Meetings are held once a month at Cambs FA HQ at Histon FC, normally on Monday evenings. DATE OF NEXT A. G. M. TBA June 2016 at 8 p.m. at Cambridgeshire FA, Bridge Road, Impington, Cambridge, CB24 9PH ** Non attendance at the meeting will incur a £30 fine ** A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE LEAGUE IN OUR 50th SEASON 3 It hardly seems credible that Sunday football was not allowed until 1965. What, one wonders, would the 2,000+ players we alone have, be doing on Sunday mornings. As soon as the Football Association relented in its opposition to Sunday football in 1965, an intrepid band of pioneers got together to form the Cambridge & District Sunday Football League. Despite implacable opposition from many at County level, the Inaugural Annual General Meeting was held and Freddie Barrett became the first President, Don Page the Chairman ably assisted by D. Harvey as Vice Chairman and Bruce Badcock the Secretary. R. Hall was the Competitions Secretary, R. Misson the Referee's Secretary and the Treasurer was K. Harrison. The first matches took place on Sunday 18 September 1965, with three divisions of ten teams, divided into North, South and Central. Several villages with established County Saturday teams took the plunge and joined, including Burwell, Sawston, Waterbeach and Fowlmere. Many City based firms joined them, such as Cambridge Evening News, Pye Apprentices and N.C.I. unfortunately only one original Club remains, Girton Eagles. Their first match was away to St.Ives Saints. As opposed to Girton Eagles, the shortest reign appears to be Wickhambrook Greyhound who in 2009-10 failed to play even one match. First teams on the roll of honour were English Chicory (Central, they were unbeaten), Hinton Rangers (North) and Sawston (Southern). Sawston were the first to win the League Cup, after a replay, from English Chicory. The League expanded to eleven divisions, but is now running with seven, except for Senior Division, being divided into two geographically declined sections. The teams north of a line roughly drawn from Huntingdon to Haverhill making up the A section, those to the south, the B section. Many of the names defy present day comprehension. A few derivations so far traced include:Selser......Selwyn Servants. Forest Rangers, founded by workers in C.Ridgeons timber yard. Newmarket Valley and Freshfield Spartans took their names from the housing estates bordering their pitch. Italcamb with players named Giuseppe, Salvatore etc explained itself. Coleridge Argyle played on Coleridge and 'trained' at the Duke of Argyle. Alcia Athletic, legend has it, came from the words on a betting slip on the table when Newmarket C.R.S. were looking for a new name. Port 84, started in Littleport in 1984, are easier to comprehend, adding LTFC to recognise their connection with Littleport Town FC. Their successors were LTFC 1906 to commemorate the Centenary of Littleport Town FC. Ely Park Rangers 3G is the club’s way of signifying the original club founders, the 3G being 3 rd generation. S&S Strikers is Shelford & Stapleford reverting to an original title after their sponsorship from NST ceased. More recently, Ship Soham became Triple S, i.e. Soham Sunday Side. Jolly Boys were inspired by Del boy’s day trip in TV’s Christmas “Only Fools and Horses” in 1988, the ‘Jolly Boys’ outing. If you were on a booze cruise in France, wanted a Club name, saw a beer label “Sterling” that was F.C.Sterling. Many keep alive the names of local hostelries, some now closed. Following the lead of the professional game, sponsors were sought and Frank Holland Motor Group kicked off by sponsoring the Senior Division for many years. On the takeover of that company, Travel Solutions stepped in for three seasons and sponsor, Barry Hall,Halls of Cambridge, took up the flag in 1998-99. VB Trophies took on the League sponsorship in season 2008-09, changing their trading name to trophyUK.net this season. The Cups attracted sponsors, varying over the years, but our longest standing Cup sponsor was Trevor Peer, previously as Porter Dawson and then Mortgage Quest, sponsoring the League Cup. This sponsorship then passed to The Cambridge Motel then VB Trophies of Royston then to The Banyers of Royston Hotel. The sponsorship was taken by Whitelamp, a website development company in 2009. Roger Witt started the sponsorship of the Junior Cup whilst at the Globe, followed briefly by Hockeys Homes and then 1993-1999, De Niro’s Night Club in Newmarket. Next were V.B. Trophies of Royston, then M & E Freeman and now we have Royston Scaffolding & Roofing. Enertech started the Lower Junior Cup sponsorship and were replaced after two seasons in 1992, by V.B.Trophies of Royston. In 2000 this was taken up by Origin 8, the printers from Shepreth who had sponsored the Final programmes for some time. From 2003 to 2008 the sponsors were Shelford Energy and the mantle was then taken up by our founder Chairman, Don Page. Without the funds supplied by these sponsors, the cost to the clubs and therefore the players would be considerably greater, so we earnestly hope that all connected with the League will give first consideration to supporting our sponsors when requiring these services. 