Next News Sheet: Monday 5th September 2011 GENERAL REMINDER: The League Directorate & Handbook – Season 2011/2012 can now be viewed via our website (www.scwgfl.com). The original issue sent out has seen many changes so make sure that you are contacting the right person. The updated amendment sheet can be viewed via our website to Full-time. Last season I was getting queries from a quite a few saying that they could not find contact details for either League Officers or Clubs because they never had a handbook. Every person that I originally had been given an email address for has received the email with the League Directorate & Handbook. We do not send out hard copies. This is a trend now being taken up by other leagues within the County. Everything you require is on our website (www.scwgfl.com) or via our website to Full-time. When contacting a League Management Committee member please contact the relevant person, telephone numbers can be found in the League Directorate: Bob Rashbrook – General queries competition-secretary@scwgfl.com Hannah Cooper – Finance (including fines) queries treasurer@scwgfl.com Brian Shacklock – Women registration queries registrations-women@scwgfl.com Bob Rashbrook – Girls’ registration queries registrations-girls@scwgfl.com Russell Brooks – Referees/Assistant Referee queries referees@scwgfl.com Paul Preston – Fixture queries fixtures@scwgfl.com Paul Jeffery – Welfare queries welfare-officer@scwgfl.com Chris Cooper/Audra Ryder – if you’re not happy with answers given to you by any of the above chairman@scwgfl.com or deputychairman@scwgfl.com When telephoning please leave a message if the officer you require is not available and they will get back to you ASAP. Please note if calling an officer in the evening please make sure calls are made before 9.00pm. I’m sure they will not call you after that hour so please respect their social time. The League will be producing soon a list of contacts of those Committee Members that you can relay your problems too if you feel you cannot approach a League Officer. Have you a user id and password for your Team Administrator? – contact Paul Preston (fixtures@scwgfl.com) to arrange this.
Finally, if you are unsure pick up the telephone or email to avoid going down the wrong path and getting in to bad habits. MATCH DAY SHEETS: These sheets were introduced for last season to assist clubs (Under 15/14/13/12/11/10 only) on match days. Ignore them at your peril; it could cost you a match. These can be found on our website (www.sgwgfl.com) under 2011/2012 Player Registration Forms. You may need to scroll down to find.
CLUB AGREEMENT FORM: The following have still to return this form, in short if you fail to return this form you are not agreeing to abide by the FA Rules and Regulations so may not be able to play football. The Clubs have been sent this form on at least one occasion so I do not intend to send again. Fines will be issued for non return by the 1st September 2011. Henfield Ladies/Girls; Jarvis Brook Girls and Marle Place Wanderers Girls.
Sussex County Women & Girls Football League REGISTRATIONS: Make sure that those registrations have the player’s full forenames (not by what the player is known as) and are signed correctly. Photos are of passport size and that they are passport type photos not a distant figure showing her favourite football teams new kit, and do try to avoid fancy bows in the hair!. Yes we are still getting them even after Club Secretaries have received numerous emails and my highlighting it at the AGM. >>>> PLEASE DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS (BIRTH CERTIFICATES/PASSPORTS/DRIVING LICENSE ETC. <<<<<. Those in the women’s section, when returning registration forms/cards to Brian please do not send by recorded/special delivery, this will delay the process. Unlike me Brian is not in a position where he can call in at a post office to collect during the day and sometimes at weekends. Please make sure that you use the correct postage when forwarding registration details. If you require more Photo Registration Cards for whatever age group please contact me (registrations-girls@scwgfl.com). Brian is also holding some for the adult section.
CHANGE OF DETAILS: Please let me know of any change of details, not only that of Chairman or Secretary, but Fixture Secretary and Team Managers.
MATCH OFFICIALS: Details for Match Officials can be found on the League Website. Officials will be added as and when they are allocated to the League. Club’s requesting Match Officials should contact the Referees Appointment Secretary (Russell Brooks) at least six weeks prior to a fixture being played. Do not leave it until the last minute and expect an official to be appointed.
RESULTS AND MATCH RETURNS: Remember to SMS Text your results after the match. If you have a problem there is a telephone number listed in the League Directorate & Handbook. Results should be with the League no later than 4.30pm. If you find yourself in a position where you can not notify the result by 4.30pm make the League aware of the circumstances. Please input your Match Return details on Full-time at the earliest opportunity and no later than the Tuesday following the match. Full-time will be locked-up at 4.00pm on the Tuesday and will only be made available upon request.
COMPETITION SECRETARY: Any message left on my old telephone number as of the 1st September 2011 will not be returned, please use my new number as shown in League Directorate or below. I think that’s everything covered. Remember the League Directorate & Handbook is there to assist you, so read it!. The League Officers and Committee Members are there to assist you, so contact them!. Finally, have a good season and remember that your Club is part of the RESPECT programme so make sure all concerned within the club, including parents behave themselves.
