7 GUIDELINES FOR BENCH OFFICIALS As fficials f the game, Bench Officials shuld present high standards in the way in which they carry ut their duties and cnduct themselves. The fllwing standards are expected fr Bench Officials: Bench Officials shuld be dressed unifrmly. Suggested standards are plain-clured tidy trusers/skirts (preferably dark) with plain-clured shirt/tp (r spnsr s tp if prvided). Appearance must be tidy and presentable. Behaviur must be impartial (that is withut bias) twards either team. Demeanur must be pleasant, c-perative and efficient. Cncentratin and fcus must be n the match at all times; there shuld be n casual r unnecessary talk during play. N fd is t be n the Official Bench r eaten during a match. Hydratin (water bttles r spill-prf cups) may be used and may be visible but any markings n cntainers shuld nt cnflict with spnsr s prducts. Where successive matches are t be fficiated, Bench Officials may require sustenance. Hwever, Bench Officials shuld mve away frm the Official Bench t cnsume fd, thus ensuring that the Official Bench remains tidy and clean. Mbile phnes must nt be visible r used by any Bench Official. Only headphnes used fr fficial purpses and directly related t the match may be wrn. Befre the match starts, Bench Officials must ensure they have all necessary equipment and must check it is in wrking rder refer Check List (page 43). Bench Officials must be in place in the playing enclsure well befre the match starts and shuld remain there fr the duratin f the match. 7

8 Presentatin f the Scre Sheet - key cmpetencies All fficial recrds frm a match shuld be cmpleted in a neat and tidy manner. Crssing ut material and erasures indicate pr skills and inadequate training. In particular the scre sheet shuld be clear and easily read. The fllwing prvide guidelines: Legibility all figures, writing and symbls used (including dts) must be clearly and cnsistently frmed. Printing, nt handwriting, shuld be used at all times. Size all writing and figures shuld be written neatly and legibly and shuld fit inside the bxes and spaces prvided. Mathematical skills all ttals and statistics shuld be accurately calculated and shuld be checked a secnd time. Errrs must be crssed ut with a tidy straight line - hrizntally, diagnally r with an X thrugh the incrrect items; scribble-uts r blck uts shuld be avided. NO whiteut r text erasing is allwed n any match dcuments this includes scre sheets, team lists, substitutin sheets and all ther frms used. Guidelines fr Handling Errrs Bth scrers are jintly respnsible fr keeping an accurate recrd f the scre, althugh specific rles have been defined fr each screr. In the case f an errr, scrers are t see if the errr can be identified and rectified easily d nt stp the match. If the errr is nt able t be rectified easily: if it is an issue with Screr 1 s sheet then Screr 2 (Statistician) cntinues t maintain the Running Scre Sheet while Screr 1 identifies and crrects the errr; if it is an issue with Screr 2 s (Statistician s) sheet then Screr 1 cntinues t maintain the fficial Scre Sheet while Screr 2 (Statistician) identifies and crrects the errr. If the umpires disagree n which team is t take a Centre Pass the umpire nearer the Official Bench will d a Pass Check with the screr [Rule (iv) (a)]. If bth umpires indicate the Centre Pass incrrectly, the screr shuld ntify the umpires s a check can be made and ntificatin must be made befre the Centre Pass has been taken [Rule (iv) (a)]. It is recmmended that umpire alerts be used fr this purpse. If umpire alerts are nt available the event rganiser shuld advise the means f ntificatin befre the match. 8