4 On the admin side, there have been great strides in running the League in an ever more professional manner. Many innovative ideas of this League have found their way into the handbooks of County FA’s. Computerisation and now the Internet have increased the flow of information from the League to its clubs and players. While “Reg Gadsby did it with pen and paper” had its moments, the time applied to the League’s affairs by many officers would be immeasurably greater, but for modern technology. Tracking down miscreants is but one subject made infinitely easier and it enables cross references with County FA’s. There is even a private website to operate the charges and fines imposed on Clubs. A News Line was started, not to make money, but to enable any player to find the results of Sunday matches by 7 pm on the same day. The steam telephone was then superceded by the Internet. Mike Taylor, then secretary of Wicken Maids Head, designed a website and got it up and running. This for the first time introduced us to the benefits of modern communications and eventually led to the adoption of www.football.mitoo.co.uk as our web administration and communications tool. A weekly email newsletter has been sent out since October 2003 and now we have enabled the submission of result cards on line As with all Leagues these days, the single most influential aspect of the sport is the shortage of referees. Unless more players elect to give something back to their chosen sport and take on the 'black shirt' when retiring from the actual game, it is hard to see where these very necessary officials are to come from. Sunday shopping and the general change of all aspects of Sunday life are also affecting the capacity of Clubs to attract players. Perhaps it is too much to hope that there will always be a hardcore of young (and not so young) footballers who can withstand a Saturday evening out with perhaps a few beers, and then a good run out on Sunday to clear the head before a return to the pub. Even some purer athletes may persuade the missus that there are another 6 days in the week to go shopping! The League was pleased that in 2007 Don Page, our founder Chairman was elected President of Cambridgeshire County Football Association. In 2004 Dennis Toombs received an award for 50 years service to Football at the Cambs County FA AGM and was further recognised by the Football Association, followed in a similar manner by Mick Collis at the Cambs FA 2005 AGM. President Richard Challis, Chairman Ian Read, former Treasurer Barry Stepney and Bob Foster have all received awards for over 20 years of service to the League. Tony Pringle, former Competitions/Registrations Secretary got his 20 year award in 2011. A pilot project was initiated whereby Cambs FA took on the appointment of referees, a very successful venture, which saw a greater coverage of our games. We also took part as one of only two Sunday Leagues nationwide in a pilot scheme in 2010 for match day suspensions, which was successful and led to a nationwide extension of the scheme in 2011-12. This coming season 2013 -14 Clubs voted in favour of repeat substitutions. The League now in its 50th year sadley lost two members of the Committee in the past year. Barry Wright General Secretary last October and more recently Dennis Toombs. Both of who will br greatly missed. F.A.NATIONAL SUNDAY CUP COMPETITION Clubs wishing to enter the F.A. Sunday Cup should write for entry forms to the Football Association, 25 Soho Square, London W1D 4FA. Clubs will be sent an entry form, rule book and guidance notes for the competition. Those Clubs competing in the Cup in the current season will be automatically sent forms by the F.A. Interested Clubs requiring further information should contact the Football Association NOTES FOR CLUB SECRETARIES The Secretary of the HOME club must confirm with their opponents each fixture before Wednesday of the week of the match and notify them of their team colours, exact location of the ground and the kick-off time. In the event of a midweek match, your opponents should be notified five days before the match. If no referee is appointed, you should try to arrange for a referee yourself. 5 See that a linesman is provided for all matches and equipped with a flag; see that the match ball is correctly inflated and that there are reserve balls close at hand. You need a written list of your substitutes for the referee. Make a point of offering to pay the referee before the match. In the event of the appointed referee failing to arrive, contact the Referee's Secretary as soon as possible. Be sure that all your players are duly qualified in accordance with the Rules; ensure that they have not previously signed for another Club in the Sunday League. Your result card must be completed, with all cautions and sending offs, goal scorers, subs used, club lineman. Ensure that the correct result is phoned in by 2 pm on Sunday. Details of any players signed on the day of a match should be emailed to the Registrations Secretary that day and then your team sheet should be submitted on line on mitoo by Wednesday evening. Bring to the attention of your Committee any conduct on the part of a member of your Club, including comments on internet websites, that is likely to bring the game into disrepute. If persisted in, a Club ought not