INJURIES

There is an inherent risk of injury playing netball and Islington Netball does not accept any responsibility for any injuries to or death of players or spectators at the netball courts, unless Islington Netball is in breach of these Terms and Conditions or relevant Health and Safety legislation and this is the cause of the death or serious injury.

Some basic first aid supplies are available at the netball courts. Any medical assistance or advice given is provided on a voluntary basis with the assumed consent of the injured player. Any taxis or transport required for an injured player will be at the expense of that player.

There is no additional time played in the event of an injury. 

​

CODE OF CONDUCT

All players are responsible for reading and understanding the code of conduct and disciplinary process.

​

NUMBER OF PLAYERS FOR A GAME TO COUNT

A team must have a minimum of 4 of their own team players by the start of the 2nd quarter for the game to count. If they have less than 4 of their own players (i.e. they have 4 or more fill-in players), they lose 10-nil, but the forfeit fee is waived. Specific rules apply about fill-in players during semi-final and finals weeks. Captains receive details of this by email prior to these weeks.​

​

FORFEIT FEE

If a team do not field any of their players for a match, a forfeit fee of £70 will apply. This will have to be paid prior to that team's next match. Failure to pay the fees, it may result in deduction of ladder points, suspension or expulsion from the league. The forfeited match will be recorded as 20-nil to the opposition.

If the team manages to filed a team with less than 4 players of their own team, the forfeit fee will be waived and the final scores would be 10-nil.

If a team forfeits more than one occasion during the season, Islington Netball will reserve the right to allow them to participate in the following seasons.

 

REFUNDS

Unfortunately, no individual or team refunds can be given during the season or within the 7 days before it starts.
