January - Dan Wybo
Q1. Current Age? 56 Q2. First year as a referee? 1980 Q3. What is your most memorable experience as a referee? I have been invited to the prestigious Virginia Beach Soccer Tournament in USA several times. The caliber of soccer is very high. My most memorable experience as a referee was doing a number of finals in that tournament. The positive attitude of the players, coaches and fans really made you feel like you were respected and appreciated. Q4. What is your least memorable experience as a referee? Recently, during the 2007 season, after the administration of a second caution, a player spat in my face. The ramifications and subsequent suspension following that incident proved to be my least memorable experience as a referee. Q5. If you had the ability to change any Law, what would it be? The one law that springs to mind is the ten yard law, where if players don't retreat, or a player commits dissent against a referee, we shouldn't have to caution the player or anything like that. We just automatically move the ball up ten yards closer. That would cut out a lot of dissent, a lot of arguing, because captains would duly sort them out and coaches would sort them out. I think that would help a lot on the problem of dissent. I think there's too much dissent in soccer. In rugby you don't see five players around the referee if he's given a decision or if he's taken a player off. I think it's only because of player's own discipline, or they've been coached to do it. But I think if we advance the ball an extra 10 yards instead of cautioning it would stop people back-chatting and showing dissent towards a referee. Q6. What advice would you give to those just starting out as a referee? For those just starting out, seek the advice and council of an experienced empathetic mentor to help you learn the proper way. I was extremely fortunate to have Mr. Robert Callahan as my mentor and teacher. Q7. Any other comments? nbsp; As a side note to the problem of dissent, I would like all the leagues who empower coaches to properly expect from their coaches to adhere to a high standard of conduct in the Technical area . This proper conduct is called "Responsible Behaviour" and is vital to maintaining the "spirit of the game". It is very sad and indeed very unprofessional to see Coaches heap dissent on referee's from the sidelines. It's very evident that these acts of irresponsible behavior from coaches and players in the technical area bring our beautiful game into disrepute.

February - Andrew Wiles
Q1. Current Age? 31 Q2. First year as a referee? 1991 Q3. What is your most memorable experience as a referee? Two items immediately come to mind: (1) In 1996, I took part in the 4th Official Program in the CNSL (now called the Canadian Soccer League). My first game was working with Graham Williams and Les Wilcox at London City where the visitors were Toronto Italia featuring Lalo Maradona (younger brother of the famous Diego Maradona). Part way through the second half, Maradona dove to try to draw the foul and Graham was only a few yards away. To make the point clear that he wasn't going to put up with that, Graham moved over top of Maradona, leaned over and yelled "PLAY ON". He was substituted shortly thereafter. (2) More recently, I was assigned to the 2008 CSL semifinal match featuring the Italia Shooters and Serbian White Eagles. It was a cool October night, but it was truly an honour to work the live TV game as an Assistant referee with Yusri Rudolf in the middle, Jason Hanley and Manuel Orellana. Serbian won the game 3-0 and eventually won the final a week later. Q4. What is your least memorable experience as a referee? My least memorable experience involves a situation where I was severely verbally abused by a coach, who was also a registered referee. Referees need to remember that that they must remain professional in whatever role they are fulfilling at the time. Q5. If you had the ability to change any Law, what would it be? I don't think I would change any law, but what I would like to see is a consistent strategy towards reducing dissent applied across the province. It seems to be getting worse and it needs to be stopped. Q6. What advice would you give to those just starting out as a referee? Always be prepared, i.e. have all of your equipment with you. For example, if you are an AR for a game, make sure you have your set of flags with you, don't expect the referee to bring them. When working with an experienced referee, your time will be better spent being critiqued by the referee rather than being lectured by him about not having your equipment there. Q7. Any other comments? Remember that refereeing is supposed to be fun. Make sure it stays that way. For me, it is fun because of the people I get to hang out with while working and travelling to games.

