If a Team would like to protest a match result, player eligibility or any other incident which is related to the match, the team Coach or Manager should email the Club Secretary ( secretary@kariongunited.com.au )and provide any supporting evidence within 48 hours of the match. The protest / complaint will be reviewed and passed on to CCF.

CCF will then assess the protest / complaint and act or convene a Protest and Disputes Panel for further action.

Examples of protests are disputed match results, eligibility of players, outcomes as a result of abandonment, poor player, coach or spectator behaviour which has not been dealt with by the Match Officials (Referee/Assitants).

Please note this is different to Disciplinary Tribunals and Judiciary as they are to do with player or club behaviour reported by the Match Officials.

This year Kariong United FC have put out a formal grading policy. 

Please familiarise yourself with this if your child is grading this year as it will help you understand the process.

The Policy can be found in the Club "Library"

$550 FINE FOR SMOKING AT A SPORT EVENT

 Please be aware that NSW Health - Tobacco Compliance Officers will now be issuing fines to people found smoking at sporting events.

 Smoking has been banned at sport venues in spectator areas since 7 January 2013 under the Smoke-free Environment Act 2000.

Club members and spectators are still saying that they are not aware of the new regulation and have not been advised by their club.

Unfortunately this excuse will not prevent the individual from receiving a fine but there is a need for clubs to reinforce the awareness of this new regulation.

The fine for smoking at a sporting event is $550 to the individual smoker.
