AFL Brisbane Juniors Ground Marshall Accreditation Test

It is compulsory to be wearing a Ground Marshall bib while performing duties.

In this scenario, it is important to address the abusive behavior of the coach. Yelling at the coach may escalate the situation and create a negative environment. Allowing the coach to continue under the excuse of being "passionate" is not acceptable as it promotes a toxic atmosphere. The best course of action is to involve the team manager to help defuse the situation. Politely asking the coach to refrain from their behavior and reminding them of their Code of Conduct can help establish boundaries and promote a respectful and fair environment for all involved.

As the Ground Marshall for the first match of the day, it is indeed part of your role to complete the JLT AFL Match Day checklist. This checklist ensures that all necessary tasks and preparations are completed before the match begins, such as checking the field conditions, setting up equipment, coordinating with officials, and ensuring the safety of players and spectators. By completing this checklist, the Ground Marshall plays a crucial role in ensuring the smooth running of the match and creating a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone involved.

In this scenario, the correct answer is to politely ask the coach to return to the box and explain that the First Aid officer will do their job and look after his son. This is the appropriate response because it is important to maintain the proper protocol and ensure that the trained professionals, such as the First Aid officer, are the ones taking care of the injured player. By asking the coach to return to the box, it helps maintain order and allows the First Aid officer to focus on providing the necessary medical attention. Additionally, if the First Aid officer requests any support, it is appropriate to provide it.

In this scenario, the correct answer is to investigate the situation, ask the spectator to pour out the alcohol, and if they refuse to comply, contact the police. This is the appropriate course of action because drinking alcohol in an unlicensed area is a violation of the law. By investigating the situation and asking the individual to dispose of the alcohol, you are giving them a chance to rectify the situation without involving law enforcement. However, if they refuse to comply, contacting the police is necessary to ensure that the appropriate legal measures are taken.

For a match to be able to commence, both a First Aid Officer and a stretcher need to be in place. This ensures that there is a trained medical professional available to provide immediate assistance in case of any injuries, and a stretcher to safely transport any injured players off the field if necessary. Without either of these, the match cannot start as it would pose a risk to the players' safety.

It is part of the role to ensure that no spectators engage with umpires at any point before, during, or after the match. This responsibility falls on the person in question, indicating that they have a duty to prevent any interaction between spectators and umpires.

If a breach of any code of conduct occurs and you believe the league needs to be notified of the matter, the appropriate form to complete and send to the league is the Ground Marshall Incident Form. This form is specifically designed for reporting incidents that require the league's attention and ensures that all the necessary information regarding the breach is documented and communicated effectively. The Ground Marshall Checklist and Notice of Report are not the appropriate forms for this purpose.

The combination of 1x Coach, 1x Assistant Coach, 1x Team Manager, 1x Runner, and interchange players is allowed to be in the coaches box at any time. This combination includes the necessary coaching staff, team management, and support personnel, as well as the players who are being substituted in and out of the game.

The correct answer is "Yes" because providing umpires with a drink at quarter and three quarter time breaks is indeed part of the role. This task ensures that the umpires stay hydrated during the game, allowing them to perform their duties effectively and maintain their concentration throughout the match.

When playing numbers are reduced due to an injury, it is important to notify both teams. This is because it affects the balance and fairness of the game. By informing both teams, they can make necessary adjustments and changes to their strategies or tactics to accommodate the reduced number of players. This ensures that both teams have equal opportunities and can play the game in a fair and competitive manner.

Engaging in passing on a message to the umpire(s) as a player is not appropriate. It can be seen as an attempt to influence the game or manipulate the decisions made by the umpire(s). The umpire(s) should be left to make their own judgments and decisions without any external interference. It is important to maintain fairness and integrity in sports, and players should respect the authority and independence of the umpire(s). Therefore, the correct answer is "No."

After a match, the umpires' room is accessible to the reported player, witnesses, and both team managers. This is because the reported player and the witnesses may be required to provide further information or statements regarding any incidents that occurred during the match. Additionally, the team managers may need to discuss any disciplinary actions or decisions with the umpires.

To effectively monitor spectators and coaches boxes for breaches of the Code of Conduct, it is necessary to perform this role from outside the fence. This allows for a better view of the entire area and ensures a more objective perspective. Being outside the fence also helps maintain a professional distance and avoids any potential conflicts or biases that may arise if monitoring is done from within the area.

The correct answer is "Only if weather conditions change". This means that you only need to complete the JLT AFL Match Day checklist for every match if the weather conditions change. This implies that if the weather remains the same throughout the day, there is no need to repeat the checklist for each match.
