Incident Management by League 2009-2010

 

Nov29-2009

 

NOTE TO CAPTAINS AND PLAYERS IN THE MEN'S LEAGUE.

There will be INCIDENTS in the men's league. 
What we are attempting to do is treat all fairly.
 
What you can do.
Each time a ref gives a T - you are welcome to submit a report to myself.
Player involved can submit one but really would like a report coming from both

captains involved in the game.
Can discuss issues such as roughness of game, chippy play, attitude of a

player(s), ref's conduct, etc...
(If I am working the game, go ahead and submit anyways - always good to hear

another side of the story)
I will then use your report to deal with issues, using the committee (Jason and

Kevin).

Your report WILL NOT be sent to the referee(s), player(s) involved.  It will just be

used as a resource to see where the problems are happening and what we can

do to address the situation.
 
Please tell your players to quit running to Geremaih with complaints about

refereeing.
YOU WILL BURN HIM OUT!
The league is up and going because of Geremaih, so let him be.
Please direct all your comments to Kevin, Jason or myself.
We are interested and care about the league and will do our best to deal with all

issues.
 
General comment.
Referees are not all the same!  Is this any different than players.  Different skills,

level of experience, tolerance, etc...
Players must look at who is working their game and adjust.
Good officials make adjustments to who is playing the game all the time.
 
Good Behaviour Reward
Players who goes 5 games (playing) without receiving an additional T will have

the T removed from their record. 
 
Final question -  The yelling of the word F..., it happened last night in both games I worked. 

 I spoke to a player or two but once started, it seemed like all were doing it.   I realize it is

men's league but there are kids in the gym, people standing at the door ways, wives, etc...
Comments on this issue would be appreciated, how we should(n't) deal with this issue.
