Referee development is something LSSA continues to invest in by having mentors observe and/or referee alongside less experienced referees.

The form is meant to be used by coaches to provide feedback on a specific game.
Coaches for U7 and up are required to submit a game card at the start of each game listing the players in number order. The game card must include the division, date, game time, and coaches names.

Prior to each season the following forms need to be completed by coaches.
