Chairman’s Foreword
Welcome to the new County Handbook which I hope you will find to be a useful source of valuable information about our County and our Clubs. I hope that you find the fixture lists a useful feature, enabling you to support our Bucks Clubs.
Please also refer to our Website: bucksrfu.pitchero.com This site holds all the relevant information and news about Bucks Rugby. Please contact the Webmaster if you have any information or news that needs to be shared. Remember, the website is only as good as its content so let’s all contribute!
The season 2015/16 was again a huge success for Rugby in the County with the Bucks U 20 XV reaching the semi-final of the county plate competition and the senior XV also getting to the semi- final of their competition. This is the furthest either team have reached in the County’s history.
As a County we seem to produce some very talented players, and this is very much down to the Clubs and Schools in our area being “Development” focused and ensuring that the most talented get the exposure they deserve.
We intend as County to continue this theme every season and ensure that as many players as possible have the opportunity to play at their highest potential level. Our purpose as a County is: "Developing Life Long Participation in Rugby"
We can only produce this handbook thanks to the very generous and ongoing support of Risk Management, Honda, Dayla, and Run Print Run. We are very grateful to them all.
I would like to thank Shelley Pigott for putting this handbook together. This takes a lot of hard work which Shelley does uncomplainingly for the County. We all owe her a debt of gratitude.
May I also take this opportunity to encourage you in asking your Club members to consider joining the County as a Vice President.
Finally, I thank our outgoing President Chris Smith who has had a hugely positive influence during his year of office. I welcome our new President Gwyn Stone from Marlow RFC and new Senior Vice President Dicky Thomas from Farnham Royal RFC. We are lucky to have such dedicated people. I wish Gwyn our new President, every success and joy in his presidential year and I look forward to visiting Clubs during the coming season.
Chris McCombie

COUNTY QUALIFICATION - PLAYERS
The Executive Committee looks forward with confidence to the coming season and to the continuance of the fullest possible support from all clubs in the County.
The selectors, in their constant endeavour to field the strongest possible side to represent the County in all its matches at whatever age group, would welcome the names of any players qualified to play for Buckinghamshire that a club feels merit inclusion.
Details of such players should be forwarded to the relevant team manager (see Playing Support Structure). The selectors will endeavour to watch all such players and review with club coaches their progress in the selection process.
The County Championship is played according to a two-tier format. Buckinghamshire are in the lower tier and compete for the County Shield. The County aims to gain promotion to the top tier within the next three years. The support of all Member Clubs and their players will be required in order to achieve this objective.
PLAYER ELIGIBILITY: County Championship Regulations 2012-13
1. Subject to Regulations 2 and 3 below and in accordance with RFU Regulation 15 a player may only play in the County Competitions for a County in which:
(i) he was born; or
(ii) he has completed not less than 6 months Residence within the County concerned in the preceding 12 months; or
(iii) he has played for a County in a previous County Competition or National Under 20 Championship and who was qualified to play for that County under the Regulations then in effect. Any such player shall remain eligible to play for that County until such time as he qualifies for and plays for another County in any of the Competitions or the National Under 20 Championship. The only exception to this criterion is where the player was eligible for a County under Regulation 2 below; or
(iv) he is an Effectively Registered Player of a Club allocated to the County on the date of the match.
2. In the Bill Beaumont Cup where the County for which the Player qualifies in accordance with Regulation 1 is in the County Shield he shall be eligible to play in the Bill Beaumont Cup if he holds Effective Registration with a Club at Level 4 or above in the County concerned. For the avoidance of doubt no player may qualify for a County under this Regulation if he is already eligible for a County participating in the Bill Beaumont Cup pursuant to Regulation 1. Eligibility under this criterion will only apply for the current Season. A player selected by a county in the Bill Beaumont Cup is not eligible for selection by that county the following Season under Regulation 1(iii) above.
3. With the intention that players playing in the County Championship Shield are not at a higher level than that ordinarily playing Level 5 and below a Player will be ineligible to play in the County Shield if at any time during the Season or during the course of the competition he:
(i) had Effective Registration with a Club whose 1st XV plays at Level 4 and above or had played in the 1st XV for such a Club
(ii) had played for or under the rules and/or regulations of that union been eligible to play for a club or team in a union other than the RFU of an equivalent level or standard to a Club referred to in Regulation 3(i) above
(iii) was or had been a Loan Player from a Club whose 1st XV plays at Level 4 or above
(iv) had or had been in the Season or the previous twelve months selected to be a member of the match squad for England, England Saxons, England Under 20s, England Students, the England Sevens, the Combined Services, the Barbarians or any national representative team of another Union
(v) had entered into a Contract with a Club whose 1st XV plays at level 4 or above or received any benefit in kind from any such Club or person firm or company connected with such a Club the consideration for which or part of the consideration for which was that the Player was available for selection for or played for the said Club or at its direction.
(vi) is ruled ineligible by the Committee. Note: It is the County’s responsibility to comply with the letter and the spirit of this Regulation 3. If a County has any doubt that a player may be eligible it should ask the Committee for a ruling before the player plays. If a player is ruled ineligible after he has played a County will be liable to severe sanction.
4. No player or named replacement attending on the day of a match may represent more than one County in a Season.
5. A County shall not play or select as a replacement or substitute more than three non-EQPs in any County Competition match.

THE APPOINTMENTS PROCEDURE
Clubs should use the website (www.bucksreferees.co.uk/appointments) for information regarding referee appointments and MUST confirm their game directly with the referee listed during the week prior to the fixture in question. If this requirement is not complied with, the referee shall have the right to seek an alternative game through the Society. The Appointments Secretary will publish forthcoming appointments midway through the preceding month. Clubs MUST inform the Appointments Secretary of any changes to their fixtures as early as possible. If a non-notified fixture change results in the referee travelling unnecessarily the club will be charged. All appointments must be made by the Society’s Officers to ensure that the necessary insurance cover is in place.
WOULD ALL CLUBS PLEASE ENSURE THAT COMPLETED ASSESSMENT CARDS ARE RETURNED AS THESE FORM AN IMPORTANT PART OF A REFEREE’S DEVELOPMENT.
