Can I just be assistant ref for my first couple of weeks so as to gain experience and let the coach continue to be center ref, as he knows the game and has been doing this for longer than me?!

If you are the only certified and uniformed referee on the field, you are the only one qualified to center the game, not the coaches. Coaches need to be on the sideline for U8 and above. Also – you should pull games from our website – check answer to Q2 above. If you need help, a senior referee and come and help in the first game as an observer/AR and mentor you. Please send email to rra@aysoirvine.org if you wish to schedule a mentor in your early games.
