Please note that Ground Control of the venue is performed by the team playing on Field No 2, as their field is located closest to the Ground Control Area.

Ground Control

 

One person is required for Venue Supervision and one additional person is required for Ground Supervision (playing field) as set out below

 

 

1.VENUE SUPERVSION (Team playing on Field 2)

 

* The team rostered to perform Ground Control (Venue Supervision) must provide one adult to perform the duty of Rostered Ground Controller. They must remain in the vicinity of the Ground Control Centre (Canteen/Kiosk) for the duration of their Ground Control Duty. This person must wear an official orange Ground Control jacket at all times. Jackets are located within the Canteen / Ground Control area. Responsibilities include;

 

-The Rostered Ground Controller must ensure that Match Sheets are filled in correctly. Our club incurs a $25 fine if the names of either the Home Team or the Away Team are not recorded on the Official Match Sheet. We can also be fined if the match sheets are unsigned or not completed with Coach & Manager names and shirt numbers.

 

- Please ensure all matches start on time and that a referee is available for all games. A Ground Appointed Referee should be appointed in the absence of an official referee

2. GROUND SUPERVSION

 

It is the responsibility of all Lilli Pilli FC teams playing at home to provide a designated “Ground Controller” for each ground in operation. The person must be clearly visible to the referee and wear the official Ground Control jacket, available from the canteen. Their responsibilities include;

 

- Ensuring that all players and spectators follow accepted standards of behaviour

 

- Ensuring that spectators do not encroach onto the playing field during matches and that the area behind goal posts are clear of spectators

 

- Ensuring that there are no hazards on or around the playing field (including dogs)

 

-Taking note of any incidents or injuries

-No person can be both Ground Controller and Manager at any one time.

 

 

·       At the completion of the day’s play will then return the Ground Control Jacket to the Canteen/Ground Control Area.

 

A full description of Ground Control duties are listed on pages 38 to 41 in the Sutherland Shire Football Association Rule Book and By Laws 2010 (Please see attached copy of relevant pages)

 

·       It is imperative that Ground Controllers ensure teams consume no alcohol on site.

Canteen

 

The canteen is operated independently of Ground Control. Therefore, there will be no rostered canteen shifts as part of Ground Control Duty.

 

Please do keep an eye out for our canteen staff to ensure that they are okay and be available should they require a quick break to visit the toilet or obtain stock.

 

 

Set Up Reminders

·       Match sheets, keys and canteen money will be available from Lilli Pilli Oval from 7:00 am on Saturday morning.

Please collect the Woolooware High Ground Control Box on your way to Woolooware High. This is to be done by the team performing Ground Control, which will usually be the team playing on Field 2. In the event that Field 2 is not being used, it will be done by the team playing on Field 1.

 

·       The first games are usually scheduled to start from 8am onwards. It is always a good idea to check the draw for minor variations to this time.

• Match sheets will be kept on a Ground Control Table which will be established under the awning of the amenities block.

 

• At least four adults to arrive at Woolooware High at 7:00 am (or about one and a half hours before the start of the first match to set up the nets and corner posts.
• All equipment for Set Up is located in the equipment storeroom which is located at the rear of the Amenities Block.
• Please check the field and surrounding areas for ‘foreign’ objects such as glass or bottles prior to the start of the first match.
• The rubbish bins provided will need to be moved over to the newly installed green boom gate, on the southern side of the School hall.
• Line marking may need to be done. If required, all equipment is located in the equipment room at the rear of the amenities block.

Pack Up Reminders

·       The goal posts do not need to be disassembled as they are permanent structures.

·       All equipment, including the nets and corner flags need to be packed away and neatly stored in the equipment storeroom located at the rear of the amenities block.

·       Please pick up any rubbish left lying around the amenities black, change rooms, playing field or spectator areas. The rubbish bins will be collected by Council.

·       All doors and gates need to be securely closed and locked. (equipment room, canteen, toilets)

·       Match sheets, completed accident forms, keys and all canteen money (Woolooware High Ground Control Box) needs to be returned to Lilli Pilli Oval canteen as soon as possible after closure (before 5:00 pm).

·       A Committee member will be rostered on ‘Close Duty’ at Woolooware High to monitor Pack Up only.

 

 

 

Parking- Special Considerations

·       Parking is allowed within the carpark of the Woolooware High School, with entry off Restormal Street. We have been asked NOT to park on Captain Cook Drive as it is dangerous, illegal, and doing so may result in those persons being fined.

Thank you for your help with the efficient organisation of our Club! If you have any suggestions which may improve our organisation for Set Up, Ground Control or Pack Up please let us know!
