<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I thought I would take the opportunity to email all members regarding the refereeing this pennant.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Tasmania is very lucky to have a reffing community which includes some of the most qualified and experienced refs in world hockey.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">They are the core of the 19 guild refs, who share the load of pennant games.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There were 2 tribunals due to poor player behaviour. No further incidents were reported during the pennant however, it is imperative that we have self-discipline and display appropriate behaviour as poor behaviour affects the integrity
of the sport and will cause people to not want to play.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I held 2 introductory ref’s courses during the year with 18 people attending and next year I would like to expand the courses to a Level 1.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A great suggestion received was to have a virtual “how to ref” course on Facebook. This would initially focus on the mechanics of reffing rather than the rules and then go into the rule book as things progressed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The courses are all about educating all of us in reffing in both the rules and the how tos.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A huge thanks to all the guild refs and to the TUHA community for supporting them and I encourage everyone to have a go at guild reffing. I would like to encourage the juniors to get in and have a go at reffing as well. There are plenty
of experienced members that can guide you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">See you all poolside.<o:p></o:p></p>
