Business Arising: Nil
Treasurer’s Report: Bank Balance as at 31 October 2012 $11,633.83, however an unpresented Cheque of $734.70 would make this figure $12,368.53, which represents a break-even year. The change of $5 per car in Gate takings at Finals ensured we covered the cost of Umpires this year. A big thank you once again to our Major Sponsor Energy Australia (formerly TRUenergy Yallourn) who provided the League with $3,000, and have pledged the same amount for the next 2 Seasons 2013 and 2014.
Correspondence IN/OUT: Nil
Secretary’s Report: What a great year 2012 was and what a fantastic effort by all of those Clubs who hosted Finals this year. The utilisation of both grounds at Yinnar, coupled with the number of different Clubs represented in the second week of Finals amounted in substantial Gate takings which resulted in the League covering the cost of Umpiring. To the Moe Junior Football Club, the Grand Final day was again a great event, following on from 2011. Moe showcased their facilities well and these were appreciated by all concerned. Parents, Spectators, Coaches and Players were all very well behaved throughout the year and the Final series and the beautiful weather just capped it all off. The Latrobe Valley Umpires provided a terrific service once again.
Congratulations to Leongatha U10's, Trafalgar U12’s and Leongatha U14's on their Premiership wins. Your Premiership Pennants are on the way.
A big thank you to Lachlan Sim, Natalie Lambos, Darren Anderson and Craig Skinner for all their efforts on the Executive this year and a special thanks to the Coaches of the Junior Carnival teams
Central Gippsland Junior Football League Inc. A.B.N. 25 109 771 580 27 P.O. Box 20 Newborough Vic 3825 Proudly Supported by Energy Australia in Warwick Baum and Paul Mann (and all of their helpers). In addition, special thanks to Marcelle Anderson for all the action shots that we saw in the paper each week that the LV Express chose to publish them and to Annie Morrow who covered the Junior Carnival photos.
Annual Fees for 2013: As per 2012, this will remain at $40 per team in 2013.
President’s Report: The 2012 CGJFL season has been an outstanding success with 822 players enjoying the experience of playing football in a team environment (805 players in 2011). I would firstly like to acknowledge the volunteer efforts of the League Executive which includes the following, Charles Weir (Newborough), Natalie Lambos (Newborough), Darren Anderson (Yallourn Nth), and Craig Skinner (Newborough). In particular I would like to extend a big thank you to Charles & Natalie for their outstanding contribution. It is with great regret that Natalie will not be returning as League Treasurer in 2013 but I wish her well for the future. I would also like to congratulate Charles on this Honorary Life Membership for services to the CGJFL, well deserved.
This year’s interleague has once again been success, thank you to Paul Mann (Under 12’s) and Warwick Baum (Under 14’s) for your dedication and passion to this concept. In particular to Warwick and his team for winning the Under 14 grand final. Thank you to Marcelle Anderson and Annie Morrow for all the photographs taken, not only during the carnival but throughout the whole season.
I would like to thank all the clubs involved in our league this year, the effort that you put into your players is much appreciated. I would like to congratulate Leongatha in winning the Under 10 & 14 grand finals and Trafalgar for winning the Under 12 final, to all the other clubs who made the finals well done on getting there and making this such an exciting final series. Congratulations also to all the boys who won league medals, runners up and goal kicking awards in season 2012.
In finishing I would like to thank our major sponsor Energy Australia for your continuing support for junior sport in this area, we hope it continues for many years to come.
It is of great regret that I will have to stand down as President due to other commitments in season 2013; I have enjoyed my time on the Executive over the last 2 years and I wish the league the very best moving forward to season 2013.
Election of Office Bearer’s for 2013 President – Darren Anderson (Yallourn North) Vice President – Karen Baum (Hill End & Grove Rovers) Treasurer – Leah Maslen (Moe Lions) Secretary – Charles Weir (Newborough) Ordinary Executive Members – Craig Skinner (Newborough), VACANT,
Natalie Lambos has done a wonderful job as Treasurer for the past 3 years and is now understandably stepping down from this important role. It is now time for a Representative from a Club that has not been part of the League Executive in recent years, to find a new Treasurer for 2013. Newborough are not included in this request as they have filled this role for the past 7 years (4 years Lis Keilty and 3 years Natalie Lambos). A Nomination Form will be attached to the Email containing these minutes. Please take this matter seriously, otherwise, YOUR Junior Football League may also be looking for a new Secretary as well.

All Clubs must submit new player registration forms (VCFL Clearance/Registration) annually. Each form is to show date of birth of the player and a parent/guardian, and Club Secretary must endorse this form. The member Club Secretary is responsible for checking the validity of each form. All forms must be in the hands of the League Secretary two weeks before the first home and away game of the year.

