Marist Canberra Football Club

Marist Canberra Football Club cannot function without Team Managers.  They greatly assist with the running of a team and relieve the Coach of administrative matters,  leaving the them free to concentrate on coaching. 

Please complete the 2010 Volunteer Form if you wish to take on this role.

The Manager’s main responsibilities are:

• Paying the referee and assistant referees’ fees, which are reimbursed by the Club.
• Providing the referee with match cards.
• Checking and signing the cards after the match and returning the card to Marist Soccer Club by 9.00am the following Tuesday.   Until further notice please use the letter opening in the door of the Year 6 Junior School wing adjacent to the Junior School outdoor area near the flagpoles.  You can also leave it at the Junior School front office.
• U13 - U18 team managers need to phone their teams scores into the Scores Co-ordinator Paul Randles by 5.15pm.  His number is 6291 4236 where an answering machine is there to take your results.
• Drawing up a parent’s roster for washing shirts, canteen duty and half time drinks (plain water is best).  NOTE: shirts should not be ironed as they will disintegrate!
• Obtaining shirts from the Equipment Officer at the beginning of the season and returning at the end of the season.
• Disseminating team lists, the draw and ground locations to parents.
• Be the team point of contact with the Marist Committee and other clubs.
• Ascertain whether any parents have first aid qualifications.

• Dressing and undressing fields when the team is playing at home.  Dressing the field entails collecting the necessary equipment, erecting the goal nets, and inserting corner flags and halfway flags (these should be placed one metre away from the sideline, not right on the sideline).  Undressing fields entails taking down goal nets, the corner flags, and related equipment (mallet, stepladder, etc.) and returning them to the collection point or to the soccer storage room at the College. 
• A schedule indicating which teams are responsible for dressing and undressing the fields is shown on the board outside the storage room each Saturday. 
• The storage room is located beside the southern end of the tennis courts.
• NOTE: the first team to play at the relevant ground must collect the kit, and the last team to play must return all equipment to Marist.
