Saturday and/or parent manager
It is our desire to have a staff member present at all matches, but this may not always be possible. It may be the team coach, or parent or another manager who assumes responsibility. Please ensure: • The team is at the ground and ready for warm up 30 minutes before play starts but some coaches and manages will request longer • The team is correctly dressed in cricket whites and blazer and that boys wear their blazer when umpiring • Umpires and scorers are organised and in place when required. Scorers are expected to correlate the score with opposition team scorers from time to time during the match. • Boys stay together as a team and support their teammates • All gear is accounted for at the end of play • The ground and change rooms are swept and clear of rubbish • It is not the responsiblity of the Saturday coach to score the match • That you are providing strategic assistance and advice to the captain and players
