The Mentor Program is designed to allow experienced referees (the mentors) to give advice and assistance to less experienced officials (the mentorees), in a game setting.
![Page 4: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Mentoring Opportunities
• Mentoring may be done on any game at any level of play.
• The mentor may watch all three officials from the side line.
• The mentor may be an official in the game and provide assistance with other officials working the game.

The Mentor’s Advice
Strong Points• 3 – 4 points to encourage
the referee• Items that were done well
given the stage of development of the referee.
• Be positive, let them know that they are doing some things well.
Recommendations• 2 – 3 points the referee can
use to improve.• Be kind, give them
something that they can work on in their next game to help them get better.
• Be positive – we want them to get better not give up.

![Page 8: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
When To MentorBefore the game1. ensure that the mentoree is familiar with
his/her pre-game responsibilities, e.g.a) confirm that the field and goal posts are in
safe conditionb) check on the players (uniforms, jewelry,
etc.)c) obtain game balls and arrange for
collection of game sheets and fees
![Page 9: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Before the Game (cont’d)
2. Ensure that the mentoree is professionally dressed.
3. Carry out the pre-game instructions or listen to the mentoree’s pre-game instructions
4. Encourage questions from the referee team prior to the coin toss
![Page 10: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
At Half Time
Choose one, or at the most two, points which you would like the referee to focus on in the second half. For example ask the referee to try to make eye contact with the referee crew on every stoppage in play, or to keep the ball between him/her and the near assistant referee.
![Page 11: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
At Half Time (cont’d)
Similarly, ask the AR to keep in line with the second last defender, or to look to the halfway line at every stoppage in play to determine if a substitution should be signalled.
Don’t forget to tell the referee/AR what he/she has done well.
![Page 12: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
After the Game
1. Review the game with the mentoree – there should be more strong points than recommendations for improvement, in order to encourage skill development
2. Encourage the mentoree to contact you if she/he has any questions in the future
![Page 13: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

What To Look ForFollowing are a series of slides which will give the mentor some guidance in determining the strong points and areas in which the referee can improve his/her performance. They show basic characteristics and skills which a referee uses in every game.
![Page 16: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Uniform
A properly dressedreferee immediately projects an image of confidence and professionalism upon entering the field of play
![Page 17: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Pre-Game InstructionsThey should always be given!The pre-game instructions not only give the referee the opportunity to inform the Assistant Referees how the game is to be managed, but also allow the AR’s the chance to ask any questions they may have concerning procedures, communication, positioning, etc.
![Page 18: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Throw-in or Foul
The mechanics for a throw-in, or showing direction for a foul, are similar, with the arm held at, or just above horizontal
![Page 26: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

The Whistle
• The referee’s voice• Develop a repertoire of sounds to mirror the
reason for blowing it, e.g. a) normal blast for stoppages in play, b) a louder and longer blast for cautions, and c) still louder and longer for ejections, penalty kicks, and the initial kick-off
• Keep it attached to the hand or fingers – do not hold it in your mouth
![Page 31: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Eye Contact• Eye contact between
CR and AR’s is essential
• During stoppages in play
• During active play• Mirror opposite AR’s
signals when appropriate
![Page 32: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
PositioningGeneral Principles• Be in the right position to make the right
decision• The referee keeps the ball between him/her
and the near AR, i.e. use the diagonal system of control
• Keep within 10 – 20 yards of the ball• On set plays be close to where the ball is
expected to land
![Page 33: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Corner Kick Position• Opposite the far post
from the AR and near the top of the penalty area
• Move to proper location as necessary following the kick
• Vary position throughout the game depending upon players’ actions and levels of ability
![Page 34: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Foul Recognition• Study Law 12 (Fouls and
Misconduct) in detail• It is the duty of the referee to
penalize only deliberate breaches of the Law. Constant whistling for trifling and doubtful breaches produces bad feeling and loss of temper on the part of the players and spoils the pleasure of the spectators
![Page 35: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Game Control• Know the laws of the game • Understand the game• Be physically fit • Recognize and penalize fouls properly• Protect players from injury• Respect the players, team officials and
spectators
![Page 36: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Game Control (cont’d)• Communicate expectations to players and
team officials• Deal with players who consistently foul
(persistent infringement)• Refrain from argumentative/vindictive
behaviour• Deal with gamesmanship
![Page 37: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Fitness• Warm-up, physically
and mentally, before each game
• Maintain pace from beginning to end of the game
• Sprint when necessary to be where the play needs you
• Train by yourself or with fellow referees
![Page 38: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Mentor Evaluation Name of Referee: A BCR: x AR:__ Game Date: August 2, 2009Game(s) (include age, tier and gender): U12B Boys Name of Mentor: X Y________________________________________________________________________Strengths:
Your arm signals were mechanically correct, pointed in the right direction and held long enough (~ 2 sec) for everyone to see. All but your signals for fouls were made decisively. Keep working on the foul signals by signalling first, then, if necessary, indicate from where the kick is to be takenYour whistle volume was very goodYou demonstrated a good knowledge and application of the laws of the game by recognizing most fouls, penalizing correctly, and restarting properlyYour eye contact, both at stoppages in play and during active play was quite good; but keep working on this skill until you automatically look at your AR’s at every stoppage in play, and frequently during active play. Remember to check for substitution signals before you record a goal Your positioning was correct on kick-offs and corner kicks. You kept up well with play throughout the match
(Cont’d on next slide)
![Page 45: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Mentor Evaluation (cont’d)
Areas for development:Keep working on the substitution procedure so that you always sub through your lead AR. You certainly improved on this procedure in the second half, and the second gameStudy pages 70, 72 & 73 of the Laws of the Game for details on positioning for goal and free kicks. The general principle is that you want to be near where the ball lands while at the same time keeping the ball between you and your near AR. On throw-ins being taken in the middle section of the field move forward so that you are closer to where you expect the ball to land.
X Y, you refereed these games with confidence and obvious officiating ability. Based on your performance I am recommending that you be upgraded to a Level 1 District Referee. Well done.
![Page 46: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

good offside callsAll of your signals were correct.You showed confidence on the line with the calls you madeYour improvement between halves was great to see.
(Cont’d on next slide)
![Page 47: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Mentor Evaluation (cont’d)
Areas for development:
When making signals remember to do so stationary and to hold them for approx. 2 seconds. Some times you were making your signals while still running with the play and therefore would only hold them briefly.Remember to run all the way to the corner flag when signalling a goal kick or a corner kick.Sometimes on grass fields it can be difficult to side step to keep up with the play, but when it is possible it becomes a great tool for you when following playWhen the ball goes out of bounds and comes back in bounds quickly in the referee’s half it makes for a more decisive call to raise your flag in the air first so he/she knows the ball is out before signalling.
A B, I was impressed with the improvement you showed in the course of only a couple of games. Keep up the good work!
![Page 48: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
In Summary
• Mentoring is a vital development tool for the referee.
• We should mentor fellow referees on any suitable occasion
• Mentoring does not always have to be formalized with a written report
![Page 49: Soccer Nova Scotia Referee Development Committee Mentor Program Primer](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56815bf5550346895dc9e54d/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
In Summary
• Mentoring helps your region by ensuring proper officiating in all games.
• Mentoring helps the provincial assessment program by providing information on the development of referees
• Mentoring helps the provincial instructional program by identifying areas for future educational programs.