Q1. Current Age? 28 Q2. First year as a referee? 1998 Q3. What is your most memorable experience as a referee? I have had so many memorable and fun experiences as a referee both on and off the field. As far as games go, there are two that stand out in my mind: (1) In June 2007, I was fortunate enough to be appointed as the 4th official on a friendly match between North York Astros (CSL) and the Mexico U-20 who were in Canada for the FIFA U-20 World Cup. I guess I was a little overwhelmed of the situation on game day because I wasn't much help to the referee before for the match, but once the game started it was a great atmosphere. It was a great experience to be a part of the officiating crew in an international match. (2) In October 2005, I was appointed AR2 to the CPSL Final. This was a very special appointment for me not only because it was an "all London referee crew" and I got to share the experience with my friends, but because I was trusted as a relatively inexperienced referee with a big responsibility. There were about 700 spectators in attendance which made for a good atmosphere and I'm happy to say the game ended without controversy. Q4. What is your least memorable experience as a referee? I don't remember . . . hahaha . . . I want to be careful how I answer this question because I don't necessarily want to equate "least memorable" experience with a "bad" experience. So I will tell you a little story of what happened to me in an OSL game last season . . . as play was going on, the one team was attacking up the middle of the field. A player made a pass to one of his teammates along the ground through the center of the field. Because of what I now realize was poor positioning, I found myself caught in the passing lane. As I tried to step out of the way of the ball as it came across, I looked behind me and saw a player of the defending team sliding to intercept the ball . . . the next thing I know, my feet were in the air and I landed on my back-side (for lack of a better word), did about 3 back rolls and when I came to I barely knew where I was!! I finally was able to blow my whistle and stop play until a few of the players could help me to my feet. It was embarrassing and painful at the same time. I wish I could have watched it happen because if I were a player I'm pretty sure it would have been grounds for an ejection! Q5. If you had the ability to change any Law, what would it be? Nothing immediately comes to mind. I guess I just accept the laws for what they are and try to ensure that they are carried out as best I can. Q6. What advice would you give to those just starting out as a referee? I would say don't be afraid to make mistakes, be open to criticism, and perhaps above all, have a sense of humour. This will take you a long way. Q7. Any other comments? Know that refereeing is not just about the time spent on the field or the money you take home at the end of the day . . . it is also about the people you meet along the way and the time you spend with them. I am fortunate enough to have met one of my best friends through refereeing, and in the end that is what I will treasure the most. | |||||||||

April - Andrew Buttigieg
Q1. Current Age? 17 Q2. First year as a referee? I began refereeing my sisters Exhibition games in London in 2004/2005. Then I began to start refereeing House League in St. Thomas thanks to Glenn Sharkey in 2005/2006 (referee coordinator). I then became an official OSA referee the next year and the rest is history, reffing every day in St. Thomas for the years after that. Q3. What is your most memorable experience as a referee? This is a tough question since it has been such a short career, but I would say being able to teach younger referees certain techniques and how to enforce different laws is my most memorable experience. I enjoy this the most since I am able to be a role model and a leader and it allows my own confidence in myself to grow. Q4. What is your least memorable experience as a referee? I don’t think there is anything I regret happening during my time as a ref! I try to turn all my mistakes into something that I learn for next time! I’m still a young referee and I’m sure I haven’t seen the worst of situations yet. Q5. If you had the ability to change any Law, what would it be? The laws are pretty straightforward and I wouldn’t change a law because they seem pretty simple and easy to remember and I wouldn’t want it to get any more difficult. I think though, if I had the power to change a DEFINITION, that I would change the definition of what is a direct free kick and what is a indirect free kick. This is mostly for the younger referees to understand more clearly how they will be dealing with each free kick and whether their hand should be up or down. I had that problem when I was younger, it took me a while to understand, but I think I have it almost perfected. Q6. What advice would you give to those just starting out as a referee? Two Words . . . TAKE CONTROL . . . there is nothing more important then taking control of a game when your in the middle. I made that mistake when I was just starting out, but the faster you take control of the pitch and enforce the rules to the best of your ability the rest of the memorizing of the rules is simple. If you don’t take control you allow coaches and players to get on your nerves far too easily and it makes you doubt the calls you are making on the field. If you take control there is no doubting and you stand behind you style of refereeing 100%. Q7. Any other comments? NEVER give up on yourself! Stay confident, stay calm and have fun! Keep the game and the traditions alive! |
May - Art Pieterman
