RPT update
Team captains
This is just a general update to let you all know about some important things.
Draws
Draws are available here: http://www.royalparktouch.com/season-draw/.
The bottom two grades have now been set, after next weeks rounds the top two grades will be split into three and a draw for the rest of the season will be published.
Also note that during December and early January the kick off of the first game will be pushed back to 6:10 PM.
Uniforms penalties begin this week
We have received some questions about uniforms and what constitutes a uniform at RPT. For the first 7 rounds the only requirement is that a team is clothed in tops (t-shirt, polo, etc) of a similar colour. The tops do not need to be the same but they do need to be close enough in colour and design that the referee can tell players are on the same team.
Teams may be penalised for players not in uniform. The penalty will be in the form of tries per player not clothed in matching top awarded to the non offending team (up to a maximum of 2 tries).
After next week (week
the same policy applies to unique numbers on the back, numbers can be in taped on but they must be legible to the referee.
BBQ and Great Northern Hotel
