U13 grades start on May 6/7 (and only Premier, U23 and U17A starts on April 22, everything else begins on April 29/30)
Emails – We have kept some emails attached to teams from 2022 until we get advised from clubs as to who is coaching
Duty – U15 and U16 duty will normally provide two people before or after their game. We have noted when a team needs to provide four people instead though (this will usually happen to the middle game in a “block” of three games)
Formats – we have just finished off the draft of competition formats for all grades (except Sub-grades, which do not conclude with any playoffs or finals). Piet Van Hasselt has already been involved in this, with the Competitions Committee to approve it becoming final
Confirmed Entries – there are a few teams that are still not 100% confirmed, so there is a chance we have to adjust the draw and formats if there are any changes from what has been communicated to us (UPDATE – we do have a WD1 Change, and are working through a revised format here)
