Important Referee Information for Coaches and Team Managers - Outdoor 2011

New Referee Information Sheets for CMSA Coaches and for ICHL Coaches

Coaches, please be aware that the CMSA Zero Tolerance Policy to control referee abuse is still in place. To see the Zero Tolerance Policy, click here.

CWSC is supporting the CMSA Zero Tolerance Policy in four ways:

1. Creating a Referee Liaison/Field Marshal Volunteer Role who is responsible for attending games and submitting a Referee Liaison/Field Marshal Report - flagging any concerning behaviour of coaches and/or parents. See Referee Liaison/Field Marshal Role description - click here.

2.  Creating an online, mandatory Referee Education Course which must be taken by:

  • All coaches and assistant coaches
  • All Referee Liaison/Field Marshals
  • One parent from each family

3. Acting on all Referee Liaison/Field Marshal Reports submitted for concerning behaviour.  These teams will NOT have a referee assigned to the their NEXT home game. There will be no warning and no exceptions. Coaches and Parents will receive Coach and Parent Information Packages at the beginning of the season which give prior warning. Once the season has started no further warnings will be given.

4. Recruiting parents to referee games with ASA or ICL referee training - let's hope parents and coaches will maintain respect for fellow parents!

Let's let the kids play, the coaches coach and the referees ref!

 Police Clearances

 All team officials on a roster must have a police clearance done. If you live within Calgary city limits, this can be done by coming to the CMSA office during CMSA Office hours and filling out a CPIC application form and bring the following ID (one of the following: Passport, Driver License, or Citizenship Card and one of the following: Birth Certificate, Alberta Health Care Card, or your Social Insurance card).  If you live outside the Calgary city limits, you must visit your local RCMP detachment.

 For all teams, if there is a male player on the team you must have a male adult team official on the roster. If there is a female player on the team, you must have a female adult team official on the roster.

 CMSA Photo ID Cards

 All players from U12 to U18 require a valid CMSA Photo ID card with an expiry date.  The referee may ask that these cards be handed in individually to the referee at the start of the game.  If a player does not have their CMSA Photo ID card they will not be allowed to participate in the game. All Team Officials for U10 to U18 teams requires a valid CMSA Photo ID.

 For more information on Photo ID cards please go the CMSA website. Please note there is a $10 charge for all ID cards.

Gamesheets, Scoring and Team Contact Information

 To access your team gamesheets, to score games, and to obtain contact information for the other teams in your division, you will need to use the login information that was emailed to you on Thursday, April 28th.

 Go to www.CalgaryMinorSoccer.com. In the top right corner, click login. Use the login information sent on April 28th (any logins previously sent will not work).

 Under Statistics Tools, select the schedule where your games are (Exhibition, Seeding Round, Regular Season). Change the date range to the date of your game.

 To update your team jersey numbers, click Report. Then select Edit Jersey Numbers. This is the same place that you will enter the game scores. It is the winning team’s responsibility to score each game within 48 hours (earlier if possible) of the game being played. In the case of a tie, it is the home team’s responsibility to enter the score.

 To print the gamesheets, click print gamesheet. You will need to print 3 copies for each game.

 If next to a player or coaches name on the gamesheet it says ‘inel’, that player or coach is not eligible to play in the game. For players it means that they have either not accepted the waiver form or not provided proof of age. For coaches it means that CMSA does not have a valid police clearance on file. Please contact your club administrator if you have any questions regarding player eligibility.

 To obtain the contact information for the teams in your division, under League Admin Tools select Coach Contact List.

 Gamesheet drop boxes are at the following locations: Calgary West Soccer Centre, Subway Soccer Centre, Cedarbrae Community Centre, Dalhousie Community Centre, and Willowridge Community Centre.

 Rescheduling

 It is inevitable that at some point this season your games may be rained (or snowed) out. Please review the complete rescheduling policy on the CMSA website under the coaches and managers section.

 The process to reschedule games due to team travel is also in this document.

 Player Suspensions

 Team Officials are responsible for tracking Yellow Card accumulations for all players registered on their team. Once a Player has accumulated three, five or seven yellow cards during the current season, the player MUST sit out their next CMSA League game(s) and indicate on the game sheet the serving of the game(s) suspension(s).

 Field Marshall Program

 Please read the information posted on the CMSA website regarding this program. It is mandatory for all teams to provide a Field Marshall at each game, no exceptions. The Field Marshall’s name MUST be written on the gamesheets for every game in the space provided.

 Referee Evaluation Forms

 Referee evaluation forms can be completed on the CMSA website, the link is under the coaches and managers section. Please complete an evaluation for each game your team plays this season. All evaluation forms are reviewed, and it is just as important that you let us know when you’ve had a good experience as when there’s need for improvement.
