CERTIFIED CLUB LINESMEN

 

UYSA has recognized the shortage of referees and would like to encourage more people to learn the Laws of the Game and become referees. UYSA also anticipates that, as the club linesmen are part of the refereeing crew, it will cut down on the amount of negativity from coaches and spectators toward the refereeing crew.

 

Welcome CCL’s

Watch this introduction video to find out how you can be registered as one of your team’s two Certified Club Linesman.

 
 
 

 

Each U9 & U10 Team will identify a minimum of 2 individuals as their club linesmen for the season

While adults (18 years +) are preferred, one of the two may be an individual between the ages of 15 and 18 years. The club linesmen will take an online UYSA club linesmen certification course and the Team will provide UYSA with a completion certificate.

CCL Training

Each U9 & U10 Team will provide one CCL for each game

  • The CCLs will act as part of the referee crew and focus on assisting the referee – including but not limited to out-of-bounds, build-out line issues, substitutions, and sideline management.

  • While acting as a CCL, the individual will wear a UYSA-provided vest identifying them as a CCL.

  • If a Team fails to provide a CCL for a game, the other team may provide a CCL to assist the referee.

  • If a Team fails to provide a CCL more than one time in a season, the Team will be required to procure an additional CCL.
