This Month in History: July
On July 10
th
, 1999, the U.S. Women's Soccer team went on to beat China in overtime after 120 scoreless minutes. As the final minutes ended, the China team had a chance to win it as they had a corner kick on the U.S. end of the field. As the corner kick came across the middle, a China forward headed it right towards the goal. As the ball had passed the U.S. goalie, a U.S. defender was standing on the goal line and headed it out for the save. This eventually sent the game into overtime for the shootout.
It was a 4-4 tie, after the U.S. goalie had made an amazing save. The last U.S. women to shoot was Brandi Chastain. As Brandi took her steps back, she had her eyes on the prize, which came so surreal after she netted the shot. She aimed for the upper right corner and took the shot. As it passed the Chinese goalie and sank into the net, she fell to her knees with great excitement. After a few seconds she got up to celebrate with the rest of the U.S. team as they won their second World Cup.

Laws of the Game versus Emotion: The Referee's Conundrum ...
In Kansas State Cup matches earlier this month, the Referee coaches had the opportunity to review some calls with coaches, players, fans and the Referees. In every case the conundrum was the Referee making a decision on the Laws of the Game versus the emotion of the other people. Let's look at a couple of examples:
-
The Defender made a dangerous, studs up tackle to the leg of the Attacker. The Referee's interpretation of the Law was that this tackle endangered the safety of the opponent. Their decision was a Red Card and Send Off.
-
The player (an Attacker) was going after the ball. The Defender positioned himself between the Attacker and the ball. The Attacker grabbed the Defender's shoulder and pulled him down to the ground. The Referee blew the whistle to indicate the foul. The Attacker then stepped on the Defender's chest. The Referee's decision moved from a "reckless" foul to violent conduct. The Red Card was shown
Reviews of the incidents and conversations with the Referees confirmed that the decisions were consistent with the Laws of the Game.
Should emotion influence the way a Referee enforces the Laws of the Game? The answer is an emphatic NO! There is a reason why Assignors work hard to select and assign "neutral" officials to a match. You really see this at work during the World Cup. You don't see officials who are citizens of a country working matches where their country is playing. The fans - that is a different story.
Was Spain guilty of committing fouls that resulted in Penalty Kicks when the played the United States in the Round of 16? If  you were cheering for Spain, the fouls weren't worthy of the Penalty Kick decision. If you were cheering for the United States, then a foul is a foul, and these were the right calls. The Referee, applying the Laws of the Game, decided for the Penalty Kick. Did she have an effective position to see the contact and to make the call? Look at the picture from this match. You can she was definitely in an effective position to see the play, in fact in the best position you could want.
As we get ready for the Fall season, understand the conundrum your Referees face on each call. If they are working hard and are in a good position to see the play, don't yell at them. Referees don't always make the call the way the fans (or some of the fans) want, but we do train them and assign them to take away emotion and keep their focus on the Laws of the Game.
See you at the fields this Fall! Thank you in advance for adding logic to your emotion.

Referee Corner:
Changes to the process of becoming a certified US Soccer Referee...
U.S. Soccer has been investing in our Referee Development program. They have recently announced some major changes to Referee Grades, to the way we run the instructional part of becoming a new referee, and to the way Referee licenses are granted. These changes will happen on July 1, 2019. I wanted to highlight some of these changes in this month's Referee Corner.
Referee Grades:
To be more consistent with the advancement path in the rest of the world, U.S. Soccer will be renaming the path for US soccer Referees. Here is the new path:
For those who want to join the ranks of Heartland Certified Referees, you will now start at the Grassroots level.
Another major change by U.S. Soccer is that Referee Candidates must be 13 years old to certify. This change takes place on July 1, 2019.
If you are over 13 (and parents will fit this demographic) you are good to go as a Referee candidate.
Another change is the introduction of a new online US Soccer "Grassroots" Referee Course for new Referees. For those who have been wondering when the new classes will be announced, we are letting you know that we have delayed announcing the dates for the "new referee" classes due to the changes to the educational system. The process of becoming a new Referee will be highlighted on the
Kansas Referee website
in the next week or so.
Under the new offering you will only have to attend a classroom session for only one day because the new referee will do much of the learning online. For those registering in Kansas, the other benefit is that the cost will be reduced by $10.
So continue to watch this space and sign up as soon as the dates are posted.

