At PAYSL, we foster a culture of respect and deference to our referees.

• Players accept referee calls and judgments without complaint or protest. They shake hands with refs after every game.

• Parents do not communicate with referees. Yelling at refs is not tolerated. Any concerns or complaints should be handled with coaches.

• Coaches communicate respectfully with referees as needed and escalate with the Head of Referees for the league as needed.
