Subject of our blog today are soccer referee or assistant referee flags. It is safe to say that advancements in science and technology tremendously changed our lives. The beautiful game of soccer, and soccer referees, were not immune to these great technological changes and, in fact, benefited from them tremendously. One area that this is unquestionably true for are soccer referee flags. Gone are the days when it was possible, albeit unlikely, that referee missed his assistant referee's flag signal. Now, simply with a push of a button, an assistant referee can instantaneously alert the referee to his signal and other developments on the field by sending either audible or vibrating signal to the referee's receiver securely attached to his/her arm. Thus, even if the referee missed his assistant's initial flag signal, it will be virtually impossible for the referee to miss vital communications from his/her assistant referees once audible or vibrating signal is sent.
Currently, the most technologically advanced soccer referee flags are so called Electronic or Beeper Soccer Referee Flags. Our store offers these high-tech soccer referee flags at three price-point levels. First, and also possibly the most recognizable name in this space, are ErvoCom Electronic Referee Flags. After all, ErvoCom Beeper Flags are truly professional system that was used in the Premier League, Bundesliga, Eriedivisie, FA Cup as well as the FIFA World Cup and various UEFA & FIFA fixtures. ErvoCom Soccer Referee Flags are immune to interference, thanks to its sophisticated coding system.
ErvoCom Soccer Referee Flags feature a rubberized handle grip which is ideal for wet and humid conditions, have easily identifiable buttons on the front and back of the flag-stick, allowing an assistant referee to quickly communicate with the referee. The ErvoCom referee flag vibrates to confirm that the signal was sent to the referee. Importantly, and truly unique feature, ErvoCom allows for different vibrations for assistants' one and two. In addition, ErvoCom Soccer Referee Flags come with adjustable beep volume and the referee's receiver unit may be programmed for notification by either sound, vibration or both. The actual receivers are contoured to the arm so that they fit comfortably and securely and the receiver is integrated into the casing for added comfort and security
