Victorian Country Championships - Geelong - Friday 22 till Sunday 24 Jan 2016

 

Dear Clubs and Team Managers,

 

According to the AV Summer season handbook, your Club has been rostered to provide helpers for the upcoming Victorian Country Championships set for Friday 22 through to Sunday 24 January 2016 at Geelong.

 

Given the break over Christmas and New Year this is being sent out early  in hope that you will start securing and confirming helper names now. Specific duties for Club  helpers and session times will  be advised  early January.

If you would like a specific duty send through your request by Monday 4 Jan and will endeavour to accommodate where possible.

 

It is essential to these events that helpers are provided as rostered – see attached

 

Following on from the email from Glenn Turnor – AV CEO:

 

-        Club helpers will need to sign in prior to each duty.

-        Club helpers will be provided with food and refreshments during their appropriate duty period. Please ensure that dietary requirements are included when submitting in names of Club helpers

-        If a club is sharing a duty roster, each club member will be required to sign in.

** If duties are being shared we would ask you sign in at least 10 mins before your pre-arranged changeover time so that you can get to your allocated position.

 

A reminder also of some safety requirements:-

-        All club helpers must wear enclosed shoes  - no thongs, open sandals are permitted and no exceptions. If a club helper signs in and does not have enclosed shoes then the duty will be considered  ‘not fulfilled’.

-        Club helpers are reminded to make sure they are sun smart. Please bring a hat or long sleeve shirt and/or appropriate clothing. Sun screen will be provided.

-        Reminder that children are not permitted on the field of play if you are completing your duty

-        If you have any medical condition please make sure that you make us aware when completing the duty form.

 

There are sanctions under the rules relating to club duty. Clearly this is not our preference and in the past the enforcement of the rules has been relaxed until now. “Clubs failing to comply may be fined $200 per championship”.

 

Please send through the names of your Club helpers to andrea@athsvic.org.au no later than Friday 15th January 2016.    If you are no longer a club contact, please  pass this onto the appropriate and advise  accordingly so that our files can be updated.

 

Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas and Safe New Year.

 

Looking forward to seeing you all next year in Geelong

 

Regards

Andrea