Mark Alford has been coming into your home as morning news anchor for 21 years. The trusted face and voice of Kansas City is a strong supporter of youth soccer and has donated his time and talents to Heartland Soccer Association over the years.
"Mark Alford has been an enthusiastic supporter of our youth soccer
community and we are excited to have Mark Alford, the team leader of
Vortexkc/Chartwell as the "Preferred Realtor of Heartland Soccer."
explained Shane Hackett, Executive Director. "Mark continues to emcee
many of soccer events throughout the year and has a passion for kids and

home."
Mark is a multimillion dollar producer, marketing and selling homes from $2.5 million dollars, down to $67,000.

And it's because of Mark Alford's dedication, experience, passion and
CONNECTION with youth soccer and the Kansas City Metro that Heartland Soccer Association is proud to name Vortexkc as our "Preferred Realtor."
"I'm deeply honored to take on this role", says Alford. "Heartland Soccer

Heartland Soccer Association is excited to announce the addition of another fall tournament to the lineup. The inaugural Midwest All Boys Tournament will be held at the new Olathe Soccer Complex September 27-29, 2019.
This new tournament is a companion to Heartland Soccer's Midwest All Girls Tournament, which brings in more than 300 teams each fall. The Midwest All Boys Tournament will be one of six tournaments this upcoming season; namely, The Fall Kick Off Challenge, Heartland Midwest Classic, Midwest All Girls, ALDI Heartland Girls Invitational and ALDI Heartland Boys Invitational.
"With the success of all our tournaments, it really is no surprise that we added another," said Shane Hackett, Heartland Soccer Executive Director. "It's a great opportunity for teams to compete against compatible skilled level teams from all around the Midwest."
The tournament will feature multiple levels of play and is expected to bring in boys U8-U19 teams from throughout the Midwest. All games will be played at the Olathe Soccer Complex.
The Olathe Soccer Complex is one of the nation's newest, finest youth soccer facilities. The complex includes 9 tournament-quality synthetic turf fields in a central location of Olathe, Kansas.
"We are so incredibly lucky to have such beautiful facilities here in the Kansas City area. Watching the development of the Olathe Soccer Complex come to fruition has been extremely exciting not just for Heartland, but for the entire soccer community. We can't wait to get cleats on the fields this fall."

Congratulations to the U.S. Women's Soccer Team
on winning their 4th World Cup!
Over 10,000 fans packed the Power and Light district, as The U.S. Women's National Soccer Team defeated the Netherlands 2-0, claiming its fourth World Cup title. The topic of soccer's popularity in the US has often been discussed in recent years as numbers show a stark increase in both youth participation and viewing interest. Kansas City has been at the forefront of changing public perception of the sport. Proving that fact once again, KC drew in one of the biggest watch parties in the country.
We, at Heartland Soccer, are so incredibly proud of the USWNT and the role models they have become to our youth. As our beloved sport continues to grow, we are beyond honored to be such an integral part of the Kansas City culture. KC is the soccer capital of the USA and we can't wait to watch that passion continue to grow each year!