2. Clearance
2.1 VCFL Clearance Process
Any player wishing to be cleared from his registered club must do so by using the VCFL Clearance/Registration form with his registered Club Secretary’s signature. This clearance form must be forwarded to the League Secretary as per Clause 1.1 & 1.2. Note – Clearances close on the last day of June of each season.
3. Competition
3.1 Objective – ‘Participation’
All clubs must endeavour to field teams in all competition grades. Clubs are required to obtain approval prior to the season commencing if they are unable to field players for all scheduled age levels. All teams can be supplemented by opposing teams on the day they oppose each other; provided the players are of eligible age and both clubs agree to the arrangement. The over-riding objective should be to provide as many players as possible, with the opportunity to participate on game day.
3.1.1 CLUB-TO-CLUB PLAYER ‘DAY PERMIT’ Rule 3.1.1 is designed so that clubs who have Players Rostered off from normal Club games (due to having too many Players) are permitted to loan players to a club that regularly struggles to field a full side. The club having the excess Players may supply up to a maximum of 5 players to the club requesting loan players. The club requesting the loan players must at all times give their own registered players, preference to be on the ground unless injury or fatigue requires them to voluntarily come to the interchange bench.
Players from the club having excess Players cannot individually initiate an opportunity to play under rule 3.1.1. All players seeking to play under rule 3.1.1 must have prior approval from their home club and then from the club they intend to play for. The steps to be complied with to legitimately play under rule 3.1.1 are as follows: a) In any one season, a player is restricted to playing three Club-to-Club Player ‘Day Permits’ b) A Player playing on a Club-to-Club Player ‘Day Permit’ must be clearly notated on the team sheet of club he/she is representing on the day. The team sheet should clearly show the players name, registered club and quote-ruling No. 3.1.1. c) A player playing on a Club-to-Club Player ‘Day Permit’ is eligible for CGJFL Fairest & Best votes and Goal Kicking Award statistics. d) A player playing on a Club-to-Club Player ‘Day Permit’ can be reported & suspended. e) A player playing on a Club-to-Club Player ‘Day Permit’ becomes the responsibility of the club he/she is playing for and any misbehaviour or reference is reflected in the game, tribunal reports etc of the club the player represents on the day. f) A player seeking Club-to-Club Player ‘Day Permit’ must not be registered as a Special Circumstance Player. g) A maximum of five players will be granted a Club-to-Club Player ‘Day Permit’ to any one club on any given match. Players permitted to play on a Club-to-Club Player Day Permit shall not replace available registered players of the club requesting players. They must only replace another Club-to-Club Day Permit player unless injury or fatigue results in a registered player voluntarily coming to the interchange bench.
Central Gippsland Junior Football League Inc. A.B.N. 25 109 771 580 32 P.O. Box 20 Newborough Vic 3825 Proudly Supported by Energy Australia
h) A Player permitted to play on a Club-to-Club Day Permit shall play only in one (1) game of football per round in his/her own age group within the CGJFL. (eg; a player who has agreed to play for Club “A” whose game is on the Saturday cannot also play for his/her registered club “B” if they are playing on Sunday. i) A club giving permission for a player to play on a day permit may withdraw permission after giving the league secretary & the club official requiring the player day permit ample notice (one full day) to seek alternative fill-in players. j) The Club requesting Permit Players from another Club must complete a Type 1 Match Day Player Transfer in the system to enable the Players names to be on the relevant Teamsheets.
3.2 In the Under 10,12 & 14 Competition there is no limit to the number of interchange players.
3.3 The Executive Committee shall prepare a draw for the forthcoming season prior to the season commencing and give the members clubs adequate opportunity to comment on the draw. However, the Executive Committee reserves the right to decide the format of the final draw for the season. The Executive Committee also reserves the right to vary the draw part way through the season if they deem it necessary.
3.4 League home and away games and finals shall commence at a time designated by the Executive Committee.
3.5 Non-appearance of a team of at least 14 players 15 minutes after the designated starting time shall constitute a forfeit.
3.6 Each quarter shall be of ten minutes for Under 10 and twelve minutes for Under 12 and fifteen minutes for Under 14. Quarters may be shortened if agreed to by both coaches. Breaks between quarters to be three minutes at quarter and three-quarter time and five minutes at half time. Timekeepers are to signal a minute warning prior to resumption of the quarter.
3.7 Players may be interchanged at anytime during the game provided players exit and enter via the interchange lines. Players changed outside the interchange lines cannot return to the field of play unless serious injury necessitates a stretcher and therefore departure from the ground at the nearest point (Refer Section 4 Part 7 of the VCFL Handbook).

