We need to output HTML fragment only, with sections as needed. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. Let's parse the posting. Company: Players Sport & Social Group Location: Chicago, IL 60622 Pay: $22.00 - $28.00 per game Job Type: Part-time Work Location: In person About Players Sport & Social Group ... (description). The Role ... (description). What You'll Do (list). What We're Looking For (list). Nice to Have (list). Schedule & Pay (includes employment type, pay, schedule). Why Join Us (list). Benefits (list). Then EEO boilerplate to remove. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading (not present). No Job ID. We need to include sections: About the role? The posting has "About Players Sport & Social Group" (company description) and "The Role". Possibly combine into "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to these headings. We have: - About the role: could be "The Role" paragraph describing the role. Also maybe "About Players Sport & Social Group" is company description, not role. But we can include as part of About the role? Might be better to have "About the role" containing the description of the role (The Role). The company description could be omitted? It's substantive but not role. However we could include it under About the role? The instruction says use those headings as examples; we can also use other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect us to use those headings where applicable. So we need to decide which sections we have content for. We have: - Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" list. - Requirements: "What We're Looking For" list (reliability, communication, knowledge, experience, confidence, attitude, availability, location, age). That's requirements. - Qualifications: maybe "Nice to Have" could be qualifications? Or we could treat Nice to Have as Qualifications (preferred). Could also have Skills: maybe "Strong communication skills and an even temperament" etc. But we already have those in Requirements. Could separate Skills: maybe "Solid working knowledge of soccer rules", "Confidence making decisions", etc. But we can keep simple: Requirements and Qualifications. - Benefits: list "Employee discount", "Flexible schedule". Also maybe "Be part of Chicago's vibrant adult social sports community", "Enjoy a flexible, part-time schedule that fits around your life", "Stay active and close to the games you love", "Join a friendly, team-first culture". Those are more like Why Join Us. But Benefits section should be only if posting actually states them. It does state Benefits: Employee discount, Flexible schedule. So we include Benefits. - Pay: we have Pay: $22 - $28 per game. Also employment type: Part-time, seasonal. So we can include Pay section with that info. Also Schedule: we have Schedule: Weeknight evenings and Sundays, at parks and turf fields across Chicago. Also Availability for evening shifts 2 nights per week (ideally Tuesday & Thursday). So we can include Schedule section. We should not include sections with placeholder or vague like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, except boilerplate. Let's extract all substantive content: Company description: "Players Sport & Social Group (PSSG) is one of Chicago's leading adult recreational sports organizations, hosting and facilitating large-scale adult sports leagues and social events across the city.

headings for each section we include. Use

    About the role

    Players Sport & Social Group (PSSG) is one of Chicago's leading adult recreational sports organizations, hosting and facilitating large-scale adult sports leagues and social events across the city. We create social sport competitions that give people a fun, safe, and welcoming environment to play, compete, and connect.

    We're looking for reliable, confident referees to officiate our adult soccer leagues, which play weeknight evenings at parks and turf fields throughout Chicago. Our goal is to deliver competitive soccer in a fun and safe environment — and the referee is the person who sets that tone on the field.

    Responsibilities

    • Officiate adult recreational and competitive soccer matches
    • Enforce league rules consistently and keep matches fair, safe, and on schedule
    • Handle player conduct issues firmly and fairly, in line with our player conduct policy
    • Communicate clearly and professionally with players, captains, and league staff
    • Assist with basic field setup as needed (goals, cones, equipment)
    • Track and report scores at the end of each match
    • Represent PSSG's fun, social spirit on and off the field

    Requirements

    • Reliability — you show up on time for every scheduled shift
    • Strong communication skills and an even temperament
    • Solid working knowledge of soccer rules (indoor and outdoor formats)
    • Prior experience refereeing soccer leagues or games
    • Confidence making decisions under pressure, including when calls are contested
    • An enthusiastic, positive attitude
    • Availability for evening shifts 2 nights per week (ideally Tuesday & Thursday)
    • Based in the Chicago area with reliable transportation to venues across the city
    • Must be 18+

    Qualifications

    • Referee certification (USSF or equivalent)
    • Experience with adult recreational or social sports leagues

    Benefits

    • Employee discount
    • Flexible schedule

    Pay

    Pay: $22 - $28 per game

    Employment type: Part-time, seasonal

    Schedule

    Schedule: Weeknight evenings and Sundays, at parks and turf fields across Chicago

    Availability for evening shifts 2 nights per week (ideally Tuesday & Thursday)

    We might have duplicated availability; it's already in Requirements. But we can keep it in Schedule as part of schedule description. However we should not duplicate content? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's in the original? The original had availability in Requirements and also schedule mentions weeknight evenings and Sundays. The Schedule & Pay section includes schedule: Weeknight evenings and Sundays, at parks and turf fields across Chicago. It does not repeat the 2 nights per week. So we should not add that again unless it's in the posting. The posting had "Availability for evening shifts 2 nights per week (ideally Tuesday & Thursday)" under What We're Looking For. That's a requirement, not schedule. So we should keep it only under Requirements. The Schedule section should only contain the schedule info from the posting: "Weeknight evenings and Sundays, at parks and turf fields across Chicago". So we will not duplicate the 2 nights. Thus Schedule section:

    Schedule: Weeknight evenings and Sundays, at parks and turf fields across Chicago

    Pay section: include Pay and Employment type. Now check if any other substantive info: "Why Join Us" bullet points. Are those considered Benefits? They are more like reasons to join. The instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The "Why Join Us" is substantive. Should we create a section for it? The allowed headings list includes Benefits, Pay, Schedule, etc. Not "Why Join Us". But we could treat those as Benefits? However Benefits already has employee discount and flexible schedule. The "Why Join Us" points are more like cultural perks. Could we include them under Benefits as additional list items? The posting already has Benefits list separate from Why Join Us. The Benefits section in the posting only had Employee discount and Flexible schedule. The Why Join Us is separate. So we should preserve that info. We could create a section called "Why Join Us" but the instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings (e.g. ...). It might be okay to use other headings if needed, but they gave examples. Safer to stick to those head
