Mini-Soccer Laws of the Game

 

Mini Soccer is the version of football for players under the age of 10 years. It has its own Laws of the Game, which are similar to, but different from, mainstream 11-a-side football.

 
It is extremely popular: about a third of youth football (i.e. soccer for people under the age of 18 years) takes the form of Mini Soccer. For more details of Mini Soccer, please CLICK HERE
 
At the moment, there is no specific Mini Soccer Referee qualification. London Football Association is involved in the piloting of a Course with a view to providing a specific Mini Soccer Referee qualification for parents and club officials, etc., who regularly officiate in Mini Soccer. 
 
This Course is being piloted with the assistance of local Mini Soccer providers. Further details will be publicised if the pilot scheme goes well and the FA agrees officially to recognise the qualifications of candidates who complete the Course successfully. 
 

The Mini Soccer Laws of the Game Course, whilst not leading to a refereeing qualification, outlines the philosophy of Mini Soccer and the importance of understanding the needs of children in football. The Course covers the role of the Referee in Mini Soccer and the Laws of Mini Soccer.

The Mini Soccer Laws of the Game Course is of three hours duration and is normally held on one evening. There is no examination but candidates will receive an Attendance Certificate, which will be valid for two years.

Mini Soccer Laws of the Game Training Courses are arranged in conjunction with local providers of Mini Soccer as and when demand requires.
