DO YOU NEED A REFEREE ?

 

The procedure is set out below 

 
Clubs requesting a referee for their game should contact Alan Wiggins by e-mail alan.wiggins@wsyl.org.uk stating the game, the venue and most importantly the ko time.
Ideally the request should be made no later than the Monday before the game (6 days notice).
 
You must request a ref on a week by week basis due to the constantly changing fixtures. Priority will be given to the older age groups, but there are a number of young referees who are available for the younger teams. 
 
Some clubs are self sufficient and can supply their own referees, but these must not come from those referees listed in the handbook. The League referees can only be
booked through the Referee Sec. and we will be quite strict on this rule.    The League also reserves the right to appoint referees to certain games if we feel this is appropriate. Whilst it is impossible to cover all games, we do have a good number of refs  and we will do our best to meet your requirements".
 
Last season's procedure worked quite well and will be adopted again for this season. i.e. Clubs e-mail Alan Wiggins no later than the Monday before the Sunday game.
If you make contact any later you stand the risk of missing out because all the refs  maybe allocated elsewhere. 
On receipt of all the requests, they are matched against the list of available referees, and  often one referee will be used for two games when the location (s) and/or kick off times permit. Many clubs have a number of teams playing on the same ground with staggered ko times, so it obviously makes sense to talk to your colleagues. Perhaps you could appoint a  pitch/referee officer so that only one person from your club contacts the Ref Sec ?  

Once the refs are allocated, you, your opponents and the referee will all be sent the  same e-mail confirmation. Clubs must still confirm the arrangement with the referee in case he does not know the venue. If you have any queries or need further clarification please contact me daytime or evening on 01932 789376 or alan.wiggins@wsyl.org.uk

 
Finally clubs are reminded of the change to rule 10(AA) introduced for this season. When contacting the opposition with details of the game, the home club must additionally advise details of the qualified referee that they plan to use for the game. This applies to all referees, whether they are League Refs, Referees your club uses, or personnel from your club. The important point is that they are qualified referees

Alan Wiggins Referee Secretary.
