Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.

Post-match Reports and Getting Paid

post-match responsibilities


Remember to take care of the final part of your match assignment: submitting reports (including any "supplemental" reports) and using Demosphere to submit the report that will trigger your getting paid.

 

Reports

Was there abuse at the match?

If you or a member of your crew ever experience verbal or physical abuse from anyone during a game, terminate the match:

Supplemental Report Writing

If you are required to write a Supplemental Report because of one the reasons cited below, e.g., spectator issues, be sure that your description of the incident is accurate, contains just the facts, is succinct, and uses terminology from the Laws of the Game.

Supplemental Reports may be required for the following reasons:

  • Send-off offenses: committed by players, substitutes, or substituted players.
  • Dismissal: for irresponsible behavior committed by coaches, team officials, or other occupants of the technical area.
  • Serious injury: suffered by a player, official, or match participant.
  • Spectator issues: involving outside interference, thrown objects, whistles blown, or other problems in the spectator area.
  • Field of play issues: such as surface conditions, incorrect markings, dimensions, flag posts, or goals.
  • Game delays: due to weather, serious injury, spectator interference, or other causes.
  • Verbal and/or physical abuse: abuse or assault directed at the Referee or other match officials.
