Referee Cold Weather Wear: Referee Cold Weather Long, black or USSF warm-ups are encouraged. NO team information on either jacket or pants. Black beanie caps, warm black gloves are encouraged. NO hooded sweatshirts with the hoods pulled up are permitted. Dress in layers-cool wick fabric should be first layer that pulls the sweat away from the body; then something to keep the wet/wind out, then your referee uniform/warm-up. Pants permitted on AR's-particularly in the younger matches-try wearing shorts only as a center unless a very young match where you (and players) aren't moving fast enough to stay warm. Black-no logo's, stay warm-bringing a thermos of hot chocolate/soup in between matches is encourage! Hand and toe warmers are a huge help! Try a pair of light socks, place foot into a plastic bag, then referee socks and into shoes-your feet will stay warm/dry! Referee uniform is shirt (black turtleneck or wick away underneath), black referee shirts (no basketball shorts), referee (not player 3 stripe or USSF sox), and black (highly recommend waterproofing) shoes. Black gloves, black referee hat, black jacket. 2020 badge, wrist watch, MASK (which you MUST wear before, at half time and post match), bring your own flags and sanitize after every match. Sanitize all of your equipment after every match! Read referee protocols, rules of the game. NO coin toss, No dropped balls (we do not touch balls - use your feet to check air pressure). Have coach put roster on bench, pick up, coach will handle cards, call players name, you check picture, visually check player for equipment from a 6ft distance. etc. READ the ref protocols and league rules... Please continue to look and act professional but stay warm out there!
