Football officials are commonly referred to as referees,
but each position has specific duties and a specific name...
The referee is the one wearing the white hat.

For me, in football they are all referees, in baseball they are all umpires,
and in soccer and basket ball they are all the father of the other team's Captain.
They should all be treated with courtesy, but in Sao Paulo, Brazil
where customs for soccer may be a bit different...
