This Month in History: September
First Live Televised Soccer Match, September 10th, 1960: 

The first live televised soccer match was on September 10, 1960. The match was played between Blackpool and Bolton Wanderers at Bloomfield Road. The following planned broadcast was cancelled after Tottenham Hotspur refused permission for the ITV to cover its game against Aston Villa. When the Football League demanded a dramatic increase in player appearance payments the ITV pulled out of the deal.
The first televised league highlights started in 1962, when Anglia Television launched Match of the Week, which showed highlights of matches from the East Anglia region. In 1964, the Football League agreed a deal with the BBC to show edited highlights of First Division games. Match of the Day began in August 1964 wh en it showed the game between Arsenal and Liverpool.
The first World Cup coverage on television took place in 1966. Two years later ITV regions started broadcasting its own highlights programs. Eventually, the entire ITV network showed The Big Match on Sunday. It was clear that there was potentially a large audience for live football games and in 1983 ITV obtained a two-year contract from the Football League to show live matches. There were clearly large sums of money available for showing live First Division games. The top clubs felt that they deserved a greater percentage of this money and Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Everton threatened to form their own Super League.
In 1992 it was agreed to establish the FA Premier League. The new league was almost identical to the old Football League Division One. The main change was that its clubs would keep all TV revenues. Sky TV, owned by Rupert Murdoch, signed a five-year contract to show many these games live. In 1997 this contract was renewed.

The "Quote" of the Month:
From Shane Hackett, Heartland Executive Director:

"Earlier this week, I was thinking about how much I have enjoyed the game of soccer with each one of my kids over the years. I've  been lucky enough to coach all of them and have time togethe r on the field, practice, games and the car rides to and from. I have very specific wonderful memories of each one of them.  When Mia Hackett started playing around 4 years old, Neala Sullivan Hackett would usually put her hair into  pig tails. She was so tiny the
uniform shorts would overlap with her shingards and socks. The kit engulfed her. She is omnidextrous and never favored a foot so at an early age, she could trap, pass and shoot with both feet. I remember one particular game when I subbed her in, all the mom's on the sideline were saying "oh, how cute! She's adorable!" She was at least a foot shorter than every other kid on the field and we were still playing co-ed. She proceeded to steal the ball and dribble through everyone, scoring goal after goal. (it's 3v3 with no goalies). The comments turned from "oh how cute" to "Oh my god, she is incredible." It makes a soccer coach proud and leaves a dad with many a wonderful memory."

Q&A with Executive Director Shane Hackett:

It's only the middle of September and Heartland already has two tournaments in the books, the Fall Kick Off Challenge and the Heartland Midwest Classic, how was the turnout for both of these tournaments? 
Both the Fall Kick Off Challenge and the Heartland Midwest Classic saw teams from around Kansas travel into town to play our local competition, on world class turf fields and enjoy our city. 

Up next is the Midwest All Girls Tournament, what makes a girls-only tournament so special? 
The MAG is one of my favorite tournaments.  Maybe because I have four daughters and have so many memories as both a coach and a dad.  We just finished registration and this year's MAG will be the largest in history. We are looking forward to a full weekend of GIRL POWER!!!

Registration for HIT is now open, why should a team compete in this end-of-the-year showdown? 
The HIT tournament is held over two weekends and is one of the largest tournaments in the country bringing in teams from 16 states, it is considered the best end-of-the-season tournaments in the Midwest.  

Any updates on how the Olathe Soccer Complex is coming along? 
We have been working hard on the new Olathe Soccer Complex.  Shaw Turf started installation the first of September and we will do a soft opening on 6 fields on the first weekend of October. The full complex will open in
Spring 2019.

Health Tip:
5 Ways to Prepare for Your Sports Season
If you've ever played competitive sports, you know starting a new season means a lot of hard work and practice. (It's a good thing sports is fun.) It's also normal to feel a little nervous about starting, especially if this is your first season.

Here are a few ways to put yourself at ease and make sure you're ready for the first day:

Get in Shape
Start by writing an exercise plan if you don't already have one. Schedule specific workout times during the week to help you stick with it. Ask your coach, gym teacher, or trainer for advice when writing your plan. Also, keep an exercise log. Write down how long you work out and what activity you did (cardio, lifting, etc.). That way you can keep track of different types of activities so you can mix things up (like running one day, strength training another).

