ALL teams from U8s up MUST provide a ground official at every home, game.
Ground official duty should be rotated throughout the team.
Team managers have a copy of ground official duties pin their folder, alternatively they are available here in Documents to read. Ground official vests are in your teams playing strip game day bag.
Not having a ground official for a competition team game can cause the club to receive warnings, $200 & $500 fines per team per game.
Please help us out and have a ground official.
Managers have most teams on a roster for this duty.
As many have said its like a teacher on playground duty – your in charge of protecting referees or game leaders, making sure the mums & dads are behaving, in charge on any injuries both on and off the field inc calling ambulance if ever needed.
We will always say call a committee member if there is a problem and we will come and help with any situation.
Under 5-7s usually have 1 committee member as ground official across all games, however we do get busy. If there is a parent who would like to regularly help us with this and wear a vest please let us know
