NCAA Soccer Rule 12.6.1.1 states that, "A player, coach or bench personnel shall be ejected if he or she is guilty of fighting or leaves the coaching area to participate in an altercation." Also be aware that Rule 12.6.1.2 states, "A coach or team representative may leave the coaching area during an altercation, providing it is an attempt to restore order."
In the case where the entire team leaves the coaching area to participate in an altercation, each team member should be shown a red card and ejected for fighting except where Rule 12.6.1.2 allows.
All NYMISOA members are encouraged to vote for the four referee awards and three coach sportsmanship awards. Please download the ballot and follow the instructions indicated on it. The winners will be honored at the NYMISOA Annual Dinner on November 14, 2011.
Please make sure you follow all required reporting requirements in case of an ejection. Minimum requirements are:
- Prepare and file the Supplemental Ejection Report for all NCAA (not junior college) ejections. One report per ejection.
- If the game is assigned by ECAC, fill out their online ejection report.
- If the ejection is for fighting, fill out this form at nymisoa.com to notify the NISOA Region II (New York State) representative of the ejection.
Other conferences and conference assignors will have additional ejection reporting requirements. Make sure you are aware of all applicable ejection reporting requirements.

The next NISOA National Referee Program biennial cycle will start in 2012. NISOA members who meet the National Referee Program criteria and wish to become a National Referee Applicant should schedule the required assessments for the upcoming season as soon as possible. Prospective applicants should have all the required assessments and paperwork ready for when the application cycle begins in early 2012.
The NISOA web site has all the information you need to participate in the National Referee Program. Mark Butler (Amherst, NY) is our region's area coordinator for the National Referee Program.
We received this from the athletic director at St. Joseph's College:
All St. Joseph's College (L.I.) soccer games (Men & Women) will be played at the Medford Athletic Complex on Horseblock Road in Coram, NY.
