BDJRL will NOT tolerate poor behaviour towards Match Officials.

Heading into the last round this weekend emotions are heightened for teams wanting the top 4 spot.

Don’t be THAT spectator, coach, trainer or player that feels the need to berate, intimidate, abuse or heckle a touch judge or centre referee.

Nothing nice to say, then say nothing at all, if your emotions are getting away from you walk away. They are human, they make mistakes and certainly not perfect BUT WE NEED THEM

Instead of being THAT person, at the end of the match thank them.

Importantly if they are wearing green socks they are MINORS and some still learning BE NICE

Match official abuse is not tolerated, no excuses ever.

Sharing again in case you missed it!!!

Read it, explain it to your teams. No excuses

Let’s just play footy without the rubbish!

MELEE ESCALATION POLICY.

What is a melee?

A melee is any on-field altercation, push-and-shove, or fight between players.

As a player what do I need to do?

If an incident of foul play happens on the field, DO NOT become involved, walk away and retreat from the area. Allow the Match Officials to deal with the issue at hand.

As coaching staff what do we need to do?

Stay OFF the field, allow Match Officials to deal with the situation. Under NO circumstances should you go onto the field to remove players, pull players off others.

As parents or spectators what do we need to do?

STAY OFF THE FIELD. Allow the Match Officials deal with the situation in ALL circumstances.

As a Club what do we need to do?

Educate your players and coaching staff on the Melee Policy.
