Q&A

  • Has a ref has been organised ? Yes, the SJRC is providing one
  • Will the canteen be open for food and drink. Yes – The canteen will be open with BBQ and a fridge full of sugary goodness
  • What’s with parking? The ground can get jammed real fast on big days like this. Best idea is to park at the beach across the road where there is tons of parking.
  • Each Side needs to provide a registered Assistant Ref to run the sidelines
  • Home Side to provide a ground marshall.
COVID PLAN
For community sporting activities that involve more than 100 participants, the organiser must have a COVID-19 Safety Plan for community sporting competitions and full training activities.
Participants include players, people who are training, officials and spectators.
More than one parent may attend community sporting activities if physical distancing of at least 1.5 metres can be maintained between people that are not from the same household.
The maximum number of participants at a community sporting activity is 3000 people, or one person per 2 square metres (whichever is less).
Record keeping for attendees must take place for all community sporting activities of more than 100 people where this is practical.
Please be prepared for changes to this plan
