Sherborne V Clevedon THE ZEBRAS Match Sponsor Programme Sponsor SHERBORNE TOWN vs CLEVEDON TOWN #ZEBRAS 1 SATURDAY 12TH SEPTEMBER 2020 | KICK OFF 3PM | EMIRATES FA CUP PRELIMINARY ROUND 2 #ZEBRAS FROM THE DUGOUT WAYNE JEROME Good afternoon and a warm welcome to you all and everyone from Clevedon Town for today’s FA Cup Preliminary round tie. After a great start to the season with a 2-1 win against Premier Division side Street in the FA Cup, which not only attracted a gate of 292 it also gave the club some much-needed revenue after this COVID. It also resulted in a nice sum of money for winning the game. Since that victory, we have suffered two league defeats both by 2-0. A home fixture to Portishead and away trip to Radstock definitely not how we visualised the start of the season, but these things happen in football and it’s down to us as a group to put those wrongs right. We are an honest bunch and we know ourselves that we didn’t turn up against Portishead we looked tired and leggy from the midweek heroics against Street. Against Radstock the overall performance was more pleasing than the result but poor finishing and some questionable decisions from the officials cost us dearly. Today is a chance to take our minds off getting them much needed league points to get that monkey off our back and enjoy playing higher league opposition again in the FA Cup. So enjoy your day and always remember everyone wants the underdogs to cause an upset. Who knows today could be that day.

  • The History of Offside by Julian Carosi
    The History of Offside by Julian Carosi www.corshamref.org.uk The History of Offside by Julian Carosi: Updated 23 November 2010 The word off-side derives from the military term "off the strength of his side". When a soldier is "off the strength", he is no longer entitled to any pay, rations or privileges. He cannot again receive these unless, and until he is placed back "on the strength of his unit" by someone other than himself. In football, if a player is off-side, he is said to be "out of play" and thereby not entitled to play the ball, nor prevent the opponent from playing the ball, nor interfere with play. He has no privileges and cannot place himself "on-side". He can only regain his privileges by the action of another player, or if the ball goes out of play. The origins of the off-side law began in the various late 18th and early 19th century "football" type games played in English public schools, and descended from the same sporting roots found in the game of Rugby. A player was "off his side" if he was standing in front of the ball (between the ball and the opponents' goal). In these early days, players were not allowed to make a forward pass. They had to play "behind" the ball, and made progress towards the oppositions' goal by dribbling with the ball or advancing in a scrum-like formation. It did not take long to realise, that to allow the game to flow freely, it was essential to permit the forward pass, thus raising the need for a properly structured off-side law.

  • A History of the VSOA
    VERMONT SOCCER OFFICIALS ASSOCIATION AN ANECDOTAL HISTORY SERVING VERMONT HIGH-SCHOOL SOCCER FOR 50 YEARS By Eric Evans ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Many officials, coaches, and supporters of Vermont soccer contri buted to this history of the VSOA. Special thanks to Stew Schmidt who helped my initial research and to Bill Duval who answered my many questions as the project took shape. Cover Photo: VSOA Ludlow Legends: Life Member John Witalec and Founding Member Stew Schmidt, Fall 2012. Photo by Len Emery. VERMONT SOCCER OFFICIALS ASSOCIATION AN ANECDOTAL HISTORY SERVING VERMONT HIGH-SCHOOL SOCCER FOR 50 YEARS September 2012 marked the 50th anniversary of the creation of the Vermont Soccer Officials Association (VSOA). During that month I had the good fortune of refereeing a girls’ game in Chester with one of the eight Founding Members of the Association, Stew Schmidt. Prior to the coin toss I asked Stew to reflect on the most significant rule change he had seen in those 50 years. “I will give you two. When a ball went off one team ‘into touch’ or out-of-bounds along the sideline, a free kick was awarded in those days to the other team. Now it is a throw-in. The second is the prohibition on the goalie from picking up the ball after a deliberate kick to him from a teammate.” Driving home from the game I realized there must be many other changes in the game of soccer in Vermont since the era when the VSOA emerged. Perhaps more interestingly, soccer officiating would have seen its share of characters with fascinating backgrounds and stories about the game itself and their inevitable successes and mistakes on and off the field.

  • A Brief History of the Laws of the Game
    A Brief History of the Laws of the Game The Laws of the Game are incredibly brilliant. They must be because they provide us with a fun sport which millions of people enjoy. They are also incredibly dull, in their presentation, enough to switch off anyone searching for quick comprehension. Dull? Yes, but only if they are read as written. A brief glance at the rulebook shows just seventeen rules to govern the play but which, amazingly, do not include a single reference to the "Game of Football"! Stanley Lover is an Englishman living in Paris who specializes in the Laws of the Game and has written several books on the Laws and refereeing. What we have is a skeleton, the bare bones of an exciting sport full of action, color, and passion, touching on the whole range of human emotions. Not easy to wrap these ingredients into an exciting document expounding formal procedures, duties, infringements, and sanctions. Another barrier to instant assimilation is the need for multi-language translation for worldwide application. Scratch below the surface And yet, there is a great mine of golden wisdom and commonsense in those dry and dusty old words and phrases. Scratch below the surface and all is revealed! But how? We will deal with that in a moment. For now, we ask a group of young players what they want from the rules. This is a summary of their views; "We want the chance to play well, without getting hurt, and we want to enjoy ourselves." That is exactly what the formal rules do and why they are so incredibly brilliant! Brilliant? Yes, because they are not just ordinary words, arranged in a certain order, but words encasing the basic ethics of fair play laid down by footballers over 130 years ago, 1863.

  • Red and Yellow Cards.Indd
    Unit focus: History of Football Text focus: Information Text (960L) STAGE 6 Who Invented Red And Yellow Cards? Everyone knows when they have done something wrong. Perhaps it is a stern chat from our parents or teacher, maybe we must miss a breakti me or apologise to a friend. However, if you couldn’t speak the same language as everyone else, this would be much harder! This is what it was like playing football before yellow and red cards were invented. How did you know if you had been told off ? Even worse, how did you know if you had to leave the pitch? That was unti l a man named Ken Aston came up with an idea. Ken Aston Ken Aston was born in Essex in 1915. He qualifi ed as a schoolteacher and was used to keeping control of a class. In his spare ti me, Aston began refereeing football matches. During the Second World War, Aston joined the army and fought for his country. Aft er the war, he conti nued teaching and became the headteacher of a school in Essex, in 1953. Aston loved refereeing, and in 1962 he was given the chance to go to the World Cup- the highest honour for a referee. Battle of Santiago (1962) In June 1962, Aston travelled over to Chile for the World Cup. He was asked to take charge of a match in the capital city, Santi ago. This was between the hosts, Chile, and Italy. Both sides were desperate to win but the match that took place shocked many spectators.
