As always, the referee’s decision is final. Almost all of our refs are kids who came through (or are still in) the Perry Soccer program. Please treat them with respect and encourage the kids to do the same. After the game the kids should be encouraged to shake hands (fist bump) the refs. They will make mistakes, just like we will make mistakes in coaching.  

Parents MUST sit on the opposite side of the field from player benches.
