ENSURE ALL PARENTS HAVE READ AND SIGNED OFF ON THE PUMAS CODE OF CONDUCT FORM & WEB POLICY FORM.

We will be asking all managers to please collect the signed copies from all parents by the third game of the season. Information to follow.

  • Issue Team Contact Sheet to all players and ensure parents have both Coach’s and

Manager’s contact details.

  • Issue club singlets to all players and maintain a list of names and player numbers. The playing tops must be returned to you at the end of the season.
  • Distribute and forward any Club flyers and emails (e.g. Merchandise sales, newsletters) to all players.
  • Inform players that they can get a discount at Sports Power Joondalup if they say they play

for the Pumas.

  • Maintain Tally Sheet with who plays each week. This will need to be handed in at the end of the season so that we can keep a track of games played for milestone awards & trophies.
  • Prepare a Scoring Roster so each parent can assist with scoring on game days.
  • Collect tokens and complete Score Sheet on game days.
  • Liaise with Treasurer to ensure all registration fees are collected by Round 2. Cheques

can be placed in the Pumas Box at the stadium or passed directly to the treasurer.Fees must

be paid by round two. Any “unfinancial” players on or after round three will not be eligible to play until fees have been paid in full. It is up to the coach and manager to assist the club by enforcing this rule. Any team that plays an un-financial player will lose points for those games. This will be enforced this season.

  • Award ‘50 game’ certificates where required. Please contact Doné (Registrar) if you require any.
  • End of season:

Complete re-enrolments at the end of the season where necessary.

Please Note:

  • Pumas Committee contact list is attached to help you direct any queries you may have.

Thank you for agreeing to be a manager for our club. The job you do is invaluable to the organisation and smooth running of the Pumas and your time and efforts are much appreciated.
