2016-1017 GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL SOCCER THREAD

Last night was the first time I saw the two refs at a HS game arguing with each other across the field on a call. It was hard to hear from the top of the stands, but I heard lots of "wah, wah, ... don't tell me how to ref... wah, wah..". This was very near the beginning of the game. The officiating didn't get much better from there. At least the KUSI camera man didn't put them in the highlights of the All Sport Report on the 10 o'clock news.

Which game?
 
The Los Al Edison game was filmed by Los Al TV but nowhere to be found on the 'net. Los Al will go deep in playoffs.
 

Good win.

That is a big referee no-no. If the two referees disagree they need to come together and talk quietly. Or, one of them needs to bite their tongue until halftime and have a quiet conversation between the two of them. There are numerous reasons that I may yell across the field at my partner, but agreeing with them is not one of them. Knowing the two coaches involved, I am sure one of them will contact the referee association.

Just curious, what type of call were they arguing over?

To be honest, I couldn't hear very well and I was not sure what happened. Play restarted with a free kick, but I don't know if it was direct or indirect. I think all the players were somewhat amused by it. The only ones that seemed to be upset were the home team high school boys watching from the stands, but part of their job description is yelling at the refs so the parents can seem somewhat dignified.
 
Wow, both the mighty Los Al and Huntington Beach fall yesterday...Huntington Loses to Newport Harbor (but it was just a matter of time before Newport put another W on the board) but Los Al loss to Fountain Valley is unexpected. This is good news for Edison as it puts them 2.5 games ahead of both teams in the Sunset League. Go Chargers!!

Look out for FV!
 
And Edison Clinches the Sunset League title in a nail biter against Los Alamitos! Goal scored on a set piece in the last 30 seconds of 2nd OT! What a way for the seniors to go out! Los Alamitos will go deep in the playoffs!

Sunset has some good players in it. Only problem I have is why mandatory OT in tied games? Draws are part of league soccer.
