B BADGE

  • Sound game management and implementation of procedures.-Some understanding of when measures need to be taken to keep game safe (for example, overt unsportsmanlike conduct or dangerous play).
  • Positioning and vision are not restricted to the immediate area where the ball is or the bulk of players are, to take into account what is happening behind and ahead of play. This requirement is matched by the requirement that the  candidate demonstrate basic advantage skills.
  • More consistent recognition of minor infringements and more refined understanding (footwork, played ball for example).
  • Obstruction: beginning to understand implications of rule beyond simple 0.9m defence (jump and land, standing within 0.9m and interfering with throwing/shooting action); beginning to recognise use of arms to limit movement of player without ball; obvious defending out of court.
  • Contact: beginning to go beyond obvious examples of interference to distinguishing fair contest from contact (understanding body movements, including recognising when a player or players cause an opponent to interfere).
  • Advantage: vision skills allow some recognition of context of play and some assessment of what is of advantage to the non-offending team
