Part of the Match Card needs to be completed before the game and part
needs to be completed after the game. It is important that Match Cards are
completed correctly. When errors occur, no matter how small they seem, Tahmoor
Club is fined. As Manager, it is important that if you cannot be there on the
day, that there is another person who can do the job and who
knows how they are to be completed.
TO BE DONE BEFORE THE GAME
Outside of card:
Example Outside
-
It is the responsibility of the Home team to complete the outside (right side) section, relating to the home details. See example. This is to be done before the game.
-
Do not complete anything on the left side until after the game.
& Inside of card:
Example Inside
-
Use surnames only - no initials or first names.
-
All rego numbers must be included, including for the coach and manager.
-
Seethe Tips below for filling out the Card when there is no single goalkeeper.
-
Any players who are not on the field at the start must have an (R) for reserve next to the name. If a player is written in before the game, but the player does not come to the game, do not cross out the player's name, but place an (R) against the player on the card.
-
If players are borrowed from another team, indicate the team they are from.
TO BE DONE AFTER THE GAME
-
Check the details the referee writes down as soon as possible, preferably before the referee leaves - ie players stood down, score, etc and sign the back of the form. Do not write anything else on the back, this is the referee's job.
-
IIf you do not agree with the score talk to the referee. If the ref is gone, do not sign the match card, and let the club know ASAP so that they can follow this up. If any players are sent off, the secretary of the club needs to know by 6.30pm on Sunday with the players name, rego number, team and offence code.

Tip for Filling out the Match Card
1.
Player and Official Information
Keep a list of the team with all the
information you need to complete the form.
Better yet, use the blank version of the Match Card on our website and
complete it as you would every game.
Leave it in the kit bag so that
someone else has it if you cannot attend.

2.
When There is no Single Allocated
Goalkeeper
Older mini and younger junior teams
should not have a single allocated goalkeeper. The best way to complete the card
is to allocate each player to the same shirt number (all except No1).
Complete the Match Card as per this list.
On game day, when you know who is
going to be the goalkeeper first, cross out that number (a single line) and put
the number “1” next to the crossed out number.

What if You are Not Sure?
When in doubt - ask any member of the
committee for advice. If needing help filling out match cards, ask - even if you
are at an Away match.