Q1. Current Age? 40 Q2. First year as a referee? 18, reffed for 4 years and then quit, I started up again 6 years ago Q3. What is your most memorable experience as a referee? With only 5 years of being OSA certified behind me, I just started to work games as a team 2 years ago, so I don’t have any real high profile games yet to talk about, but I would have to say just last year working at the International Croatian Tournament in Tillsonburg with 32 other refs was really cool. I worked with a really good team for the day, we had a lot of fun, and the people, man, I have never been at another tournament so far where that many spectators were there. There were literally a few thousand spectators in the park, and just trying to run the line while sharing it with the fans, including drums, noisemakers, and a hand cranked siren was quite the experience. I have also worked a couple games now with Silviu Petrescu, that was pretty cool, and great learning experiences. Q4. What is your least memorable experience as a referee? Back when I was 22, I reffed a U10 boys house league game in Delaware, and after being dismissed from the game, the coach purposely waited until everybody left the parking lot after the game, and then came at me through my car window swinging while I was writing up my reports. He never actually hit me, as I was able to duck his punches and all he ended up hitting was my car door, but during the hearing after I wrote him up, he had a parent lie for him to say the incident never took place, that I had made the story up, and they just gave him a 5 game suspension. That’s when I quit. Q5. If you had the ability to change any Law, what would it be? I really couldn’t say, as I have never given any thought to it. I probably really don’t enough experience to say what needs work and what doesn’t, so I’ll leave that one to the pros. Q6. What advice would you give to those just starting out as a referee? Depending on the age, but especially the younger ones, as you get more and more experience, find yourself a mentor or a bunch of mentors, that can you can watch or work with to learn from, and hopefully watch your games as well to be able advise you on your areas of weakness. At all times, try to learn from your mistakes and always try to improve on your game. The sooner you can start working with other refs as a team, the sooner you are going to be able to improve your own games. And the more fun you will have! Q7. Any other comments? Above all, have fun, and don’t give up! At this stage in my life, I sometimes regret that I didn’t carry on with refereeing when I was younger and fitter because who knows where I could have ended up. You will always have bad games, and yes unfortunate incidents do happen, but hopefully you will be able to pick yourself up and carry on. That’s another nice thing about working as a team, as it’s been my experience that the other members of your team encourage and help you along, especially when you have had a tough game. |
June - Arthur Korbiel
Q1. Current Age? 30 Q2. First year as a referee? 1994 Q3. What is your most memorable experience as a referee? I was invited to participate in the 2009 BMO U18 National Championships. This tournament is used to look at potential National List referees. I was able to work with officials and national assessors from across Canada. Daily clinics where conducted by the CSA Director & Supervisor of Officials. The learning experience was phenomenal - I learned more in a week at this tournament, then I have my entire refereeing career. The thing that topped off the entire week was that I was assigned to the Women's Gold Medal Game as an Assistant Referee, even though I was not being considered for the National Program going into the tournament. Q4. What is your least memorable experience as a referee? My least memorable experience occurred when I was about 20 or 21 years old. I was officiating a local U14 Boys game in St. Thomas. I knew that the coaching staff for the home team would be an issue because they have caused trouble before.What was about to happen, I would of never expected. I was working alone, so I was responsible for calling offsides. I remember calling an offside on the opposite side of the field from the benches. The home team coach and assistant went crazy. They were yelling, cursing, and calling me every name in the book. They confronted me on the field, which caused me to walk away quickly - almost a light run. They kept coming after me. They broke my flag over their knee and threw it at me. Spectators and club officials had to step in to try to stop them. I ended up in the club house, and locked myself in the officials room. The coaches came after me, still yelling and cursing, and attempted to get at me in the officials room. I stayed in the room for about 20 min until things had settled down. The coaches were banned from the club, but only received a very mild suspension from the district. Q5. If you had the ability to change any Law, what would it be? There is no single Law that comes to mind, if I had the ability to change it. The one thing I would like to change about the game itself is the lack of respect towards officials. There is no other sport were officials are treated so poorly by players, coaches, and parents. Becoming a referee is not an easy task, it takes years to learn the art, and to understand the game and how to apply the laws. There is too much dissent - almost on every decision the referee makes. Coaches and players should stick to their jobs, which is coaching and playing. When have you ever heard a referee complain to a coach or player complain about their decision in the game? Q6. What advice would you give to those just starting out as a referee? If you are in refereeing for the money, don't expect to develop into a top notch referee. You will get into a routine that will give you bad habits. Refereeing has been quite a journey for me - I have had good times, and I have bad times. It can get quite frustrating at times when I just want to quit, but I am glad I stuck with it because I have worked FIFA's, Nationals, and other knowledgeable referees, and have learned a lot from everyone. Most importantly, I have made some good friends from refereeing, and working with these individuals makes it that much more enjoyable, knowing that we all challenge each other to advance to the next level. Q7. Any other comments? If you are in refereeing for the money, don't expect to develop into a top notch referee. You will get into a routine that will give you bad habits.

