The U.S. Soccer Referee Report is to be used by referees to file an official game report. Complete and submit this form to the appropriate competition authorities (e.g., local league, tournament director, cup coordinator, etc.) as directed.

The U.S. Soccer Supplemental Referee Report is to be used in addition to the U.S. Soccer Referee Report for instances of referee assault, referee abuse, dismissal of team officials, sending-off offenses, serious injuries, game abandonment, etc...

To assist referees in completing the reports, U.S. Soccer Federation Referee Program Report Codes for Cautionable and Sending-Off Offenses are available.  Use these codes when completing a U.S. Soccer Referee Report and/or U.S. Soccer Supplemental Referee Report.

The Fourth Officials Log should be used when the sanctioning competition authority request it.

Each of these documents are available in PDF form.  See "Related Links" on this web page.

In addition to submitting the report to the appropriate competition authorities, reports MUST be submitted to reports@kyreferee.com.

Reports must be filed with 48 hours of the match.
