Thank you

Hey,

Can i ask when are the participating teams allowed to move their equipment over to SPE? Are we allowed to shift the equipment one day before in the evening and store it there, ie on 25/8, 1/9 and 8/9?

Thanks.

Cheers

Hi,

Yes, you may move all equipment to SPE on the eve of the competition dates. However, we will not be responsible for them if anything happens.

Hi

To All Team Captains, please ensure that all players fill in the indemnity form attached. Print out a hard copy and submit on the First day of the competition. One form per person (ie. if someone plays IVP and Opens, ONE form is sufficient). You can submit the forms when the team registers for their first match.

Please do not send us a soft copy. We will not print it out for you.

Players who do not submit their indemnity form will NOT BE ALLOWED to play until it is submitted.

Thank you!
Denise

Hi,

This year, we are having a major shortage of referees due to NS, other committments as well as some referees with their certs already expired.

Due to this problem, we are having difficulties arranging who refs which games. We are trying not to put female refs for Mens games as far possible (lots of problems from last yr's Nat Champs). We cannot put people to ref matches that are just before or after their own match.

So, I am asking everyone if they mind those with expired ref certs to continue refereeing for this year's Nat Champs. Currently we have only 20 qualified refs. If those with expired certs ref, we will having around 27.

Referees whose certs have expired and do not wish to ref, please let me know.

Thank you
Denise

If they are allowed to, doesn't this mean all the teams can still change their players?

Thanks in advance for answering my queries. Cheers!

Hello? It's been sometime? Can any of the organisers help answer my queries? Anyone there? Helloooooooo....

Hi

Teams will no longer be allowed to change players.

Hi

Due to constraints, we have to cut short the competition period.
Thus, Day 1 (26th Aug - Sat) will start at 1pm and end at 5pm. We have shifted several matches around (not just shift them down as some teams will be playing more than twice which is unfair to them). I've removed all walkover matches to save time.

I know that there are players playing for more than one team (IVP and Opens). I tried to schedule it so that the MAJORITY of the players will not play back to back games. For teams who have players in more than 2 teams (eg. IVP players – some on Opens team 1 and some in Opens team 2), I cannot accommodate all players as there are just too many.

Please be punctual for your matches. Teams MUST register at least 3 matches before theirs (1 hour before), except those who play the first few matches of the day (just register before your match).Teams who fail to register at least 3 matches will be DISQUALIFIED (walkover).

Teams may start getting ready for their game (get into the boats) once the match before theirs begin their second half. Enter only by the goal line. Do not enter by the side line. Different teams from the same school (ie. NP1 and NP2) having consecutive matches will be given a few minutes to facilitate the change over of boats. We seek the co-operation of everyone to do this quickly as the time given in between games is only 5 minutes. Please also refrain from doing any ball passing or other activities that may interfere with the ongoing game.

Team managers/captains can register as early as they wish. However, identification must be presented upon registration as well as the indemnity form (first day/registration).

There will be a short team managers’ briefing on the first day (26th Aug) to discuss official duties as well as pass you all the official SCF receipt for the team registration. The meeting will be held at SPE, 11am.


Scrutineering will commence on Saturday 26th Aug at 9am and will end at 12pm. Equipment to be scrutineered includes boats, paddles, helmets and PFDs.

Thank you!
Denise

Thank you for pointing that out. I have swapped your match to the 1000 - 1020 slot, and had to change several other teams so that they will have sufficient rest. Other teams please take note and take a look at the schedule again. Sorry for changing it AGAIN.

I have also tried my best to accomodate to the other school's requests. Here is the FINAL MATCH SCHEDULE. NO MORE REQUESTS WILL BE ENTERTAINED UNLESS THAT TEAM (not individual player(s)) IS PLAYING BACK TO BACK AS MENTIONED ABOVE.

As I have stated before, players playing for two teams may have to play several matches (3-4) a day. Please remember that the competition spans only 4 and a half days. I have to squeeze the matches!

Under officials, the school/team mentioned for that particular match will just have to send representatives to help out as goalline judge, score and timekeeper. Details will be provided at the team managers' meeting on Sat 26th at 11am, SPE.

I thank you all for your kind understanding and patience with us.

Regards,
Denise

To prdgy & Co,

Thank you very much to take the step to organise this year's National Champs. I do think there's a big group of us appreciate the efforts you guys made. Let's hope that the National Champs will run extremely smoothly!!!

However, thou nothing can b perfect, I do wish the refereeing can b a whole lot better than the last time. (not referring to those who had done good & those who neva ref the National Champs 2005.) *blink*

All the best to all!