9 Prcess: Scrers t cnfirm incrrect Centre Pass. Scrers t ntify Timer 1, wh activates the umpire alert. If ntificatin prvided prir t Centre Pass being taken, umpires t hld time and seek clarificatin frm Official Bench. If the Centre Pass is taken befre ntificatin can be made, nte this n the Scre Sheet by circling the Centre Pass where the difference ccurred and cntinue in the pattern that the Umpires have indicated. Draw this t the attentin f the Umpires at the end f the quarter. IMPORTANT times t watch! It is essential that the crrect Centre Pass is determined befre it is taken as, nce taken it cannt be crrected. An errr f this kind can affect the utcme f a match, s every effrt must be made t ensure the Centre Pass is taken crrectly. A pssible time fr an errr t ccur is at the start f a quarter. T avid this, the fllwing prcedure is suggested: When they reach the Official Bench, the Umpires will cnfirm the team t take the next Centre Pass. Befre play restarts, the Scrers shuld recnfirm with the Umpires the Centre Pass, bth team and directin. It is a gd idea t frame this as a query fr the Umpire t cnfirm. Remain alert! During play either Umpire may call fr a Pass Check : In respnse, Screr 2 (r Statistician) calls ut the team and indicates with arm signal the pass directin as n the running scre sheet. Centre Pass Prcedure t be used in INF Wrld Ranking matches IMPORTANT - times t watch! The mst cmmn time fr a Centre Pass errr t ccur is when there is a Stppage (e.g. fr injury) immediately fllwing a successful gal. T avid this, the fllwing prcedure shuld be used: Befre play restarts, Screr 2 (r Statistician) shuld indicate clearly by arm signal the directin f the Centre Pass (it is als suggested that yu call the Pass if the Umpire is clse by). 9

31 CALLING PROTOCOLS Guidelines fr Screr 2 (Statistician) When calling it is essential that yu watch play at all times (i.e. d nt have yur head dwn writing) as yu are the nly Bench Official able t watch play at all times. Mst misunderstandings and incrrect entries ccur if the Caller lks away and it is pssible nbdy is mmentarily watching play (e.g. it is assumed a gal has been scred and a Centre Pass will be taken, but in fact the Umpire disallwed the gal and play cntinued). In sme venues it may be helpful fr the Caller t be slightly elevated t ensure an unimpeded view f the Curt. Remember that the key is CONSISTENCY ( within a match and frm match t match ). It is essential that details fr bth teams are recrded in the same way. If yu make a call and it is incrrect, immediately advise Screr 1. Als make a nte n paper f the gal number and check the call further with Screr 1 at the next interval. Centre Pass During play when either umpire calls fr a Pass Check call ut the team and indicate with arm signal the pass directin as n the Scre Sheet. If bth umpires indicate the Centre Pass incrrectly, the screr shuld ntify the umpires s a check can be made and ntificatin must be made befre the Centre Pass has been taken [Rule (iv) (a)]. It is recmmended that umpire alerts be used fr this purpse. If umpire alerts are nt available the event rganiser shuld advise the means f ntificatin befre the match. Prcess: Scrers t cnfirm incrrect Centre Pass. Scrers t ntify Timer 1, wh activates the umpire alert. If ntificatin prvided prir t Centre Pass being taken, umpires t hld time and seek clarificatin frm Official Bench. If the Centre Pass is taken befre ntificatin can be made, nte this n the Scre Sheet by circling the Centre Pass where the difference ccurred and cntinue in the pattern that the Umpires have indicated. Draw this t the attentin f the Umpires at the end f the quarter. If applicable, cnfirm the Centre Pass as Taken r Nt Taken at the end f the quarter. Cnfirm the first Centre Pass f the next quarter with the Umpires at the interval. 31

