Thank you for trialling for a position in a Central Coast Hockey Association (CCHA) Representative Team. By agreeing to trial for the team, and by signing this form, you agree to the following conditions:
1. I understand the dates of the Event (Tournament / Carnival / State Championships) and confirm that I will be available for all scheduled day(s) of the Event.
2. I understand that while there are minimal costs to trial for selection in a Representative team, my ongoing participation in a Representative Team will involve some form of monetary payment to cover team out of pocket expenses such as training field hire, team accommodation (if booked by CCHA), team nomination fees, turf fees, umpire fees, food, activities, etc. The approximate amount of the payment will be provided at the trial session(s), with the final player levy to be provided at the first training session following selection of the team. Note that due to late changes to the team, player levies may be subject to variation prior to the Event. In such cases, the Team Manager will keep the team informed.
3. If I am successfully selected in a Representative team and subsequently decide to withdraw from the team for any reason prior to the commencement of the Event (other than for a Medical reason - for which a medical certificate will be required), then I agree to pay the set player levy in full without a refund.
4. The Team Coach has the final decision on the starting line-up for all games and all player interchanges. I understand that depending on the game strategy employed by the Coach, players may not receive equal field time during any or all of the games played at an Event.
5. Any equipment provided to me during trials, training or the Event games (eg playing shirts, bibs, balls, cones, etc.) are to be returned to the Team Coach / Manager as soon as possible.
6. I agree to abide by all requirements and requests set down by the Team Coach / Manager or an CCHA official at all times, and to the Player Code of Conduct as outlined by Hockey NSW. I understand that any poor or inappropriate behaviour will be dealt with by the Team Coach / Manager. Any serious breaches of conduct will be referred to the CCHA Executive for investigation which may involve meeting with the CCHA Judiciary Panel.
7. In the case of a medical emergency, I provide authority for the Coach / Manager or other CCHA Official to provide any assistance deemed necessary – including a request for an Ambulance
8. In the case of a concussion related injury, I agree to be guided by the policies of Hockey NSW, Hockey Australia and CCHA, and I understand CCHA may make a final decision in relation to the safety of me/my child returning to play and this decision is final.
9. I accept the nomination fee of $50 and realise this will be deducted from any player fees I am required to pay. If I withdraw, without a valid reason or within 7 days of the tournament, I accept I may forfiet my $50 nomination fee and this is at the discretion of the CCHA board of directors.
