RULES
- Matches will be 5-a-side; Y5/6 GIRLS ONLY.
- All other match conditions to be agreed between competing schools before kick-off.
- Teachers to referee. Alternatively, a qualified referee may take charge but they must have been CRB checked. Parents without appropriate qualifications are not permitted to referee according to ESFA rules. A common sense, friendly approach is encouraged – many of the girls will have never played before!
- It is the responsibility of BOTH schools to arrange games. Please try and do this by email so that if a school is being difficult, there is a written record which can be used to adjudicate matches that aren’t played.
MISCELLANEOUS
- To book a pitch, the school office must call the GOALS Centre on 0208 595 7000 (ask for a 7-a-side pitch, schools use). Pitches are available until 5 p.m.
- Bring a ball, bibs and first aid (including water).
- Players need shin guards and trainers or astro-boots/moulds.
- Results to be emailed to mblooman@st-vincent.bardaglea.org.uk as soon as possible.
- Failure to comply with any rules invalidates insurance and risks legal action if an accident takes place.
CODES OF CONDUCT
It is expected in schools’ football that all involved maintain high standards regarding fair play and sportsmanship. Please ensure that the codes of conduct for players, coaches and spectators are strictly maintained. In this way we can maintain the good reputation of Barking & Dagenham Schools. Copies are available on the website.
