Now you will be able to record all misconduct yellow & red cards. Show correct 8+8 misconduct code for each yellow & red card submitted. Follow the prompts to correctly record the misconduct and clock CLOSE when all your Game Report input is complete.
For red cards, explanation notes should be included.
​
Any serious injury where the player did not return to the game must be reported in the Game Report.
Red Cards, coach dismissals, serious injuries, and/or any other unusual incident/circumstance occurring during an EDP game also requires a USSF Supplemental report. This report needs to be emailed to Colin Hope at colin_hope@edpsoccer.com
Referees should keep their game reports for their own records. The game report is a legal document which is especially important in regard to serious injuries and insurance coverage. Maintenance of your game reports will provide you with documentation to check should there be any question later.
For all EDP league play: passes for any players who receive red cards as well as passes for any coaches dismissed for irresponsible behavior will be RETURNED to the team by the referee after the indicative information for each player/coach is recorded at the game card.
