Hi Tornados.
You may recall I wrote to the SHF a couple of months ago requesting amongst other things, that they review their registration rules and about Tornados players umpiring.
I have had a very positive response to both questions
Player Registration
a) The SHF have agreed to consider a review of their rules to allow players to play in a higher team. The SHF have asked for examples of how leagues in other countries manage this and for us to present it to the SHF clubs. I have examples of what is done in the UK but if any of you have good examples from other contries please forward to me.
b) Enforcement of player eligibility against NRIC cards. The SHF have agreed to consider this
Umpiring
a) The SHF have introduced a feedback form this season, i would encourage all captains and coaches to use these.
b) Tornados members as Umpires. The SHF would welcome any qualified umpires from the club. You don't need to be qualified in Singapore but they would need evidence of qualification from your own or another country. Currently we have one Tornado umpiring for the SHF - Lawrence. If anyone else is interested in umpiring please let me know and send a copy of your qualification.
If anyone not yet qualified, is interested in umpiring, please let me know. There is a course happening on the 5th July and other courses happen throughout the year.
Other queries
THe SHF also shared with us their insurance policy details and we will be advising members about possible insurance options in the near future. They will also look to address the imbalance in number of games played by some leagues
Please note the proposed changes to player registration are not confirmed but at least we are having a dialogue and moving in the right direction.
Thanks for reading
Jacqueline
Club President
