GRADING DRAW for first games on Friday 10th May - are now live
https://www.sporty.co.nz/kaipara/draws/2024-grading-draws?em=1
TACTICAL CHANGE RULE for our grade:
- only the player ON COURT can call for the tactical change - NOT the coach or manager or anyone on the sideline
- tactical changes can only be made after a goal is scored, the player must notify the umpire and can only be made when it is your teams centre pass NOT the opposing team
- each team is only allowed to make 4 x tactical changes per game
- all tactical changes must be made quickly to avoid disruption to the game as all games at KNC are centrally timed so the ability to hold time is not available for games
- no tactical changes can be made in the last TWO minutes of each quarter
- tactical change rule is not compulsory so if you prefer to make team changes at quarter time breaks that you have that option as well