1) Registration for the 2019 fall season is now closed, how large will this season be and what can teams expect as far as competition goes?
This is the largest fall registration in the 43 year history of Heartland Soccer. The largest growth in league play has been from outside the Kansas City area as teams and clubs continue to join to play our local teams and regional competition. Our world class turf facilities are a draw as well as the vast competition at all levels of play including recreational divisions. This will be our first season where all our games will be played on turf.
2) There are multiple fall tournaments, which one is your favorite and why?
It's tough to choose a single favorite but I am very partial to the Midwest All Girls. I have four daughters and have lots of great memories as a coach and a dad. The HIT Tournaments to close out the season are tops too. With a boys and girls weekend, we average 400+ teams a weekend from 16 states and Canada.
3) Why should someone look into becoming a ref for the fall season?
We have an incredible soccer community here in KC. I often refer to it as an ecosystem. Players, Coaches, Families, Facilities and Referees. Over the years, we've grown the game. More kids are playing at all ages. We've been fortunate to build more world class turf soccer fields here than anywhere else in the world. Right now, we need more referees. Our typical referee is someone that plays or has played the game here in KC and wants to be involved in another way. The pay is great especially for teenagers which is the bulk of our referee pool. If you are thinking about referring or have a child that would like to learn, we have mentors and classes for certification. Please join us.
4) What have you and your staff spent the summer doing?
As a parent, the summer is our only time off for soccer. These few weeks seem to fly by. The Heartland Staff doesn't get a summer break. In addition to registration for league and tournaments, we have seeding and scheduling that is in full swing.
5) The 5K run is set for the end of July. Why does Heartland host this run and why should someone participate? Will you be running in it this year? The 5k run was created several years ago as a way for all of us to get together outside of soccer. Coaches thought it would also give players a chance to do a little preseason conditioning as well. All the proceeds go toward supporting healthy athletes and our youth referee development programs. I don't know if you can call what I will be doing as running. I will participate. I will finish but not sure if you would call in running.

The Coaches Corner:
Blues set up in the bottom square to play a 4x2 rondo. After 5 successful passes, they switch the ball into the top square. The 2 wide players and the 2 defending players all move to either support or defend in the top square where play continues. If the defenders win the ball, they switch with the players that lost possession of the ball.

Dear All,
We hope you have all enjoyed the great showings by our National teams in the last couple of weeks. Winning yet another World Cup is phenomenal!!
We have finished seeding for the 2019 Fall season! We tried to accommodate everyone's requests and tried to make every division as competitive as possible.
Scheduling is now underway. Final Schedules posted July 24th, after 5PM.
We do have some new FIFA rules that will be coming into place during this Fall season. Please see below and be patient as the referees will be implementing them in the youth games. The main ones being.....
-
At a goal kick and a free kick for the defending team in their own penalty area, the ball is in play when it is "kicked and moved", i.e., it can be played before it leaves the penalty area.
-
For defensive walls, attacking team players must be at least 1 meter away from the defensive wall
-
On Penalty Kicks, the goal keeper has to have one foot on the line
-
On dropped balls, the ball will be dropped for one player of the team that last touched the ball at the point of the last touch. All other players must be at least 4.5 yards away.
-
Deliberate handball remains an offense. There are some additional instruction when handling, even if accidental, will be a free kick.
-
On the coin toss at the start of the match, the team that wins the toss can now choose to take the kick off or which goal to attack.
Enjoy the rest of the summer and we hope to see you all on the fields soon
Sincerely,
Heartland Staff

