NSYSA joins U.S. Center for SafeSports to make athlete well-being the centerpiece of our nation’s sports culture through abuse prevention, education, and accountability.

The current NSYSA SafeSport policy is available online

This insight from Washington State Referee Committee is being communicated with all Referees returning to games this week.

"As many counties within the state of Washington move into Phase 2, and hopefully we see games resume next weekend, we want to keep you updated about protocols and the one major change that has taken place.

"To meet state guidelines, Washington Youth Soccer and the WA State Referee Committee have worked together to review the original set of Return to Play Protocols and to make any necessary revisions. We have incorporated the referee responsibilities into the WYS Protocols and Safety Plan, but we also have our own documents. These protocols are also posted on the WASRC website.

"Return to Play for Match Officials - http://www.wareferees.org/Documents/Return%20to%20Play%20-%20Match%20Officials%20(Jan2021).pdf

"WYS Gameday Protocols - https://washingtonyouthsoccer.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/WYS_League_Protocols_Safety_Plan_1.29.21.pdf

"Please note that the WYS gameday protocols only apply to games sanctioned by WYS. Please check with the league and/or your assignor for games sanctioned by US Club or adult matches.

"The main change to the protocols for officials is the mask requirement. MASKS MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES - THIS INCLUDES DURING THE GAME.

"To summarize the guidelines:
· As a referee, you are only responsible for your behavior.
· Don’t referee if you are not comfortable with it at this time.
· If you are not feeling well, contact your assignor as soon as possible.
· Follow all state and local guidelines.
· Maintain proper distancing at all times.
· Wear a mask before, during, halftime, and after the match.
· Do not touch the game balls or player passes at any time.
· Use hand sanitizer.
· Don’t shake hands, fist-bumps, etc.
· Use common sense

Youth/Adult Sports

These guidelines will align school related and non-school related sports guidance. Tournaments and crowds are prohibited in counties that aren’t in the low-risk category, but these guidelines will allow more school and non-school sports, both indoor and outdoor, according to a combination of local metrics. These metrics are aligned with state metrics for school opening recommendations. It also provides specific protocols for transportation, group size and facial coverings.
