UPCOMING TRAINING:
Subject: Advantage & DOGSO – 2027 Details
With recent updates to the US Soccer Laws of the Game (LOTG), questions have naturally come up regarding proper match enforcement. The area causing the most confusion involves Denying an Obvious Goal-Scoring Opportunity (DOGSO), specifically when to issue a red card, a yellow card, or no card at all based on field position and advantage application.
To clear up this confusion, we are hosting a special online training session next week:
Thursday Sep 24th @ 7:30 PM (Zoom)
This session will feature updated video clips and clear explanations of current LOTG interpretations to help you make confident decisions on the field.
We hope to see you there! Click below to register for the training session.
