Introduction
Decision making
• Forget about mandatory yellow cards for now, they are rare and
fairly easy to recognize
• Things you have to know immediately:
• Is it a Minor or Major foul?
• Who has possession at the time of the foul?
• Who committed the foul? (team color and number)
• Is a scoring play imminent?
• Is self start allowed?
• The next slide is a simple memory aid

Introduction
Advantage rule
outside the Advantage Flag Area
(held whistle)
• Used when the team in possession is fouled, but the player can
maintain quality possession of the ball and in the opinion of the
umpire stopping play would penalize the non-offending team
• The umpire will shout “advantage” and hold up a straight arm in
the direction of play

Introduction
Advantage Rule
inside the Advantage Flag Area
• The Advantage Flag is a held whistle for a major foul committed by
the defense when the attacking team is on a ‘scoring play’ in
within the Advantage Flag Area (AFA)
• The AFA includes the Marking Area (MA) playing area behind goal
starting from the ends of the Goal Line Extended until the end line
• The umpire raises a yellow flag to signify the held whistle untill the
scoring play ends
• While raising the flay, the umpire also shouts ‘flag’

Introduction
Advantage Rule
inside the Advantage Flag Area
• Scoring play is when the attacking team is making a continuous
attempt to go to the goal and score
• Scoring play is over when:
• A shot is taken
• The attack fails or stops their continuous attempt to score a
goal
• The attack makes a foul
• The attack loses possession of the ball
• The defense commits another foul that requires the play to
be stopped, such as ‘shooting space’. Or causes the attack to
lose their advantage

Introduction
Following an Advantage Flag
• If the attack makes a shot on goal, the advantage is ‘complete’ and
the umpire lowers the flag
• If a shot on goal is successful, the goal counts
• If a shot is wide, saved or deflected, play continues
• If the scoring play ends without a shot on goal and no advantage
was gained, the umpire will call the foul and a free position will be
awared to the player who was fouled.
• The offender will move 4 m behind the fouled player
• If scoring play ends because of a foul by the attack, a throw will be
set up

Introduction
Making the call
• Trust your gut!
• Whistle loudly
• Everybody needs to be able to hear you, including the 4th
umpire and both goalies (with helmets that ‘muffle’ sounds)
• Always use the appropriate signals:
• Stand still when making calls and signals
• Make slow, clear and big signals
• For direction of play
• For offenses, depending on the foul committed
• For direction of play (2nd time if needed)

Introduction
Making the call
• What if a foul has been committed by a non playing member of
the team?
• The official will use the captain of the team or the closest
player to the substitution area
• What if the official can’t see or remember the number of the
offending player?
• The official will use the closest team member
• You can always ask the other officials for help using a
Official’s Time Out. But try not to use this unless really
necessary

Introduction
• Stand tall!
• Even if you feel not so confident, looking it is half the job done
• Be clear when you speak to players
• Keep your instruction short and to the point:
• “Red #17, first inside hash mark, Blue #9 - 4m behind,
clear the fan”
• Point with your hand where you want players to go
• Self start:
• If self start is not allowed say “On my whistle”
• If self start is allowed, players may restart themselves
• Give them 2 – 3 seconds to self start, if they do not self
start, you can restart play with your whistle
