Hi All,
Just heard from players at last weekends tournament that some teams played 5
games back to back with a limited 30 minute break inbetween!! which they
couldn't take due to the cap overrunning!!
then they only played 2 games on the sunday this makes no sense to me!!
Can someone from the mixed committee or the organisers explain why that was
the case?? as that sort of schedule is not helpful to players of any level of
fitness, and will only injure players etc!! giving them limited time to get
food on board will only add to injuries!!
i quote from the H&S part on the ukua tournament guidelines on the website
below, pay particular attention too the first line!!!
Health and Safety
The health and safety of the competitors, staff and spectators at any
Tournaments is of paramount importance. UK Ultimate sanctioned events have a
required minimum level of medical cover and Health and Safety standards.....
This situation really needs to be looked at as i thought this type of crazy
scheduling was a thing of the past!!! and we had eradicated it!!
Grayson, Hannah & Jamie over to you!!
Si.b (nearly retired)
p.s. i wasnt there last weekend, but i would have coped with the physical
stress and kept running all day as always!!