to allow such an offender to continue to belong to it, for not only may such conduct bring punishment to the person, but it gives the Club a bad name and may lead to more serious trouble. Make a point of not allowing your players to use bad language, nor to address observations to the referee, both on and off the field of play. They should remember that the referee's decision is final and any argument is useless. If you find spectators at your ground beginning to annoy the referee, remember you are responsible for his protection both during and after the match. Reply to all communications on the day received, it only has to be done once. Notify any change of Club details to the League General Secretary at once. If you receive an email requesting a read receipt, then such a reply is expected promptly Your attention is drawn especially to the latter half of Rule 5 I, Page 13 regarding the payment of fines. Again it only has to be done once and there are penalties for late payment, including in worst cases, suspension. All cheques are to be payable to The Cambridge & District Sunday Football League and are to be posted to the Treasurer Results of ALL matches, including County Cup competitions, must be telephoned by the HOME team to 01353 664 407 or text 07984 500 535 before 2 p.m. each Sunday, or a fine of £20 will be imposed. If the home team is not a member of this League, then our team must make the phone call to the League. There is a Golden Boot Trophy for the League's leading scorer, but only goals scored in this League's games count (NOT County Cup games). The League administration will identify the highest score; there is no need to submit claims. There is also the Mike Goldthorp Memorial Trophy for best overall goal keeping performance of the season. The Jack Edwards Memorial Trophy, sponsored by GJK Accountancy is an award to the team receiving the best marks for sportsmanship from their opponents. To ensure that a degree of uniformity is achieved in the marking of referees sent in to the League, a 1-100 scale of marks shall operate. The Football Association's Referees' Committee's "Guidance for marking referees" table is given below to help Club Secretaries to arrive at a fair assessment. 6 GUIDANCE FOR MARKING REFEREES Must be based on OVERALL performance and be fair and not based on previous games 91-100 The referee was extremely accurate in decision making and very successfully controlled the game using management and communication skills to create an environment of fair play, adding real value to the game. 81-90 The referee was very accurate in decision making and successfully controlled the game using management and communication skills to create an environment of fair play. 71-80 The referee was accurate in decision making and controlled the game well, communicating with the players, making a positive contribution towards fair play. 61-70 The referee was reasonably accurate in decision making and controlled the game quite well and communicated with the players, establishing a reasonable contribution towards fair play. 51-60 The referee had some shortcomings in the level of accuracy of decision making and control, with only limited success in communicating with players, resulting in variable fair play 50 and less The referee had significant shortcomings in the level of accuracy of decision making and control, with poor communications with players which resulted in low levels of fair play. A mark of 71-80 is the standard level expected.. Even where a referee scores less than 60 there will have been some positive aspects which should be given credit. Comments should assist the referee to improve his performance. Further comprehensive guidance notes will be in your County FA handbook It is not acceptable to mark the referee down simply because he booked one of your players, or to adopt a 60 if we lose, 80 if we win attitude. Football is the hobby of the referee as much as it is for your players, and he is entitled to enjoy his sport and be recognized sensibly for his efforts on your behalf Consider all the above points, mark your result card accordingly out of one hundred. If 60 or less is marked on the card, a fuller statement of explanation must be sent to the League’s Referees’ Secretary and a copy to your County FA Referee's Secretary. Failure to do so may result in a fine. Comments on websites County Football Associations will fine your Club if a member of your Club is found to have submitted comments in match reports or on forms on any websites that in their opinion brings the game into disrepute. Your only defence is that you have taken steps to ensure all your members, players and spectators are aware of their responsibility in these matters and that otherwise the matter is beyond your control. Whilst criticism of match officials and others is not per se prohibited, you must be sure your members are aware of the need to be moderate in their language at all times, and to be careful of antagonizing match officials and County FA’s by untoward criticisms. The League has no control over any website with the facility to enter any comments, we have not activated the match report facility on mitoo for this reason 7 ROYSTON SCAFFOLDING AND ROOFING SPECIALISTS 47 Newmarket Road, Royston.