32 Caller Guidelines fr INF Wrld Ranking matches In additin t the abve calling guidelines, Screr 2 (Statistician) will: Centre Pass Call the team t take the Centre Pass. Timing f this is imprtant try t use a system similar t the umpires. Cnfirm the first Centre Pass f the next quarter with the Umpires at the interval. When play is ready t restart, call the Pass and use an arm signal t indicate the directin f the Pass. If a stppage ccurs immediately after a gal, befre play recmmences use an arm signal t indicate the directin f the Centre pass t restart play and call the team. Gals/Attempts When calling an attempt use Team Name fllwed by Psitin fllwed by either IN r OUT. If a sanctin is taken, this call will be inserted befre IN/OUT. If a gal is scred at the same time as the Umpire blws the whistle t end play, cnfirm with the Umpires whether the gal is t be cunted r nt. Watch fr the gal nt scred hand signal frm the Umpire. D nt cunt a disallwed gal as an attempt (i.e. the shter infringes while taking the sht Held Ball/Ftwrk/Cntact etc). If GD/GK tips/deflects a sht and the attempt is unsuccessful, recrd this as an unsuccessful attempt and call OUT. Similarly if it ges thrugh the ring, it will be called as a successful gal. Sanctins A sanctin is awarded t a team and may be taken by any player allwed in that area f the Curt. A Penalty Pass attempt is recrded against the shter wh tk the sht. If the Umpire advances a Penalty Pass against a mid-curt player int the Gal Circle (i.e. neither the GD nr GK infringed) and a Penalty Pass is played as a sht at gal, recrd the attempt as a Penalty by the shter cncerned. 32

33 Examples invlving Sanctins If the Umpire determines that the cnditins fr a Penalty Pass have nt been met, a further Penalty Pass (which may be advanced if it is judged t be delaying play) will be awarded. Hwever, in sme cases the first sht may have already cmmenced when the secnd is awarded. In such case, tw utcmes are pssible: The sht is successful the Umpire will apply the Advantage Rule and cunt the gal. Scre this as a (penalty) gal. The secnd penalty will nt prceed. The sht is unsuccessful the Umpire will prceed with the secnd Penalty Pass. Recrd ONLY the secnd penalty (gal/attempt). Similarly, if a defender kncks the galpst and causes a sht t miss, a sanctin will be awarded hence the first attempt is nt recrded. If a sanctin is awarded fr an infringement that ccurs after the cmpletin f a Penalty Pass played as a sht at gal, these are tw different sanctins. If a Penalty Pass is taken frm the secnd infringement, bth are recrded n the Scre Sheet. The fllwing examples illustrate these principles: 1. A Penalty Pass is awarded after Obstructin by GD in the Gal Circle. GA takes a Penalty Pass and attempts a sht at gal. An infringement f this penalty ccurs, such as: the infringer (GD) mves ff t early/takes part in play befre the ball leaves the GA s hands; r the ther defender (GK) bstructs/cntacts the player taking the Penalty Pass. These are bth cnsidered an infringement f the sanctin already awarded. Hence the Umpire awards a further Penalty Sht. In the secnd case, BOTH infringers will stand ut while this sanctin is taken. In the event that the ball has already left the shter s hands when the secnd sanctin is awarded: If the first Penalty Pass attempt is unsuccessful, the secnd sanctin is taken in this case, d nt recrd the first penalty attempt ; If the first Penalty Pass attempt at gal is successful, the Umpire will apply the Advantage Rule and rule the gal is t be cunted in this case, recrd it as a successful penalty. 33

34 2. GA takes a Penalty Pass in the Gal Circle with GD standing ut as the infringer. Befre the sht is taken GK cntacts/bstructs GS and the Umpire penalises this. This is a new infringement. The first sanctin has nt been taken. Hence if a Penalty Pass is taken frm the infringement by GK, this is the nly ne recrded. 3. GS attempts a sht at gal frm a Penalty Pass awarded in the Gal Circle. The sht misses and is recrded as an unsuccessful penalty. As the players strive fr the rebund, GK cntacts GS and a further sanctin is awarded. In this case, the sanctins are nt related and bth are recrded. 34