July Health Tip:
Fun Moves for Better Agility
Agility, or the ability to react quickly to change without losing your balance, is an important skill not only for playing sports, but also for everyday living.
Strength training helps improve agility, but so do balance and coordination exercises. Simple moves include standing on one foot, standing on tiptoe and walking heel to toe.
Specific activities that boost agility:
Yoga
Tai chi
Ladder and hurdle drills
Jumping rope
A great do-anywhere exercise is controlled marching in place. Lift your right arm overhead as you lift your left leg, bending the knee at a 90-degree angle. Hold for three to five seconds, then switch sides. Continue alternating arms and legs for a total of three to five minutes.
For better agility and coordination, here are three more exercises that will help: First, toss a small, soft ball from one hand to another, keeping your eyes on the ball at all times. For added difficulty do this as you balance on one leg, lifting the other leg by bending the knee at a 90-degree angle. Do 10 tosses, reverse legs and repeat.
Next, bounce a small agility ball against a wall and catch it, first with two hands, then with your dominant hand and finally with your non-dominant hand. The ball will bounce in different directions, requiring quick action. Be sure to do this in an open space to avoid running into any furniture.
Finally, blow up two balloons in different colors. Tap them in the color order of your choice to keep them in the air. For added difficulty, tap one, do a squat and then tap the other -- you'll need to move fast to keep them afloat. Remember to always tap in the same color order, not whichever one is closest to you.
HCA Midwest Health is the official healthcare provider for Heartland Soccer Association and we work with parents and coaches to keep athletes safe and on the field of play year round, learn more about our services at
www.hcamidwest.com
The American Council on Exercise has more detail on these and other exercises to improve agility.

Papa J
ohn's Heartland Referee Spotlight:
Q&A with Daron and Duncan:
When did you start reffing?
Spring 2018
What made you decide to get certified to referee?
Daron:
For 10 years, I had been volunteering for our club and coaching my boys in their early years. With both playing competitive now (and with better coaches than I), it was time for a new place to help out and was blown away at the demand for referees, even in the Soccer Capital. I thought it might be a good place to pitch in to help keep the game safe and fair while spending some more time with my oldest as he was about to start high school.
Duncan: I decided to start reffing because I complain about the refs a lot and I wanted to try to be a good referee that people don't have to complain about.
What is your favorite part about reffing?
Daron:
The challenge. Passing the test isn't hard. Really getting good is where it takes some work and I have a lot of respect for the really good ones. I won't say I'm there yet, as I always want to be better, but it's gratifying to learn from each game and apply it in the next to make that game better for the kids on the field.
Duncan: My favorite part about reffing is being in control of the game and being responsible for making the calls myself.
What is a life lesson you feel you have learned from reffing?
Daron:
Work hard, give it all you have and don't worry too much about anything else you hear from the peanut gallery.
Duncan: I learned you have to speak up for yourself when anyone is behaving inappropriately, including parents.
What level of referee to you aspire to be?
Daron:
I'd like to referee at State Cup in the next couple of years.
Do you play soccer?
Daron: I never did, but competed in several other sports. I fell into coaching my son's kindergarten team when there weren't enough coaches for all the kids and dove into learning all I could about how to turn a squirrely group of five-year-olds into soccer players. I think most of them had a good experience in the process. All their parents still speak to me, at least.
Duncan: I play for OPSC during the club season and SME during the high school season. I have played soccer for 10 years.
Do you participate in any sports/activities/clubs/ youth groups/ community service?
Daron: I've volunteered for our club for 10 years now, half as a rec coach and half as a board member. Our club is one of the lowest cost options around and I hope I'm contributing to kids getting to play high-level soccer at a price their parents can afford. That's certainly not meant to knock any other club or sport. There's just a need for that option, even in Johnson County.
Duncan: I participate in the youth group at Country Club Christian Church. We serve meals at a church in northeast KC once a month and I just got back from Ecuador where we helped fix up a daycare center.
Do you have another job in addition to reffing?
Daron: I'm the SVP of Marketing for a pharmacogenomics services company (subset of genetic testing related to pharmacy).
What was the last book you read?
Daron: IAFB Laws of the Game (the soccer bible). It's a page-turner and should be required reading for anyone who likes to coach the yellow team from the sidelines.
What types of movies do you like?
Daron: I run the range from indie dialogue-driven flicks to aliens blowing stuff up. I'll admit the last two were X-Men: Dark Phoenix and Detective Pikachu with the kids. Don't judge. They prefer aliens blowing stuff up and the best part is them still wanting to hang out with me.
Duncan: Action and Marvel movies
What is your favorite sports team?
Sporting KC. Easy.
