From 4th September 2016, the Dorset Youth Football League will be operating the following Charge Notice and Fines procedure:-

 

1.    League and Registration Secretaries will present the offences to the next Management Committee meeting.

.

 

2.    The full Management Committee will discuss each offence then decide whether to charge the club and the level of the fine to be imposed.

 

Any action agreed by the Committee must have taken place within 28 days of the Competition being notified

 

3.    The Fines and Appeals Co-ordinator  will send out the formal Charge Notice for each offence as per Rule 5D to each club

4.    If the club responds and accepts the charge then the fine indicated in the Charge Notice will be payable as per Rule 5I.

 

5.    If the Club does not respond within the seven day period from the date of the Charge Notice they will have deemed to have accepted the charge and the fine will be payable as per Rule 5I.

 

In addition, Rule 5H will be applied as they will have failed to satisfactorily deal with correspondence from the League. They will be liable to a fine or otherwise penalised at the discretion of the Management Committee.

 

6.    If the club denies the charge and decides to appeal, Rule 15B will be applied so they will have:-

b.    send copies of all the paperwork relating to the protest or complaint to the Discipline  Committee.

c.     inform the club when the Discipline Committee will hear the case.

 

When dealing with a protest or complaint the Discipline Committee must take into account any information which, if properly used, might have avoided the protest or complaint which is in possession of the protesting or complaining club, as per Rule 15F.

 

8.    Either with or without a Personal Hearing, the Discipline Committee will review the facts relating to the Change then they will decide that

Dear Club Secretaries, managers, coaches, referees, players and parents,

FA UPDATE ON FOOTBALL FIXTURES THIS WEEKEND

Her Majesty the Queen was a long-standing Patron of The Football Association and has left a lasting and indelible legacy on our national game.

As a mark of respect, following the passing of Her Majesty the Queen, English football has united to postpone all football fixtures between 9-11 September.

The FA can confirm that all football fixtures across the Barclays Women’s Super League, Barclays Women’s Championship, the Vitality Women’s FA Cup, and the Isuzu FA Trophy, will be postponed this weekend. We can also confirm that all football fixtures across the National League System [NLS], Steps 1-6, including the Vanarama National Leagues, the Women’s Football Pyramid [WFP], Tiers 3-7, and matches across grassroots football in England will be postponed.

The Premier League and the EFL have all confirmed that their fixtures this weekend will be rescheduled for a later date.

All flags at Wembley Stadium and St. George’s Park will continue to fly at half-mast over the weekend.

Our thoughts remain with our president, HRH The Duke of Cambridge, and the whole of the Royal Family during this time.

Regards

Dave Drew

Dorset Youth Football League Chairman