35 TIMEKEEPERS Tw Timekeepers fficiate n each match. The allcatin f duties between the tw Timekeepers may vary accrding t the equipment used and hw duties are divided. The Timekeepers must wrk as a team t ensure accurate and successful cmpletin f all required tasks. The standard practice is fr the Official Time t be recrded using a Manual Timer - cunt-dwn timers shuld be used fr all timing. The interval between first-secnd quarter and third-furth quarter shall be 4 minutes. The length f half time can be either 8 min r 12 min check this befre the match starts. A Real Time Clck shwing secnds is als required. The usual divisin f respnsibilities will be: Timekeeper 1 - Official Timekeeper in additin t using cunt-dwn timers, uses the Manual Timers fr playing time, intervals, stppages and als recrds injury/illness and ther stppages. Timekeeper 2 - uses backup Timers (may be the electrnic timer/screbard) Fr INF Wrld Ranking Matches, Timekeeper 2 als recrds injury/illness/bld and ther stppages Nte: In Australia, Timekeeper 1 manages all injuries/illness/bld and ther stppages. Timekeeper 2 is the backup timer. The electrnic timer/screbard may be perated by Timekeeper 2 r by a separate fficial wh has respnsibility fr this alne. In this latter case, the fficial shuld be seated separately. 1. Umpire Alert Units It is recmmended that an audible sund is used by the timekeeper t indicate the end f each perid f play e.g. air-hrn, with umpire alerts used as backup in the event f a malfunctin. In Australia, if the audible sund and bth umpire alerts malfunctin, the Timekeeper will ntify the Reserve Umpire wh will stand and blw their whistle t end play. Each Umpire wears an Umpire Alert Unit and the Timekeeper signals Warning Times and the end f a Quarter as needed frm a base unit sited n the Official Bench. The Alerts, nce activated, will usually vibrate fr 8 secnds, thus alerting the Umpires. Timekeepers must ensure they understand and are cmpetent in the peratin f the Umpire Alert Units. The Timekeeper activates the Umpire Alert Units at the specified times as needed, including when directed by the Scrers due t an incrrect Centre Pass. Fr cuntdwn warnings, it is usual fr nly the Official Bench side Umpire s Alert t be activated. 35

36 Bth umpires will use the Umpire Alert Unit when fficiating, but the primary umpire will be respnsible fr reacting t the unit when the signal registers. Shuld the primary umpire fail t respnd t the signal fr any reasn, the ther fficiating umpire will immediately respnd. At all ther times, bth Umpire Alert Units are activated simultaneusly as needed. In the event the cntrlling umpire is unaware play shuld end, the c-umpire will signal the end f play [Rule (ii) (a)]. Nte: nly the Umpire s whistle can end play The umpire cntrlling the side line nearer the fficial bench and the gal end t the right when facing the curt shall be the primary respndent. Timer 1 will be the Bench Official in charge f perating the Umpire Alert Unit. The Timekeeper must test all Umpires Alerts befre the match cmmences. As there is usually a time lapse, the Alerts must always be activated 2 secnds befre the time is due t elapse. 2. Timing Equipment Equipment is used t maintain an accurate time recrd f a match by starting and stpping time as indicated by the Umpires. Fur manual timers will be required fr: Match timer indicates playing time remaining in quarter (must be perated by the Timekeeper perating the Umpire Alert Units). Cuntdwn timer t indicate time t match/quarter start. Interval timer t time Intervals (may als be cuntdwn timer). Start match timer and electrnic timer when the Umpire s whistle starts match. Hld (stp) time when the Umpire signals play t stp (whistle, hand signal & eye cntact). Restart time when the Umpire signals fr play t resume. Signal time at the end f each quarter with an audible signal e.g. air hrn r by activating the Umpire Alert Units as needed. Have timer set fr interval duratin. Reset match timer and electrnic timer during the intervals t the apprpriate time fr next quarter 36

37 Stppage timer t time stppages f up t 30 secnds (may als be used fr ther stppages). Maintain visible scre bard and ensure accuracy f scre (if required). Suspensin timer t time suspensin f 2 minutes. The electrnic timer/screbard may be maintained by either Timekeeper (this will depend n the system used in the venue). 3. Cuntdwn Warnings Time cuntdwn fr start f match. Time duratin f interval, including cuntdwn fr restart f play. - 4 min interval between Quarter 1 & 2-4 min between Quarter 3 & 4 - either 8 r 12 min at Half Time (the length is determined by the event rganiser prir t start f match) If a team fails t take the Curt at the scheduled start r restart f play, 30 secnds is allwed fr the team t take the Curt.
