Signing on ProcessSigning on Process
1. Each Club is to print out their Sign-on Sheet and take it to the Match
2. Each Team signs their respective sheet in front of the opposition, whilst checking
the teams PHOTO SHEET. Teams then swap their Sign-on Sheet with the
opposition
3. Both Teams then tick their players off on the opponent’s sheet
4. At the end of the Match, the Referee, Assistant Referees and Ground Marshals
PRINT their name on both sheets and the Managers cross check the infringements
& result before signing the sheet. Ideally this is done together so that the records
are accurate
5. Failure to bring a Sign-on Sheet to the ground may render the Match a Forfeit by
review of the Competition Manager. In this instance, the Match will always be
played with outcomes to be decided by SJRU Administration through the following
week
15
Match Results & Games PlayedMatch Results & Games Played

• Once the sign-on sheet has been signed by a Team Official then the Teams surrender the right to appeal over any signing-on irregularities.

17
The Ground Marshal Card Process (GMC)The Ground Marshal Card Process (GMC)• All teams must have an appointed Ground Marshal for both Home and Away Games
- to be easily identified by referee – must wear fluoro vest
- crowd control – keep natives under control
- patrol inside boundary rope, both sides
- must not coach
• GMC Process - To alert the Ground Marshal to an off-field problem that he or she may not have seen
• Transfers responsibility for an off-field problem to the Ground Marshals (and therefore the Clubs) and takes the referee out of the equation
• The GMC is not a device to be used to solve an on-field problems
• Referees are being asked to apply common sense in all circumstances
• The GMC process will be initiated by a referee when any participant in the Match is receiving an unacceptable level of abuse from off the field
• At the next stoppage of play the referee will: Mark the stoppage position Move to the centre of the field and hold up the GMC (Black Card) Both HOME & AWAY Ground Marshals are to make their way to the Referee as quickly as possible Referee to brief the Ground Marshals as to the problem and ask them to act on the issue Immediately restart play, sparing no time waiting for the Ground Marshals to act
18
The Ground Marshal Card Process The Ground Marshal Card Process (Continued)(Continued)
Definition of Abuse
•Any action directed at an individual, before, during or after a match, which would be considered unacceptable behaviour as outlined in the Australian Rugby Union Code of Conduct.
•This includes abusive, threatening or intimidating language, unnecessary obvious dissension, displeasure or disapproval directed at match officials, crude or abusive gestures, and any action or conduct which impairs public confidence in the honest and orderly conduct of matches and competitions.
Abandoning the Game the Game
•If the Ground Marshals are unable to solve the problem outlined and it is obvious to the Ground Marshal and/ or the referee that it is unsafe to continue the Match, the referee has the ability to abandon the Match as allowed within the Laws of the Game
•This is to be done by again showing the GMC and blowing “no-game”. Fairly extreme conditions will have to exist for this decision to be taken
19
Club PoliciesClub Policies• Refer Club Website
• Equal Playing Time
– The policy is seen as a critical plank in achieving our key objectives and is non-negotiable
– We need to select forwards and backs in the right numbers to help equal playing time
– Coaches need to plan substitutions and ensure equal time on field across a game or group of games (max 3)
– Semi-finals and finals - Players must get meaningful game time
– The communication to parents around players coming off is essential so they understand the policy and why it is in place
– All players must have playing time in finals
– Common Sense Approach
• Awards
– George Smith (Best & Fairest) – 3,2,1 points to be awarded each week
– Most Improved
– Team Player
• Registration Payments
– Player will be ineligible to play after Round 4 if registration fees remain unpaid – unless approved by the Committee
