APPOINTMENT OF
MATCH OFFICIALS TO NON-COMPETITION MATCHES POLICY DOCUMENT
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aim
|
|
|
The aim of this document is to provide a common and consistent
policy to the appointment of Match Officials to non-competitive
games, to ensure that the correct skill level of official is
appointed, appropriate to the level of the competing teams.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Background
|
|
|
Non-competition games generally take place prior to the commencement
of the official competition-playing season and are held by clubs and
teams to trial new players and to prepare existing players for the
forthcoming competitive season, both in tactical and fitness terms.
In addition, non-competition games occasionally take place during
the competitive period of the playing season.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before summer 2005 there was no consistent approach to these
appointments, in respect of the correct level of official, the
application of the Laws of the Game and Directives, as well as the
remuneration received by the officials.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This resulted in some high profile games attracting adverse media
attention, brought about by ill discipline of players and incorrect
and inadequate application of the Laws of the Games. Injuries to
players, altercations with managers and disciplinary proceedings
against referees sometimes occur. The common factor in this less
than proficient management of the game was often the lack of skill
level on the part of the referee.
