OCYS Consolidated Thread

[Unregistered]

if this is exactly what happened then, lets see what reaction or penalties FYSA imposes
on this coach. Suspension for the rest of the seasonal year thru next tryouts is a good
start

If the coach did touch the referee, he could be going to jail for assault on a game official, which the state of Florida takes very seriously

The ref could be the greatest. The ref could be average. The ref could suck. Whatever the case, I agree with you that the ref can't be touched or threatened for that matter. It is not civilized nor is it appropriate at a youth soccer game at any age. It is assault.

is this the same ref that gives extremely long explanations then threatens you if you reply? There's a ref in orlando that throws a parent out every week.

warm up the lawyers!

Folks, you can go to the FYSA website, and verify this (Look under Referee abuse), but I believe this is either a 2nd or 3rd degree felony....and more serious if it invloves a minor

Nice drama, attack the ref on the field from behind. Funny thing is the tiny 140 lb ref backhanded you as you had your arm around his neck and gave you a bleeding goose egg. Get help you fat redneck.

I smell a troll.

Got FACTS? What OCYS team? What match/location?

This is youth soccer, even if a ref made a bad call or had a bad game everyone needs to remember that one this is youth soccer and two everyone has a bad day so let it go as human error. If the ref was a minor then this is not only a horrible day for youth soccer but a sad one as well. If what is said is true then that coach should be arrested, ban from youth soccer for life and that club would be required to have all of their coaches take a course on anger management since at least one got in under the radar.

What you should remeber is you cannot physically assult someone. FYSA emphatically has stated they will not tolerate this. Be interesting to see what happens.

Shameful

U15 boys. Rockledge parent - I helped break it up, physically.

First this is the second time we played this team and I give great respect to the parents and players of the OYCS. Contrary to what some people write on this board my experience is they are good kids and good parents. What I saw today was a disgrace

The ref was extremely calm and did a great job. He at one point gave a talk to a OYSC player, instead of a card. He also verbally counseled one of our players and a OYSC player at the same time in a later incident. There were very few calls missed, perhaps a couple of possible offsides cause the AR was a young girl that didn't run the line. The coach in question is a screamer, and berates his own players mostly. I only heard him disrespectful to his own players.

Due to injuries Rockledge played 10 boys no subs. Score was tied 1-1 and this happen with about 20 mins in the game. I think the coach in question was frustrated and emotional. I think the issue started on a play where all the OYSC team including the backs were pushed way forward. IIRC it was a corner. We came up the ball and our Right wing was behind all the OYSC backs about 15-20 yards on HIS OWN HALF. He made a run and my son passed a ball into space. The OYSC coaches and parents started screaming bloody murder because he was clearly several yards forward of the last defender save the goaly. Not he was very nearly the half line when the ball was played to him. Is it possible he was offsides (crossed the midline) maybe, maybe not. But as the ref saw apparently, it was on his own half so no offsides by laws of the game. Rockledge did not score but the ref went ape scheisse.
The ref calmly walked over to talk and the coach came charging at the ref yelling. The Ref pulled out his card and was booking the coach in accordance with the rules of competition of the league. Referee was smaller than several of the players by the way and weighed 50-100 lbs less than the coach. Anyway, ref backed off turn away and the coach grabbed the ref by the necked and tried to twist his head. Two other OYCS coaches ran out, and I didn't know if to join or stop. I wasn't waiting around. I wasn't gonna let this creep kill this guy. Fortunately the other coaches were trying to get the death grip off the coach, as I was about to punch right in the nose. He was carrying on about his head bleeding, and sure enough he had a pretty good goose egg and a little blood. Unless I missed something, poetic justice was done to see crying over his little injury.

I didn't see any aggression by the much smaller calm ref. Perhaps the ref managed to get a lick in over his shoulder ??

4 Police came and when I game my statement it became apparent the guys story was that the ref headbutted him. BS! Anyway the ref remained soft spoken and 20 minutes later the fool started yelling and being restrained by his coaches parents saying he was gonna file charges and suit the ref, screaming he wanted his coaches card back. One of the cops said, he is going nuts again. I can't believe the cops didn't arrest the guy. All the stupid arrest cops make and this is one to me was cut and dry.

Anywhooo, the game was suspended. I think it should be a forfeit "shrug". I have never seen anything like it in my life. I will be very interested in how the league administers discipline to this maladjusted coach.

To the other team, no disrespect intended but this was absolutely pathetic. You also need to read the FIFA laws of the game before you start a riot. Peace and out

"ref went ape scheisse." I meant the coach went ape scheisse.

By the book, there are now procedures for the referee to follow. Hopefully he will.
Getting the police involved and witnesses was a good, first step.

Every year younger referees opt out, i.e., do not return. These kind of stories just support their decisions. I heard there is a certain Clearwater coach whose actions are also being called into question.

Still sound like a TROLL?

Absolute embarrassing for Orlando City soccer organization. One of their own coaches red carded and then assaults a referee. How the F do you spin this one. The hired TS interns that OC have deployed on our community along with numerous legal council will need to be on high alert. OC if you work this hard you might be about to spin this towards Hue Menzies

Were any one of the numerous coaching directors on hand.

4 winter spring police officers present to calm the Orlando City hired coach.

Has anyone called a news station?
Call the mayors. Call your local representatives.

OC youth direction is a mess covered up with clever messages from the leadership
