Selection Policy

Adelaide University Touch Club has two conflicting needs that arise when teams are being selected to represent the club at weekly touch club competitions. Players who wish to play at high levels and players who wish to play socially with people of their choosing. This selection policy has been written to cater for both of these groups of people.

This policy was adopted at the April 2010 committee meeting and may be reviewed from time to time.
 
1. Nomination and Inclusion.

Nominations will be called for by the committee for various competitions throuout the year. Members of the club are welcome to nominate to play in any of these competitions, and upon payment of the appropriate fee, every effort shall be made by the club to ensure that they are included in a team.

 

2. Selection Committee.
The club committee shall appoint a selection committee before each season who shall be responsible for selection of teams.
 
3. Nomination Form.
Accompanying the nomination will be a option for the player to choose 'competitive' or 'social' selection. Each player shall be able to pick either option. A non-selection of an option shall be treated as a 'competitive' selection. [(edit for Summer 2010-11:) all nominations shall be treated as competitive unless a request is made to be considered as a social selection using the appropriate form]
 
4. Competitive Selection Policy.
Players who select the competitive selection option shall be ranked on current performance and selected according to their playing ability and team composition requirements.  A player selected under this scheme may be moved up or down teams in consultation with the coaches depending on on-field and off-field performance.
 
5. Social Selection Policy.
Players who select the 'social' option shall have the right to request to play with, (or not with) any member of the club that they choose.  Upon a similar request from the other player in question, every attempt to fulfill that request shall be made. These players shall be selected in conjuction with the competitive selection nominations, however, these players may be selected in a team below their own standard in order to fulfill the request. Requesting to play in the same team with any more than 2 other players is discouraged and such a request can only be met at absolute discression of the selection committee. Players selected under the 'social' selection policy can be moved up or down teams, provided their request is continued to be fulfilled.

Using the Video Camera

Before handing over the video camera, please ensure that all batteries are charged, all tapes that are with the camera have either had their material transferred over, or are labelled and are wound to a point where no useful material will be taped over. Make sure that the all cables, including the firewire cable for transferring video are contained in the camera bag unless the camera is to be returned to you for transferring and editing material.

When filming games, try to follow these guidelines:

  • Take the lens cap off and point the camera at where you are filming before you start recording
  • Use a tripod if possible to provide greater stability, or pan slowly so people will not feel sick watching what you have recorded
  • Shoot with the viewer screen visible so you keep a better eye on the play rather than looking through the viewfinder
  • Try to keep shots relatively wide while ensuring that you can see the ball (we don't want a 'video for ants!'). Doing this will increase the value of any video taken for coaching purposes. As we only have one camera shooting, the value of a wider shot overrides the value of closeups.
  • Make sure that the exposure is the correct setting for the light conditions.
  • Film at one of the ten metre lines or behind the dead ball line.
  • Turn the mike off if you're going to provide potentially embarassing commentary (or leave it on ;) )

 

Waite Competition Policies and Procedures

Payment of Referees

Referees are paid according to their level on an increasing scale, so that the more games they officiate, the more they get paid.  Payment details are as follows:

Ref. level    1-7 games     8-15 games     15+ games
   0              $10                     $11            $13
   1              $11                     $12            $14
   2              $12                     $13            $15
   3              $15                     $16            $18
 

Payment of Waite Competition assistants and organisers

The Waite Co-ordinator(s) and Referee Co-ordinator(s) positions are voluntary and as such are not paid directly for the role. 
 
However, the co-ordinator may be paid for desk duties throughout the season.  Desk-sitters are paid at the same rate as the level 0 referees for each of the three timeslots for the 16 weeks of competition.   ** 
 
The referee co-ordinator, if they themselves are a referee, will be paid at one level above their true level.  ** 
 
** to be confirmed by the committee and club treasurers.
 
 
 

Club Member's Financials

Hi everyone,

Reminder that fees are due THIS FRIDAY, 24th NOVEMBER.

I've attached a list of the money paid/owed by every member of the club. There are no figures listed for sports association fees as i'm unsure as to who is a student. Students of Adelaide University owe $33, while other members owe $66. Once paid this will last for a year except for students who (as it has been outstanding) will need to pay again in o'week next year.

Hope this makes sense. If not, please feel free to email me at treasurer(at)autouch.org.au or tahlia.christie(at)student.adelaide.edu.au
