ROLE OF THE UMPIRE/OFFICIAL 1. In curling, as in most sports, umpiring is performed by dedicated volunteers without whom the sport could not progress. 2. The role of the Umpire has been established to ensure fair play between two or more teams in any competition. Umpires act as a complement to the game, working with the teams in a fair and neutral manner within the rules of the game, doing measurements and intervening only to make a correction or following a breach of the rules. 3. Umpires' decisions must be made in fairness and sound judgement relative to the rules in the World Curling Federation "Rules of Curling and Rules of Competition" booklet. 4. All Umpires must have a thorough knowledge of the rules, their interpretation and implementation. Within the umpiring system, dependent on the assignment, the Umpire should have a sound knowledge of the record sheets, scoreboards, measuring devices, hog line discipline, statistics and time clocks. All play an important part in the smooth running of any competition while allowing an Umpire to "specialise" within a preferred area. 5. The game is first, and foremost, for the curlers and the role of the Umpire is secondary. 2. OFFICIALS: ENFORCERS OR LEGISLATORS? Extracts from an article by Kevin Merkle (Associate Director Minnesota State High School) Officials must remember that their job is one of enforcers, much like a police officer. When officials decide what rules to enforce they become legislators – or rule makers – and that is not their role. Just as it is not the role of the police officer to decide whether or not to enforce a particular law, or to "make up" the laws that they will enforce. There will always be some inconsistency, but when officials decide which rules to enforce they are manipulating the game and creating much more inconsistency. This causes frustrations for players, coaches, and fans and leads to problems with sportsmanship and criticism of officials. The interpretation of rules cannot be dependent upon the opinion of an individual official or even a group of officials. Coaches, players, and fans deserve to know how the rules will be
