‘Not my turn to report the match result as we were away today, but I must pass on a note of congratulation to the referee.

We have never had a character like him before, and he was brilliant in speaking to the players both before AND after the match which, despite our 10 players losing 9-3 was an excellent sporting game…

The referee maintained perfect control, placed himself ideally and helped ensure all the children enjoyed a smooth and flowing game of football. At U11s age with the players relatively new to 11-a-side rules, he even helped them learn by explaining clearly the rules when a penalty had to be taken-unfortunately against my team, but accepted well by them.

As my adult assistant was new to the job, the ref even took time to explain carefully what was  expected before kick-off and this helped ensure we now have another helper who will be confident to do the job for us again.

Most games are good, but this was exceptional -it is great to have such an enjoyable Saturday morning.’

‘Just a note to thank you for your help  with our football competition on Saturday…I felt the whole tournament benefitted from the professional way you carried out your role and several of the visiting staff commented on the helpful and friendly but firm approach you gave to each game.’

‘Can I just say what a brilliant referee we had for our U11s’ Hampshire Cup game Chandlers Ford vs Boscombe Albion. He was firm, fair and the game flowed-absolutely excellent! We couldn’t sign his praises highly enough, so I know you have to appoint refs but we would be very happy to have him for all our  home games. His name was Andrew Peterson.’
