FUTURE FERNS FINISH this weekend

Parking on Saturdays - A message from KCDC

It has been identified that vehicles associated with both junior rugby and netball are parking on the footpaths of nearby streets. Please note that this is not permitted by the Kāpiti Coast District Council. By parking on the footpath, it puts others at risk. Children could get hit if forced on to the road, wheelchairs and pushchairs can’t get past and vision impaired people could injure themselves. We are aware that parking in this area is not ideal on a Saturday morning but we would encourage our families to park further down the street and take and extra few minutes to walk. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Regards,

Mark Hammond

Basic protocols for Umpires

Basic Protocols:

• Umpires acknowledge each other before the game.
• Umpires check both teams for Nails, Jewellery/Adornments and Uniform.
• Umpires ask ONE spectator to be the Official Score Keeper for the entire game.
• Umpires encourage teams to do their own Toss and then inform the Umpires of the result i.e. who has the Centre pass and which way teams will be going.
• Umpires ask each team for their Match Ball and then decide which ball will be used for the duration of the game.
• Umpires “Toss” to determine which side they will have and who the Walking Umpire will be before the game.  Whoever wins the Toss takes the Northern side of the court.
• Umpires stand together on the side line (either side) before the game.
• At the 30 second call from the Control Room, if neither team or only one team are on court the non-walking umpire blows their whistle to alert the team/s that they need to be on court.
• The Walking Umpire crosses the court, mid-court, and releases the ball at Centre circle just before the start of play.
• The Controlling Umpire (the play is going their way) starts the game on the hooter.
• At the end of each quarter both Umpires meet “mid-court” at the end of each quarter, confirm they have the correct next Centre pass and walk off the court together and confirm the Centre pass with the Score Keeper.  If the Umpires and Score Keeper disagree, the Umpires are the ones who MUST change their Centre pass to match the Scorecard.
