<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Selectors need to be players, preferably with Australian representation experience at a Senior level however this is not essential, they are required to be flexible and assist the coaches
of each team in the selection of their respective squads against the pre-agreed set of criteria, said criteria will be distributed to players and selectors prior to selections.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Where a squad is selected it is preferably that the selectors remain the same for any down-selection process during a subsequent training camp, cost of travel to these training camps is something
to be looked at by the committee at the next meeting to be held at the Nationals (Rees please add to the agenda). When appointing selectors if possible, dependant on the nominations received, the selectors will be from different states to provide as impartial
a selector panel as possible.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Coaches will not have a say in the selection of non-selection of players in the normal scheme of things, selectors will assess each player on the merits with the Coach only consulted where
the selectors believe they have two players of similar skill level and are unable to determine which player should be included in the team, however this is an exception not the rule.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

March, all U19 Men interested in selection and attending the 2014 International Competition will be required to nominate their intent to Sandra, Junior Team Manager, by a date to be announced during the Nationals and be prepared to attend the training/selection
camp date/location tbc. Selectors for the Men's teams would be required to attend the training camp, in consultation with Steve, to provide the required impartial selection process the other teams will be provided with at Nationals.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
