WSA - Melio Mobile App Payment Process

WSA pays all referees through the MELIO direct deposit mobile app (instructions, CLICK HERE)

First-time users:

Do not create a Melio account until you receive a WSA/Melio payment email, typically 7–10 days after working your first game. The email will be sent to the address listed in your Assignr account, so please check your spam/junk folder.

Use the secure link in that email to set up your payment method:

• Direct Deposit (enter your bank information), or
• Paper Check

Once your payment method is established, future payments will be processed automatically.

Important Notes

• Referees are responsible for maintaining current email and payment information and for tracking their own payments.
• WSA does not collect or store bank account information.
• Paper checks may take up to 14 days to arrive.
• Direct deposit typically takes 5–10 business days for the first payment and 2–3 business days thereafter.
• Changes to your Melio payment information may delay future payments by up to two weeks.
• Any missing or disputed payments should be reported to the WSA Assignor (kwgalley@gmail.com) within 90 days of the game date. Claims submitted after 90 days may not be investigated or eligible for reissuance.

Required:

• All referees must complete a W-9 form and send it to:
• Kathleen Galley: kwgalley@gmail.com
• or mail to: Westport Soccer, PO Box 2561, Westport, CT 06880 (Attn: Ref Assignor)
  
  

Each soccer goal must have 2-3 filled sandbags securing the goal. 

No sandbags, No Play, No Exceptions! 

Sandbags can be found in the storage bins on the side of each field. When in doubt, contact WSA Referee Assignor, Kathleen: kwgalley@gmail.com 

IMPORTANT MUST READ!  

CJSA Lightening/Thunder Policy (Inclement Weather) -- What to do on the field: 

Lightning – Recognizing the threat.  

Apply the 30-30 rule: When you see lightning, count the time until you hear thunder. If this time is 30 seconds or less, seek proper shelter. If you can’t see the lightning, just hearing the thunder is a good back-up rule. 

Wait 30 minutes or more after hearing the last thunder before leaving shelter. Referees must protect the safety of all participants by stopping game activities quickly, so that participants and spectators may retire to a safer place before the lightning threat becomes significant. Remember, if you can hear the thunder, you are within reach of lightning.g.
