Referee Coaching Criteria
The marking scale to be used for Referee Coaches has been adapted from the FIFA Marking Scale.
Coaches should follow the instructions and apply the evaluation criteria issued.
The purpose of observing referees and assistant referees in matches is:
- Provide reports giving evaluative appraisal of the performances of match officials
- Ensure a uniform and consistent interpretation of the Laws of the Game are applied
- Issue verbal and written assessments of performances to Match Officials
The purpose of the Coaches report form is:
- Achieve uniformity in the marking of match officials
- Award Referees and Assistant Referees marks within the prescribed scale which reflects the individual’s performance and the nature of their task
- Submit the report within a defined time frame following the end of the match
- Provide specific and accurate examples within the report to support the comments
