Soccer Rules
The basic soccer rules are described in these Definitions. See “Advantage Clause“, “Cards”, “Fouls”, “Hand Ball”, “Offside Rule”, “Shoulder Charge”, “Assistant Referee”, “FIFA”, “Corner Kick”, “Free Kick”, “Goal Kick”, “Kick Off”, “Lines“, “Penalty Kick”, “Substitutions” & “Throw-Ins”. Also, see “Rules” and “Safety Rules”, Basic Information & Tips for Beginning Coaches. Soccer rules are revised annually by FIFA. You can visit www.fifa.com. for the latest official soccer rules, which are called the “Laws of The Game”.
Soccer Referee
Most youth soccer games have one referee on the field, called a “Center Referee”, who is the referee-in-charge and 2 Assistant Referees. (See “Assistant Referee“).
Soccer Assistant Referee
(aka “Linesman”). There are 2 per soccer game, one on each side line, who mainly “call the lines” & offside, but can also report soccer fouls & advise the Referee. On throw-ins, they indicate when the soccer ball is out-of-bounds by pointing the flag in the direction in which the attackers will advance (i.e., toward the goal of the team it is out on).
