Managing

What do Managers do?

Managers support the coaches and are the main organisers for their team.

A manager must take responsibility for the planning and organising of the team. This allows the coach to concentrate on coaching. It is important that coaches and managers are clear about what each of them is to do and that they communicate well.

Managers should:

Attend weekly team practice
Ensure players know where and when the team practices
Ensure players know where and when they are playing each week
Fill out the incident form for any injuries etc that may occur (at practice or game)
Inform grade convenor of any changes in contact details of their team members
Inform grade convenor of any new member to their team
Collect any unpaid fees

Ensure results from Saturday’s game is passed to convenor

Organise their team’s contribution to any club sponsorship event for the year
Inform convenor of any team issue/discipline problem
