Last night we traveled 1 hour 30 minutes and no refs were present. We played the game anyway, (with the coaches and players calling fouls, etc). After the game was over the AD approached me and said the game didn't count b/c we didn't have referees. So, if both coaches agree, can it count as an game if it was played with no officials. What are the rules regarding what makes a game "official"?

I don't think it can be ruled as an "official" match - reference page B-77 #9

- Schools must use officials that are certified by the League Office. Instructions for postponing or
canceling games for which certified officials are booked are printed on page B-85. Last date to
play a soccer match is May 8, 2014

There may also be issues with an illegal practice. Especially if this was not your first match and it is after the season start date.
