WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO ROUND 1 THIS SATURDAY....
JUST A FEW HOUSEKEEPING RULES
All courts are set out below to accommodate rolling substitutions.....may you please follow any directions from our Umpire Officials, Yellow or Pink vests if you are deemed to be in the wrong areas.
We have one side dedicated to spectators across all 13 courts (court 9 will remain free unless required), and the other side is for scorers & timers along with the respective teams for that court.
The Home Team (left side of the scorecard) will take the left side of the team zone area, and the Away Team (right side of the scorecard) will set up on the right side of the team zone area.
See pics below.
**The two yellow dots indicate the timer and scorer's seats
**The two red dots indicate where the benches for each team are to be set on...in line with the transverse line.
Two dots will be placed on each court; the dots will indicate the interchange hand tag zone for each respective team near the scorer & timing boxes.
ALL names and rolling sub-changes per quarter must be recorded on the separate form attached to the scorecard in the area provided for that player and the applicable quarter. Please ensure all scorers & timers are aware of their responsibilities, failure to note the changes may see players miss out on finals, and worse, not be covered for insurance purposes.
**Chairs will be set out across all courts from 8am in the scorers & timer's boxes, please ensure that even on centrally timed games, both the scorer & timer sit together in this area. This includes NSG, years 6, and U13s. We'd love to see everyone getting into this practice so that, come competitions with finals, people aren't daunted by this action.
Any questions, please seek clarification from your coaches, umpires, and Club Contacts first.
