Substitution procedure continued:
According to FIFA:A substitute only enters the field of play after the player being replaced has left and after receiving a signal from the referee.
WSA Rule Modifications:Typically subs will start coming on the pitch as players are coming off. This is mostly due to the lack of stoppage time that can be added. Try to have the players exiting and entering the field quickly WITH YOUR PERMISSION.

![Page 29: WSA Modified Laws of the Game (LOTG) For all WSA Recreational players, coaches and Jr. Referees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697c0051a28abf838cc4f0b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
WSA Referee responsibilities:

![Page 30: WSA Modified Laws of the Game (LOTG) For all WSA Recreational players, coaches and Jr. Referees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697c0051a28abf838cc4f0b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Other Referee responsibilities
Lightening
• Apply the 30-30 rule:When to “call”a game…
When you see lightning, count the time until you hear thunder.
If this time is 30 seconds orless, seek proper shelter.
If you can't see the lightning, just hearing the thunder is a good back-up rule.
Hearing thunder means you are within reach of lightning
Minimize the risk of being struck:
Protect the safety of all participants by stopping game activities quickly.
(1)No place outside is safe near thunderstorms
(2) The best shelter is a large, fully enclosed, substantially constructed building. A vehicle with a solid metal roof and metal sides is a reasonable second choice. If there is not proper shelter, avoid Higher elevations; wide open areas, including fields and tall isolated objects.
![Page 31: WSA Modified Laws of the Game (LOTG) For all WSA Recreational players, coaches and Jr. Referees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697c0051a28abf838cc4f0b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

• Any incident that occurs during a match falling outside of the norm should be reported.

A referee report
![Page 32: WSA Modified Laws of the Game (LOTG) For all WSA Recreational players, coaches and Jr. Referees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697c0051a28abf838cc4f0b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Referee’s favorite tool
Referees are reminded that the whistle is a tool of communication and not merely a convenient signaling device.
Whistles should be selected carefully for the match conditions, age of players and other factors.
It is neither required nor expected that the whistle be used for all stoppages and restarts of play. A whistle demands attention and should be blown when such attention is needed.
Uncontested stoppages (as when a ball clearly leaves the field) should not be whistled — a voice and/or hand signal by the referee will normally be sufficient.
Referees should also be alert to the need for variations in the length, force and tone in their use of a whistle to indicate different types of stoppages or different degrees of concern for the event that has just occurred.
