What happens if you are hit with a ball in soccer as a referee?
In most cases play continues. If it was done on intentionally, it depends on the referee but sometimes a yellow maybe even a red card.
How old do you have to be to become a certified soccer referee?
It usually depends on the soccer league you are reffing for, but most of the time you have to be in high school. The age limit is 10. this is to referee a u-8 game. Also you must pass the certification exam. Well, in my town you can be 10 to referee a soccer game. I am 10 and I can referee in Wisconsin.
How are scores in soccer recorded?
The referee keeps a record of the score, as do other officials. There is also a scoreboard at most venues. As scoring in soccer is low, it is not difficult to keep scores recorded accurately compared to other sports.
Why are referees called referees?
Originally, soccer was played under the supervision of team captains, and the captains would have to agree on any points related to the game, such as when a goal is scored, a foul is committed, and when time has expired. Sometimes, however, the captains could not agree. A neutral person would be present at competitive games in order to resolve disputes that the captains could not resolve themselves.Thus, the captains would refer to this neutral party, making him the referee (much the same way that a person who is employed is an employee). In this early stage of soccer history, the referee had no power or authority except when referred to by the captains, in which case the referee's decision would be final on that point only.While other sports employed umpires to decide on all points of the games, the soccer referee was a passive arbiter. As soccer evolved and became more competitive, the need was seen to have an umpire on the field to decide on all points, as other sports did, and so the referee moved from the sideline to the field of play, first with a handkerchief, later with a whistle, and most recently with penalty cards and assistants with flags.This evolution of the referee followed with other sports as well, though some sports (such as Cricket and Baseball) retain the umpire nomenclature, and some (such as volleyball) use both a referee and an umpire.

What would the referee do if a substitute ran onto the field before the referee waived the player on or said it was okay to come onto the field in a soccer game?
You would be issued a blue card 2 min for to many men and maybe an unsportsmanlike conduct. Blue cards are shown in the Indoor soccer leagues. If this is a match at the professional level (MLS, EUFA, English Premier, etc), most likely the substitute would be shown the yellow card for entering the field without the referee's permission. The college level referee would most likely have the same response. In the high school leagues, there tends to be a little more leniency. Perhaps a verbal warning would suffice. In the AYSO level of play, there is even more leniency. I referee with AYSO, club soccer, high school and indoor. But remember, it is the discretion of the referee at the time the substitute enters the field as to what he decides to do. There are a lot of factors to consider before showing a card to a player. Hope this helps.
Minimum players in a soccer game?
You start with 11 players, you must have a minimum of 7 players on at the pitch or the match is ended by the referee.
How do soccer officials act?
Hopefully, they act professionally, athletically, and kind-but-stern. While some referees have a predisposition to certain behaviors, the temperature of the game (how aggressive it is, etc) is often the biggest factor. A friendly, respectable game will attract a kind, lenient referee. A hard-fought dirty game will arouse the ire of most any referee. Off the field, soccer referees generally act like any member of the rest of the population.
How do officials control the game in soccer?
The referee controls the game by using his whistle to stop (and sometimes restart) play. He also is the official timekeeper and scorekeeper, whose decisions are final. The referee carries a red card and a yellow card to announce sanctions applied for misconduct. Finally, the referee has two (or more) assistants who advise the referee on things they have seen so that the referee may take action, if needed. In most cases (except in international matches where there may be a language barrier), the referee will use his voice to warn players of poor behavior, announce advantage or the lack of a foul, and other points to keep the game flowing smoothly.

Can you correct the sentence 'BCB services are appealing the referee decision.'?
Most likely it should read "...referee's decision."
Can a parent talk to the other team's players on the field directly in soccer?
The laws of the game do not address spectator behaviour and referees have no direct authority over them, however if a referee considers that a spectator (parent or not) is causing disruption to the game he can usually ask the home team officials to intervene. (In most soccer jurisdictions, behaviour of the spectators is the responsibility of the home team.) If the disruption from a spectator or spectators is particularly bad and/or cannot be controlled, the referee has the authority to abandon the game.
