of players.

Description
AYSO Region 1631 is a non-profit soccer league serving families in downtown San Jose, California. Our league is 100% volunteer-run! We are growing our wonderful team of volunteers. Come join us!
COACHES teach age-appropriate soccer skills and help kids develop a positive attitude, teamwork, and good sportsmanship. Coaches run practices 1-2 times per week in the evenings and one game per weekend for a 10-week season in Spring and Fall. New coaches can be paired with mentors, and we offer ongoing training.
REFEREES provide a safe, structured soccer experience for our weekend games. They keep games running smoothly and help players learn the rules of soccer. Referees help with weekend games on either Saturdays or Sundays and have no commitments on weekdays!
CLUB VOLUNTEERS help keep our league running smoothly. They help at special events, update our website manage finances, paint lines on our fields, manage equipment, and so much more. Hours are minimal and flexible for club volunteers!
No soccer experience? No problem! We provide all of the training, equipment, and support you need. High school and college students can get credit for school-required volunteer hours.
Learn more about our league at www.ayso1631.org and contact Laura at rc@ayso1631.org to get involved. See you out on the field!
