Product Description

Product Description

'The official guides to success on and off the pitch.'



This Official Football Association series provides invaluable and essential advice and information about key football skills for anyone involved in football, of any age and level. The books are especially aimed at those involved in grassroots football, who may not have the back up and help that they might need to realise the full potential of their involvement in the game. Each book in this series is packed with practical exercises and features, information and expert advice, which will improve your understanding and enhance your ability and enjoyment of the world's greatest game.



A straightforward, lively and practical guide, this book not only covers the laws of the game and how to apply them, but also addresses why you might want to become a referee and the demands put upon you in such a role.



It includes specific chapters on free kicks and offside and also a chapter devoted to player management. This book is not just essential reading for referees and those who are training, but for coaches, players and anyone else involved or interested in the game.



'Be a part of the game.'

Nice Basic Guide 13 Oct 2011
Format:Paperback
I purchased this when on my basic Laws of the Game course and found it helpful in putting some "meat on the bones" of the Laws.

I purchased this for my grandson who is interested in becoming a referee and he has found it useful. I had a quick look and its very easy to read. Excellent description of the dreaded offside rule.