Check your Gear
Check your gear. Ask your coach if you're not sure what you need. New equipment can be pricey, so think about using some secondhand gear if it's available. Brothers, sisters, friends, and siblings of friends can be great sources of used equipment. Just make sure it's very clean and still safe to use. You could ask your coach to take a look at it before the first day of practice. If you're a returning player, take out all of your equipment, try it on, and make sure it still fits and works.

Consider a Sports Camp
Sports camps can help new and experienced players brush up on skills before the season starts. College players, coaches, or other professionals usually teach the camps. Most include drill sessions, then scrimmages toward the end of the day. Drill work helps improve skills and scrimmaging with other campers lets you apply those skills in real-game situations. Scrimmages also can help you get the feel of playing on a team if it's something you're not used to. Many schools and colleges offer various sports camps during the summer and on the weekends during the school year. If camps aren't your thing, organizing a group of people to play a weekly game can be a great way to practice.

Just make sure to take 2 days off per week from any single sport and 1 day off per week from all organized sports. Also, take at least 2 months off each year from any particular sport, otherwise you're at a higher risk for an overtraining or overuse injury.

See your Doctor
Your school or team will probably require a sports physical before allowing you to participate. Because everyone needs to get checked at the beginning of the season, doctors tend to be busy those times of year. So ask your mom or dad to set up an appointment early on. That gives the doctor plenty of time to fill out your paperwork so you can start your sport on time. If you wear glasses, consider visiting your eye doctor to check your prescription.

Set Realistic Goals
Before your season starts, consider setting a few goals, such as improving a specific skill like dribbling or passing the ball. Just making the team or getting in shape are great goals as well. Be sure to write down your goals and discuss them with your parent or coach - they can support you. If you reach your goal, set some new goals next season. Just having goals can be a great motivator!

   Papa J ohn's Heartland Referee Spotlight:

Joshua started reffing when he was just ten years old. He said that he decided to get certified because "I enjoyed being a ref and wanted to have the ability to ref more games." Joshua also said that his favorite part of being a ref was being a mentor to the younger referees. When asked about a life lesson learned from reffing Joshua said "I feel I have learned to be responsible; be on time, be dressed appropriately and have your materials, which builds responsibility". Joshua says he aspires to be a World Cup referee.

Joshua has played soccer since he was just three years old and he currently plays high school soccer for Olathe South High school and club soccer for TOCA FC. He also participates in high school bowling, youth group and volunteering at the Olathe Christian Church and Mission Southside. These activities occupy most of Joshua's time so he does not currently have another job on top of reffing.

When not busy, Joshua takes time for relaxation and leisure. The last book Joshua read was "The Purple Hibiscus," which he read for Honors English summer homework. "It is a book about a family in Nigeria and my favorite part was when they went to visit their aunt".

When discussing movies he stated "I like action and comedy movies and the last movie I saw was Ant Man and The Wasp. My favorite part of the movie was when the Ant Man got really big and really worn out". Joshua said his favorite sports team is Manchester United.
 
Dear All,

We hope you are having a great Fall 2018 season so far. We have seen some great games already and know that it will continue through the next couple of months.

Coaches and team administrators, please remember to go and grab your player cards after each game. Often the referees will bring them back to you, but there are times when they are running to other games when they won't have time to return them. The cards are kept in the plastic tubs at the corner of the field where the referees congregate. Please ensure you have them before you leave the complex.

We are very excited that in the month of October we will be hosting games at the brand new Soccer complex in Olathe. If you see OSC on your schedule then that is what it is referring to. They are currently laying the turf and it is looking fantastic. We are so excited to be adding more world class surfaces to the ones we already have. It's a great time to be a youth soccer player in KC!!!

Thanks, as always for your support of the league.

The Referee Corner
Law 9:  The Ball In and Out of Play and Heading by U11 and below:

Ask yourself the question: have you ever shouted at an Assistant Referee because they said the ball was not out and you thought it was?  What direction do the Laws of the Game give to the Assistant Referee on when the Ball is out of play? That is our topic for this month's Referee Corner.
Law 9 is another short law.  

