If you do not turn up for the duty assigned to you, or you do not complete your duty as required, your child will be scratched from all their events and will take no further part at any regional or state competition.
If you cannot do the duty assigned to you, you are responsible for finding another person to do that assigned duty, and advise the Knox LAC Team Manager without delay of the change.
Please remember, that when performing a duty, LAVic requires that you must wear enclosed shoes when officiating, (no thongs, sandals). Please see information on performing your duty in the Athlete Information booklet.
