Raiders Recommendations
Coach and Manager are in charge of the team - establish the “rules” to apply to your team and then explain these rules to parents
For example - establish a procedure to discuss any concerns that may arise during the season i.e. NOT on match day
Keep “Information” Wrap and refer to website
Ring relevant Council wet weather lines on match day to ensure field has not been closed
Give the other parents of the team some “ownership” of the team e.g. roster for shirt washing, match report writing, take photos for website, etc
Visit our website regularly and tell parents likewise – www.bthraiderssoccer.com.au for latest news – submit photos for photo gallery – download documents from library
Inspect playing fields for needles, broken glass, etc and ensure goal posts are ok
Advise parents of the above rules and Raiders expectations of conduct on match day
Canteen Roster – Wyatt Oval – great fun – children under 16 not permitted
Net “put up/pull down” roster
Phone results to Competition Secretary
Take good care of club gear – mark balls etc
Avoid fines (eg coach or manager not wearing MWFA ID) (under 10 and up)
Home team to deliver match card to Caroline Eggleston’s house (under 10 and up)
Raiders Wraps emailed approximately each fortnight and available from website
If you see anything of concern, advise ASAP
