Matchday Job Allocation

There are a lot of jobs that need to happen in order for our home games to take place, so to distribute these jobs in the fairest manner from the start of the 2009 season we will be allocating roles to each player selected and rotating the roles each week.

Rota:

  • A. Tea preparation and Cleanup (x3) - Set up and clear away all the mess created during the tea interval. This includes wiping the tables, putting dirty crockery in the dish washer and putting any unused food in the bin or back in the fridge.
  • B. Arrange mid innings drinks and prepare pots of tea (x2). Prepare and serve drinks at the 20 over mark. Get the pot of tea brewing and set out the mugs, milk and sugar ready for the tea interval.
  • C. Organise Scoring and Umpire Rotation (x2) . Make sure that umpires and / or scorers are offered rotation every 15 overs maximum and ensure umpires that are soon into bat are relieved so they can get padded up.
  • D. Boundary rope and scoreboard (putting it out and away again) (x2) . Put out the boundary markers and rope and the scoreboard before the game begins. Put it all away at the end of the game.
  • E. Collect Match Fees (x1) . Collect all the match fees (£5 for adults, £3 for U18s) and record those who haven't paid. Pass on the money to the treasurer.
  • F. Delegation, procrastination and everything else (x1). Make sure everyone else does their allocated job! This would typically be the captains role.

Note that all players will still be required to do their share of umpiring and/or scoring.

Job allocations will be announced alongside the team selections and players will also be reminded of their duties at the beginning of the game. If you do not to complete your designated role to the satisfaction of the captain, it may affect your selection for future games. Thanks for your co-operation.
