5. FlagBase The Referee Administration Program Take me back to the top of this page

FlagBase is a program designed for Football (Soccer) Referees to keep records of all aspects of their career on a database, with easy access to information when required.
What the program does & Operating Requirements.
The program can keep information about Clubs, Competitions, Events, Grounds, League Contacts, Misconduct Reports, Money, Organisations, Other Referees and most importantly Matches. The program also has report form templates for some County FA's in the South East, but the number is continually expanding.
The program has easy to use information input forms and buttons to perform a magnitude of tasks. The program has a massive amount of pre programmed searches, and the ability to produce lists and/or directories at the touch of a button. Custom Searches and Lists can be designed by the individual.
The program is built in Microsoft Access, and there are two versions: FlagBase in Microsoft Access 97 and FlagBase in Microsoft Access 2000 (and Higher). Unfortunately, the Access 97 version cannot guarantee all features of the program. However MS Access 97 or higher is essential.
To make full use of the program, the user requires Microsoft Excel 97 or higher (NOTE that the Excel Supplements were built and used in Excel 2000). These supplements include a workbook to analyse your misconduct reports, showing various statistics.
Please use this link to go to the FlagBase web site to download the program.

Penalty Shoot-Out Card by Julian Carosi and Keith Butler

This design can easily be placed on the back of a postcard, and enables you to accept (OK), decline(NO), provide open dates(OPEN) when you are available to accept future appointments, and to close(CLOSE) dates that you are not available to receive future appointments on, from your Referees' Appointments Secretary.

8. Below is a design card layout for noting the Referee's and the Assistant Referees' expenses.

This design can easily be constructed on the back of a postcard, and enables you to note down beforehand, all the officials' expenses, in readiness to hand over to whoever pays you at each game.
This is just another chore that the Referee could organise before he gets to the game - giving the Referee one less thing to think about.

Happy whistling to you all, and please use these FREE tools for Referees........