July - John Oliva
Q1. Current Age? 38 Q2. First year as a referee? Started in 1987 when I was 16 years old. Took 2 1/2 years off when I was 26, then started to referee again. Q3. What is your most memorable experience as a referee? It's hard to choose one memorable experiece as I have had a number of them recently. If I had to choose one, I think it would be the day I received my letter confirming acceptance to the 2009 National List of Match Officials. I remember walking around the house with the letter in my pocket for a good 1/2 hour. I couldn't open it. When I finally did and it was confirmed, it just meant a lot of hard work, dedications, and committment had finally paid off. Some others that stand out . . . Most memorable game to referee: my first middle in the USL in Vancouver with the Whitecaps taking on Puerto Rico. Most memorable game as a match official: The Zidane and Friends game where I was the 4th official. Most memorable crowd: My first experience in Montreal in front of almost 13,000 spectators. Q4. What is your least memorable experience as a referee? I don't really have any least memorable experiences that I can recall. Don't get me wrong, I have had my fair share of "bad games" but they're less and less frequent as you gain and learn from your experiences. Q5. If you had the ability to change any Law, what would it be? One of my biggest pet peeves is when the goalkeeper is trying to eat up time and has possession of the ball, at his feet, inside his penalty area. A player from the other team has to run 40 yards towards the goalkeeper, only to have him pick up the ball when he gets close. Purely a time wasting tactic, but legal according to the LOTG. Personally, what I'd like to see what they have in Futsal, once the goalkeeper has full control/possession of the ball, whether it's in his hands or at his feet, he should only be allowed 6 seconds before having to release it from his control. This would eliminate the nonsense. Q6. What advice would you give to those just starting out as a referee? Realize that being a referee is a thankless job. The only ones that appreciate what you do our there are 1) the winning team, 2) your colleagues, and 3) yourself. If you're in it to make friends with those on the field, then look for a different past time. Referee for personal satisfaction. Knowing that you did your best and recognizing your mistakes so you can learn from them are two big factors. Keep at it and don't let anyone tell you "you'll never make it". Q7. Any other comments? Set your goals and go for it. Don't quit . . . If you've reached your peak in refereeing, then let the OSA or CSA tell you when you've reached your peak and no one else. This way you know that you've gone as far as you can. Believe in yourself. Find a mentor. A mentor is not just one who has power and control, but one who is genuine and sincere to want to see you succeed. As an individual you are in control of yourself. Focus on what you have control over, such as fitness, appearance, and professionalism. Don't worry about the uncontrollable such as appointments, who's getting the "big games" and who likes or dislikes you. Control the controllable and you'll go a long way!

New OSA Referee selected to the National List of Match Officials
Please help the OSA Referee Development Committee and Department congratulate Mr. John Oliva the newest Ontario referee
to be selected to National List of Match Officials as a Referee.
From left to right, John Gray (Nova Scotia), John Oliva (Ontario), Fabrizio Romano (Alberta), Cameron Blair (Alberta).

Divison Soccer.
From left to right, Kevin Duliba (British Columbia), John Oliva (Ontario), Cameron Blair (Alberta).
May 10th Vancouver Whitecaps vs Puerto Rico Islanders at Swangard Stadium, Vancouver, BC in USL 1st Divison Soccer.
The home side won 1-0 in front of a crowd of 5023 specators. Maurice Navarro, FIFA (British Columbia) was the
4th official.
John has been working hard for many years to obtain this goal, especially this year. Through the long selection process
established in Ontario, John was assessed at least 6 times this year by Ontario assessors. John's name was then presented
to the recommendation committee in June for possible selection to be nominated to the National List of Match Officials.
The OSA Referee Development Committee in July nominated John as one of our two nominees to the National List of Match
Officials. Upon being nominated by Ontario, John continued to work with our top level assessors to prepare himself for
the potential selection to the U18 National Club Championships as a Nominated Referee. As preparation for this potential
appointment, we appointed John as the Referee for the U18 Men's Ontario Cup Final, as well as an Assistant Referee for the
Ontario Cup Men's Final. In August, the OSA was notified that our nominations was accepted, which meant that John was going
to be selected to the U18 National Club Championships. The U18 National Club Championships are the tournament that the CSA
uses to take a look at all Nominated Referees and the platform to make their decision on who gets selected to the list.
John had an excellent tournament and eventually was awarded as the referee for the Gold Medal Men's game on the Monday of
the tournament.
It is not an easy process for any referee to get to the National List of Match Officials, and especially in Ontario, with
such a strong base of referees that are all fighting for a limited number of positions. Again we would like to
congratulate John on this appointment to the National List and wish him all the best in everything he does as a National
Referee.
Regards,
Andrew Backer, Manager - Referee Development, The Ontario Soccer Association
