Below is a message from our OSA Executive Director, Jason Elliott.
Good morning, everyone! By now, I’m sure you’ve heard of the new US Soccer Federation Referee Abuse Policy that takes affect for all members (OSA included) this season.
Information about this policy can be found at www.ussoccer.com/rap and we need your help getting the word out to your community!
US Soccer has created a customizable ‘Tool Kit‘ for you to use however you see fit. You can download the entire presentation, pictures, videos, and penalty summaries to use at your club, on your website, and on your social media channels. (You can find that Tool Kit HERE).
Cases involving Referee Abuse will continue to flow up to us at the State Association. The process must begin with the completion of the OSA Misconduct Report and/or Abuse Form, (found HERE).
Thank you for supporting OSA, USYS, and US Soccer and for doing your part to protect referees from abuse and behaviors that have no place in our game.
Jason Elliott
Executive Director
