GAME DAY SAFETY PROTOCOLS
Oak Cliff Soccer Association Fall 2020 Game Protocols
In an effort to curve the spread of COVID-19 and keep our families safe and healthy, OSCA has created a simple list of safety protocols all gameday participants must follow. Please review the following list of safety protocols carefully and share with your teams, players, parents and participants.
If you are experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19 including cough, fever, sore throat, headache, body ache, chills, shortness of breath, rashes. If you have been in close contact with any person who has Covid-19, please do not participate in any league activities, games, practice, meetings.
Game Day Safety Guidelines
- MASKS All spectators, players, coaches, managers and parents must wear a face mask that completely covers the mouth and nose once having entered the fenced soccer field area. Parents, spectators and all attendees must wear a mask at all times. Players and coach may remove mask once warmup and soccer activities begin. Once game is completed players and coach must put masks on.

- We strongly encourage all attendees to sanitize hands and equipment before and after the game with soap and water or disinfecting sanitizer.
- Once your game is completed, there will be NO “Good Game” handshakes or high fives. Both teams and spectators should gather their belongings quickly and immediately leave the soccer complex. Put mask on until completely out of fenced area.
- Before your game starts please wait for the previous game players, coaches and spectators to leave before your team takes the sideline.

OCSA Referee Program
All referees in OSCA go through a formal training and development process coordinated by the Oak Cliff Soccer Referee Committee.
Aspiring referees are required to complete referee training sponsored by the North Texas State Soccer Association and its affiliates. The base, Grade 8, course includes 16-1/2 hours or classroom instruction and field sessions. Students must pass a referee certification test with a score of 75% or better.
The Referee Committee supports a mentoring and assessment program in which senior referees and assessors monitor and instruct referees each and every weekend during the season. Assessors determine whether referees are prepared to move to the "next level" of games.
Coaches are invited and urged to evaluate the performance of all OSCA referees for all league games. These Referee Evaluations go directly to the Referee Committee and serve as feedback indicating which referees are doing well and which may need more training or mentoring.
Typically new referees will start with younger recreational games, and work their way through the ranks to higher level games.
Senior officials must complete an annual physical assessment to ensure their fitness to cover high-level games.
Each year, all referees are required to pass a recertification test as a refresher to understanding the Laws of the Game. OCSA employs ONLY officials who are currently registered and certified through NTSSA, US Soccer, and FIFA.
Referees' Code of Conduct
All referees of OSCA matches, leagues, and tournaments are expected to understand and adhere to the NTSSA Referees' Code of Conduct. Any violations of the Code should be immediately reported to Referee committee