Furthermore, under the Respect programme, there is an individual and collective responsibility for all parties to create a fair, safe and enjoyable environment for participants in the game. Cambridgeshire FA is proud to say that all its affiliated leagues are fully committed to Respect and each league has a Respect League Co-ordinator on its management committee. Cambridgeshire FA will always look into reports of poor standards of behaviour in football. In order that facts may be established, it is important that all complaints are put in writing, signed by the complainant and their club officials where appropriate, and corroborated when required. On receipt of a complaint, the county disciplinary department will consider the seriousness of the case and refer for action as follows: (i) If further information is required, then this may be requested by telephone, or in writing or occasionally by convening a board of enquiry. (ii) If there is evidence of misconduct under Rule E of the FA Conduct Regulations, then the disciplinary department will issue a charge via the club secretary. They will invite the person(s) concerned to submit a plea and explanation to a disciplinary commission either in writing or by personal appearance at a hearing. In the event of a commission finding a misconduct charge proved, individuals and/or clubs can face substantial fines and suspensions. This process is rigorous, though, and evidence and procedures need to stand up to scrutiny because guilty parties have the right of appeal to The FA against decisions of the county FA which they consider to be unfair. The standard of proof required for a decision is on the balance of probabilities. (iii) If the evidence indicates poor practice, but not misconduct, then the matter will be referred to the Respect League Co-ordinator to contact the offending party’s club, usually via the club secretary. The co-ordinator has a number of actions available, including: (a) request that club members are formally reminded of the Respect Codes of Conduct; (b) request that the club committee issues a stronger warning to its member(s) through its own disciplinary procedures; (c) call club members (eg. Chairman, Manager) in to meet with League and/or County FA officials for explanation and action planning; (d) require club member(s) to attend a suitable FA course, eg. Safeguarding Children or Welfare Workshop, or an Online Courses such as Equality & Diversity, or the new Respect Workshop; (e) referral to the County FA Charter Standard Committee for a status review; (f) a League official or a County FA official to attend future match(es) of the club concerned to monitor behaviour. It is worth remembering, however, that there are always (at least) two sides to every story and opinions of incidents may vary wildly between factions with vested interests in the outcome of matches. This is why we will always seek the opinion of the referee or any other independent, impartial witnesses, where possible, and give substantial weight to their evidence. 39 Remember also that Rules and Regulations are there, not to catch out the unwary, but for everybody’s protection against unfair things happening to them. Everyone is entitled to fairness, safety and enjoyment in football.

The problem again was clubs withdrawing after the season had started. Lack of commitment from players is the reason given by hard pressed club officers. Many register so they can be available if needed, only to go missing when they are needed. So many other attractions on a modern Sunday does not help, not least the surfeit of Premiership games to watch live or “on the box”. Lack of pitches does not help, there seems to be an increase in withdrawal of pitches from adult male Sunday football. It would help considerably if some of the players who feel they no longer want regular Sunday football would consider taking up the whistle and gives us a few days a season at least. Referees who have actually played the game appear to get more respect from the players and who knows, start early enough and a Sunday player may find himself officiating at levels of football he could only have dreamt about as a player. It does take a bit more effort these days such as a CRB check, Safeguarding Children training, all in order to raise safety levels for participants in the game. The initial course fee is £40 but most of that is refunded by the County FA once a set number of games have been officiated in, and this League is seeking ways to further encourage would be referees. We will considering refunding the rest of the initial outlay if the required number of games are actually in our League. We are concerned about abuse towards referees both on and off the pitch and where we have incidents reported to us and can it be proven, we will strive to bring the culprits to task, albeit the first recourse is via the relevant County Football Association who have far greater powers than us. Remember, you may have felt aggrieved in playing the game when a referee’s decision went against you, but you will also remember that matches without an official referee were far worse. Unless more folk are prepared to give something back to the game, we will all be heading towards a worsening situation regarding availability of trained referees.
