Role of the Team Manager:

Between Clubs, there may be slight variations in the role of the team manager, but generally, the following guidelines might be useful:
•
The Team Manager will generally oversee the organisation and smooth running of the team. If there are more than 3 (2 for Pennant) in a team, the team manager may need to organise a roster. For any children who have not played before they might require additional information e.g. starting time, fees etc.
•
Team managers decide on the order of merit of players. Players can rotate positions during the first 5 weeks to assist with deciding ongoing positions. Once the Order of Merit has been decided, this cannot be changed except when a player is absent. Other team members may then be moved up the ranking accordingly. Players must not be moved down in the order of merit. E.g. A number 1 ranked player cannot play at the number 3 position at any time. A Club may request a change to the playing order only up to the final home and away match. This must be in the form of an email to the K&DJTA committee to discuss and decide. No changes are permitted during the Finals series.
•
Team managers are responsible for opening up the clubhouse and providing the balls at home games.
•
Home managers input results on MatchCentre and away managers approve the results of the matches.
•
If you experience any difficulties talk to your Junior Club Co-Ordinator or an Executive Member of the Association.