It says the following:
  • The ball is out of play when :
    • It has wholly passed over the goal line or touch line either on the ground or in the air
    • Play has been stopped by the Referee
This means that all of the ball went over the line.  If part of the ball (even a little bit) is on the line the ball is in play.  This is different than football or basketball. In those sports a ball or foot on the line is considered out of play.  In soccer this is not the case. The Assistant Referees are on the touch line and are coached to follow the ball all the way to the goal line.  This means they have the best line of sight to make this decision. Interesting when fans at midfield challenge the call of the Assistant Referee at the Goal line.  
The Referee stopping play is less controversial.  The Referee stops play by blowing the whistle. The ball is considered out of play immediately on the whistle.  If there is a foul and the Referee blows the whistle and the ball continues into the goal, is it a goal? According to the Laws of the Game it is not.  Every Referee has at least one story about blowing the whistle while the ball was trickling into the goal. NOT A GOAL.
  • The ball is in play at all other times, including when it rebounds of a match official, goalpost, crossbar or corner flag and remains on the field of play.
This, of course, means that the match official must be on the field.  
Law 9 is an easier Law to understand.  Part 2 of this month's article builds on Law 9. It has to do with "when does the Referee blow his/her whistle?".  Referees are required to blow the whistle to start and stop play.
  • Starting play could be at the beginning of a match (the kickoff), after a substitution, or when there has been a foul and the Referee is setting the wall.
  • Stopping play means that a foul or infraction has taken place.  Fouls result in Direct Free Kicks (we will review the 12 fouls later in the fall).  Infractions (there are 8 in the Laws of the Game) and Offside violations result in Indirect Free Kicks.  It is also used by the Referee to stop play for any another reason not specified in the Laws of the Game.  This includes injuries and in the United States deliberate heading at specified age groups.
Is heading illegal in the Laws of the Game?   The answer is NO.  However, the United States Soccer Federation has determined that for safety reasons heading will not be allowed in U11 and below matches.  Their directive is that deliberate heading will result in the match being stopped (the Referee blowing the whistle) and that the restart will be an Indirect Free Kick against the team doing the deliberate heading at the spot where the heading took place.
This directive has created some confusion.  Let's look at some examples to determine the correct restart:
  1. A player gets hit in the head by the ball in the run of play.  The Referee blows the whistle to stop play. The coach is called on to attend to the player.  
    1. Was it a foul? NO  
    2. Was it a deliberate head ball? NO
    3. Was it for a player down (injury)?  Yes, so the restart would be a drop ball
  2. The attacking team sends a pass in the air into the penalty area towards one of their forwards.  The forward heads the ball towards goal and it goes in.
    1. Since the forward DELIBERATELY headed the ball, the Referee should blow the whistle and disallow the goal.  The restart would be an Indirect Free Kick coming out.
  3. The attacking team sends a pass in the air into the penalty area.  In this situation a defender deliberate heads the ball to end the attack.
    1. Since the defender DELIBERATELY headed the ball, the Referee should blow the whistle and the restart would be an Indirect Free Kick going in.  The spot would be where the heading occurred unless it was in the goal area (6-yard box which would result in the ball being placed on the 6-yard box line).
  4. The attacking team sends a pass in the air into the penalty area.  In this situation a defender deliberates heads the ball, but it still goes into the goal.
    1. The deliberate heading is a fact, but the ball went into the goal.  In this case, the goal should be allowed, and the player could be cautioned.
As I said, there are several decisions a Referee team must make in the run of play.  These decisions are based on the Laws of the Game or USSF directives. They are not always easy to make, but when you look at the decisions you can see they are consistent and support the letter and spirit of the Law.
We will review fouls in the next article.  And, please support our new Referees. It is win/win for you and for the League.

The Coaches Corner:
The Dutch Cross


From Dutch for Total Team Training - This drill is a variation of a drill done in Holland by all their youth teams.  It involves much more movement and coordination and gives many more progressions, as you will see in this section. Players must coordinate and work on the timing of runs and passes for this to be successful.  This variation begins to build in more movement and coordination and requires timing. It is great for working on technical passing and basic movements to learn how to check to and away from the ball.
