Lead and Trail PositionsSettled Situation
22
PositioningSettled Situations - Lead Has his goal as his primary responsibility. Try not to move off the goal line extended (GLE)
unless: there is a contested play near the end line or must move to get a better angle on the play.
Move in and out with ball. Be as close to the crease as possible without interfering with play.
Do not allow players to get behind you. Has end line responsibility on all shots (chase
shots to the end line!). Return to GLE before whistling ball into play.
23
PositioningSettled Situations - Trail Watch for offsides. Watch action in his area. Report fouls to the table. Help with crease violations. Has most restarts. Watches the shooter & passer for a late hit.
Always know shooter’s number.

Here are the key places you can’t go wrong on the field with two man mechanics.
Key Places to GoSettled Situation
12
34
Trail: On offense: (1) If the ball is in possession, go to the corner of the
restraining box. (2) If the ball is loose, go to the junction of the midfield line
and the sideline.
Lead: On offense: (3) If the ball is loose or in possession of the offense, go to the
goal line extended. (4) If there is a shot, chase it to the end line.
27
Key Places to GoTransition

6
When the ball is being cleared:
Lead: (5) If you are the new Lead, stay at least one full zone ahead of the ball (so if the ball is in the Defensive Zone, you are at midfield; if it’s in Zone 3, you are at the top of the box, and if the ball is in Zone 4, you are on the goal line extended).
Trail: (6) If you are the new Trail, stay even with the ball, whether it is loose or in possession of the clearing team.
28
Transition
Trail becomes Lead Lead becomes Trail
Goalie makes the save Break to midline; see the ball,
quick check for offsides GLE responsibility- get there! First 10 second count into
attack box (Zone 4) Sprint to endline if contested
shot; return to GLE at restart Move “in” and “out” (crease) Sideline responsibilities
Goalie makes the save Goalie 4 second count;
start the 20 second timer Stay behind the ball; you
ultimately have off-sides 60 yard eyes- find the
shooter Jog to the restraining line Sideline responsibilities Stay with ball if ball
clears along your sideline

Fouls by Opposing Teams Rule 7-2-1d

Dead-ball fouls are enforced in the order they occur
65
Conflict Resolution
66
Conflict ResolutionCommunication Communicating with coaches
Ignore statements Answer questions Don’t explain every call, explain unusual calls Get information for them Be polite and respectful! Maintain composure
Communicating with players Encourage sportsmanship Talk them out of fouls Inform the goalie of the penalty and restart situation Briefly explain the call or rule
67
In cases of poor conduct, officials generally follow an escalating progression up ”The Ladder.”
1. Start with a verbal warning,
2. followed by a conduct foul when the offending team has possession,
3. then by a time-serving conduct foul,
4. then a 1- to 3-minute unsportsmanlike conduct, and
5. finally by a flagrant misconduct expulsion foul.
Depending on the severity of the foul and what preceded it, steps in this progression may be repeated or skipped.
Handling a Rowdy Coach
68
Conflict ResolutionCommunication Referee:
“That’s it! One more word and I’m throwing the flag!”
Coach: “Can you penalize me for what I’m thinking?”
Referee: “No”
Coach: “Good, cause I think you’re horse----”

Conflict resolution Recognize the conflict Diffusing the time bomb - how is it done? Sharpen your skills - what skills are needed?
70
What is conflict? Direct opposition, a clash or disagreement
between people Conflicts are experienced at home, work,
social recreation and officiating a contest As long as you have people dealing with
people, making decisions or meeting deadlines - you will have conflict
71
What Types of Conflict? Pre-existing (carry over from previous contest) Spontaneous Reaction - reaction in a critical
time in the contest Cumulative Response - series of calls or bad
breaks that do not favor one team
72
Resolving conflict For years people in authority just told others what
to do Now, people want to be heard and have a say in
what is happening Therefore, communication becomes very important
in resolving conflict Approach the conflict collaboratively - work with
coaches and/or your partner(s) Simple communication is at the heart of conflict
resolution With every conflict - it’s a matter of listening and
seeking to understand the problem Must be done within the framework of the contest
73
Levels of conflict Informal - more often handled quickly, less
noticeable by others - quick comments to coaches and participants
Formal - needs more attention more skills necessary to resolve or understand what the coach, player or official has heard or seen
74
Key components in resolving conflict Great listening skills Flexibility Willingness to change Agree to disagree
75
Listening skills Maintain eye contact Do not interrupt - let them finish Good posture - maintain a non-threatening
position Mentally rehearse situations you might
become emotional in
76
Flexibility Be able to adjust to any situation Do not try to handle the situation alone - use
your partner(s) Understand you are not going to please
everyone - agree to disagree - this is a two way street, but the official has final say
77
Willingness to change Get the call right - use your partner(s) If change is necessary - make the change Support your partner(s) - you are a team Understand the psychology of coaches and
what motivates them - communicate with them - know your coach
78
Defusing the situation
Informal conflicts: Normal contest situations will not be stopped Use visual acknowledgment with coach or
participants Direct eye contact or use caution sign. Use short verbal explanation “I hear you, I will watch for that” “I saw it differently than that” Use humor only when appropriate - timing is
of the utmost importance with humor Most of all - know your audience
79
Formal conflict Contest will temporarily be stopped You will be directly confronted by the coach. You
must evaluate coach’s degree of intensity. Listen, be flexible, evaluate the situation and make change if necessary
Help your partner with positive information - let partner make the call
Defuse the situation - do not abuse it - get everyone calmed down if possible
Establish your comfort zone and avoid letting a coach into your zone of comfort
Do not lose your composure - this is inexcusable
80
Formal conflict Always display proper physical demeanor Good eye contact Proper posture Listen rather than challenge Give quick precise explanation and move
forward Close the situation as rapidly as possible You can use the following: “Coach, I saw it
differently than that” “We need to get back to the contest” Remember defuse rather than abuse
81
Formal conflict If conflict continues, give them one last formal
warning If conflict continues, administer the
appropriate penalty and restart the contest as soon as possible
Serve as buffer for your partner
82
Necessary change If the official is in error, make the necessary
change Explain to the opposing coach and captain(s)
the situation and the change Get the contest started as quickly as possible
83
Review Keep one’s composure Evaluate the conflict Establish your comfort zone Must have good listening skills, be flexible and a
willingness to change if wrong Use simple communication to keep a situation
from escalating Review concerns to see if change is necessary Use your partner(s) as much as possible Approach a problem collaboratively Administer penalty if necessary - get contest
started as soon as possible
