FINALLY

Please show respect to our Officials at all times during our events. Our Officials will be more receptive if spoken to in a respectful manner. These people give their time up on a Sunday for the love of the Sport and to support the Organisation, yes they are paid but its certainly not a wage, this is standard across the National Circuit.

Without these people these event simply would not run and disrespect from anyone will not be tolerated. If you need to ask the referee something then do it in the correct manner, we will not be stopping after every point to discuss.

Head Coaches please take this on board with your Team members. There will be zero tolerance on abuse. Officials please stop the area and see an Organiser or Senior Official
