David Gerson is a soccer referee who provides an honest perspective from the 3rd team on the pitch... Through humor, analysis and education, his podcast is changing how people view referees and officials in all sports. His goal is that the podcast inspires, educates and humanizes the next generation of referees for their own development and appreciation from the players, coaches and spectators they need to work alongside.
In this episode, you will hear about David's journey to becoming a soccer official, stories of parental behaviour towards youth (players and officials) at sporting events, and the difference between the laws of soccer and the rules of soccer. We also talk about the possibility of a "blue card" being introduced, how to calculate "add on" time, and why you don't see too many officials using headsets to communicate in North America.
David also has some excellent socials you should follow including his TikTok, Instagram and Facebook - and of course his podcast which you can find here.
You can support David and the Refs Need Love Community by purchasing some useful merch.
