Ref calls a corner with little time left on the clock. All the kids run down for a last second shot at a goal. As soon as the kid is about the take the corner, the ref calls the game.

All etiquette and opinions aside, what’s the actual rule on blowing the whistle after a corner kick is called?

TIA

Completely up to the referee's discretion. Except in cases like high school, where the clock counts down to zero, then the game ends when the time runs out.

Where do you watch/play highschool? In LA the clock stops at 2min and it's up to the ref when to blow the final whistle.


To OP: Generally you let them take the corner, but it's up to the ref's discretion. But there's no official rule on it.
If the outcome of the match cannot be determined by the corner then I'm cool with the ref blowing the whistle early.

I ref in Alabama. We use the NFHS rules. "A period shall end at the expiration of time." The time keeper is also supposed to count down the last 10 seconds, but they almost never do it.

We don't turn the clock off, but I have no idea what other states do.

College also runs the clock down to zero and ends right at zero.

I think the actual rule is game should end as soon as the added time expires, regardless of what’s happening

Reality is refs end the game after a play like a corner or free kick ends.
