  1. USA Hockey Four Official System Positioning & Mechanics

  2. Four-Official System • When can it be used: • Youth (boys and girls) games at the 16 & Under age level and above. • Recommended when the flow of play requires an additional referee for proper coverage of the ice and observation of play. • It should not be used: • To create more “job opportunities” for officials • To assign under-qualified officials to high level games (two “average” referees do not equal one “excellent” referee).

  3. Four-Official System • Principles of the Four-Official System • End zone/goal line positioning is essentially the same regardless as to what officiating system is used. • The R2 (official in the neutral zone) must compliment the site lines of the R1 (official in end zone) to ensure the entire play area is covered. • Instead of following play up the ice, the Lead Referee (R1) will have to use excellent backward skating skills to lead the play into the zone • There should be no competition between the two referees to assess penalties, • The referees must work together to consistently apply the rules and share equal responsibility for managing the game.

  4. Four-Official System • Terminology • FRONT / LEAD REFEREE (R1) – responsibility – first priority is the action area • BACK / TRAILING REFEREE (R2) – responsibility – compliment R1’s site lines including play away from the action area • ACTION AREA – the area and play in the immediate vicinity of the puck

  28. Calling Penalties • Either referee may assess penalties. Sight lines will dictate who makes the call (not proximity). • Only one referee must raise their arm for penalties. However, the other referee should raise his/her arm if they witness another infraction. • If both referees raise their arm for one infraction. • If play is stopped in the end zone, the Lead Referee will assess. • If play is stopped in the neutral zone, the Trailing Referee will assess.

  29. Calling Penalties • Communication between the referees is critical to ensure consistency and proper judgment. • When injuries and altercations occur the referees (and linesmen) must communicate to ensure the correct calls are made. • Although it should rarely occur, Linesmen may still report major penalties to the referees. • The referees must support each other’s calls at all times, and be willing to admit that the other official may have had a better look at the play.