3.8 Forfeit of Games
The spirit of all CGJFL teams should be to provide a game of football to available and willing players on the fixture date and time of the game. Where one team has less players than the opposition, in the spirit of the league, the coaches should make every effort to organise a game whereby both teams have an equal number of players participating (refer finals ruling re Equal Player numbers in finals). Under such circumstances, the league should experience very few forfeits. Where a game is played, albeit that one team lends players to the opposition to allow the game to proceed, the match result, best players, goal-kickers and credit to players for a game of football will all be officially recognised in the League results.
In short, where both coaches agree to proceed with a fixture game it shall be recognised as an official game.
Under these arrangements, a forfeit should only occur where one team does not arrive at the designated venue at the designated time for the fixture game or where one coach indicates that he is unwilling to proceed with the game due to lack of players.
3.9 Game Abandoned as opposed to a forfeit.
Any team that decides to cease participation in a game prior to the designated conclusion of the game (as determined by the official time-keepers for the game) will be judged as having 'abandoned' the game. If a game is abandoned in the first half of the game, the result will be a forfeit in favour of the team who were still willing to participate and the game statistics shall not be recognised. Where the game is abandoned after half time, the team who were still willing to participate, will be awarded the game and the match votes, goal-kickers and credit of a game shall be awarded as per normal. Officials of the club who abandon a game can expect to be the subject of an official investigation as to why the game was abandoned and may be required to meet the Leagues costs for conducting a formal investigation.
3.10 VCFL Heat/Cold Policy
Heat – When temperatures exceed 34 degrees there is an extreme risk of heat related injury to children and adolescents. Matches and training sessions scheduled at times when the above conditions prevail should be postponed until a more suitable time or cancelled.
Cold – No determined temperature guide for cold conditions, due to variance of wind chill. Coaches and officials must be alert to the onset of signs of hypothermia.

3.11 Mercy Rule
The Mercy Rule was introduced in 2008 and was designed with a view to stopping teams from thrashing opponents by large amounts. Totally one sided games do not provide any benefits to the Players on the team, the Coaches or the Parents. A key concern is for Players who may drop out of football through lack of interest and sides who may have their ability to remain in the CGJFL compromised.
If a one-sided game is anticipated or quickly develops the two coaches should consider options that will limit the imbalance and make a more productive contest for all.
Remember that if your team is winning by a large margin the chances are that many of your children, particularly in defence will not be actively involved in the game. Your ability as a coach is not defined by the winning margin against a struggling side.
Options
One sided contest anticipated or develops
• Utilise the team line up to give less proficient players in dominant sides the opportunity as an on ball or forward line player. Players benefit from the chance to experience new roles and expand on their talent base.
• If you have excess numbers utilise the bench to interchange dominant players. It will benefit your team when input is shared across the playing group.
• If the above two options have not stemmed a one sided contest coaches should be utilising the option of swapping dominant players from winning sides with the opposition. This will create a more even contest, challenge both sides in a positive manner and provide social skills amongst children who normally view each other as the opposition. It will be incumbent on coaches to promote and teach their players the benefits behind this option.
One sided contest - Opposition short on numbers • Encourage your more proficient players to fill in for them. This will create an opportunity for the development of experience and talent throughout your own team.
• Encourage any players filling in for the opposition to do their best otherwise that side may refuse the offer and request playing the match at the reduced number of players leading to more time on the bench for your own players.
• It is advisable for the better players to spend several quarters with the opposition. General · The game will not stop in any manner, all goal kickers will be recorded no matter what team they are on, league and club votes will be given no matter what team the player is on, the umpire or the timekeeper do not have anything to do with this rule.

3.12 Area Agreements
Each season Area Agreements exist between the CGJFL, the Mid Gippsland Football League and the Gippsland Football League. These agreements exist to allow Under 14 Players from the CGFL to play at Under 16 level in either the MGFL or the GFL. Prior to an Under 14 Player being permitted to play at Under 16 Level a FORM ‘A’ must be completed and signed by the Player, the Players Parent or Guardian and the CGJFL Club Secretary. There is no limit to the number of Games that a Player may play at Under 16 Level during the season. However, Clubs should be mindful that the intention of the rule is for Under 14 Players to fill in for Under 16 sides which are short of numbers.
3.13 Equipment
Helmets – The wearing of helmets is ‘compulsory’ for all Under 10 Players in the CGJFL.
Boots – Screw in studs ARE permitted to be worn by Players. However, as it is rare that an Umpire checks players boots, all Coaches are reminded to be aware of what their Players are wearing and are therefore responsible for the checking of any ‘unsafe’ footwear.
Long Pants - The wearing of long pants (‘skins’) under shorts is NOT permitted unless Special permission is obtained by the League Executive. Excludes ‘short’ skins.
Gloves – ARE permitted to be worn by junior registered players in competition matches as per Section 15 of VCFL Rules and Regulations.
