Netball NSW Tribunal Chairperson and Members
Netball NSW conducts various Tribunals throughout the year. These include Hearing Tribunals, Disciplinary Tribunals and Appeals Tribunals. These Tribunals deal with a variety of issues including Member Protection complaints, on-court disciplinary matters, appeals from Affiliate and Netball NSW Tribunal decisions and appeals relating to Netball NSW managed competitions.
Netball NSW maintains a register of persons that it may call on from time to time to either chair or sit on these Tribunals but in the interests of involving a greater range of individuals, we are now calling for expressions of interest from interested persons to sit on Netball NSW Tribunals as either Chairperson or a Tribunal member.
Affiliates are requested to circulate this memorandum to interested members and a copy will be placed on the Netball NSW website. It is anticipated that education and training will be provided by Netball NSW to all Chairpersons/Tribunal members in the near future.
The following role descriptions should be considered when applying:
Chairperson
The Chairperson will:
- provide an initial assessment of progress within the Tribunal matter and read such preliminary material as necessary
- raise with any proposed member of the Tribunal any potential or possible conflict of interest
