How the Region 83 referee scheduler works |
|
There are just three easy steps to follow when scheduling yourself for a game:
-
Login to the website
-
Enter the search criteria for the games you wish to view
-
Sign up for a game that has an opening
|
 |
Logging in to the website |
|
|
Visit the referee schedule website at this link:
http://www.fanciful.org/scripts/cgi-sports/ref.pl
Feel free to bookmark this link directly, or, you can always find a link to the website at
http://www.5cities-ayso.com on the referee web page. |
 |
Entering your search criteria |
|
|
Once you are logged in, you will see a screen with various items listed such as [Category], [Date], [Game Time], [Location]. The system works by inputting a game selection criteria, and then displaying the games so you can sign up.
Let's do an example:
I want to referee a U10 Boys game on 05-Oct-2002.
-
In the CATEGORY box, highlight U10B
-
In the DATE box, select 05-Oct-2002
-
In the SHOW box, select ALL RECORDS (this will show both open and taken games)
-
Click on View Records
|
 |
Signing up for your game |
|
The list of U10 Boys games on October 5th are displayed. Under each game is a set of three boxes -- one marked [C] for [Center] referee. The other two are marked [A] for [Assistant] referee.
Type your first and last name into the box you wish to sign up for. Note: it is important that you input your name the same way each time. This will allow you to search for games by [Ref Name] later on...
Once you have typed in your name, click on [Make Request]. That's all there is to it! Your name will appear in the box in BLUE while waiting for the referee scheduling coordinator to approve it. |
 |
Why are some names BLUE and some names BLACK? |
|
Games are color coded to indicate the scheduling status
-
Names in BLUE are game requests that are PENDING. The referee administrator has not approved this request yet.
-
The names in BLACK are SCHEDULED. The referee administrator has approved these game assignments.
|
 |
Why are some games listed in GREEN? |
|
Games listed in a green background are Priority Games. In our database, we have listed all of early games as Priority. This highlights those games that we want referees to sign up for first. |
 |
Other helpful hints |
|
Searching for more than one category
Searching for multiple dates, game times, or locations.
-
There are two features that help you display multiple dates, times, or locations. In the selection box, you will see one entry that is a straight line (-------). If you select this option, it means "show me all records".
-
The other useful feature is next to the date, game time, and location boxes. The default is a [ --- ] but if you click on the drop down, you will find that you can select [ > ] or [ < ]. Suppose you only wanted to display games that are at 11am or earlier. Click on [11:20 am] in the time box and then [<] in the modifier box. Note that the modifier is [< LESS THAN] not [<= LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO]. That is why you must pick the next larger time, etc.
Above each game listed is a category link [ e.g. U10G]
