           Match Officials will be paid their fees before the match commences by the Home Club (or by the Club requesting the referee).

           Where a Club wishes to pay the appointed referee by bank transfer, rather than by cash on the day, that Club must make their preference known to the referee in advance, preferably as soon as they are advised of the appointment and acknowledge it to the referee. Any arrangement to pay by bank transfer must include agreement as to when the payment will be made.

           Failure to comply with this Rule will result in a fine (in accordance with the Fines Tariff). In the event that the Competition is required to pay a referee on behalf of a Club, an admin charge of £10 will be added to the required refund.

(F)      In the event of a match not being played because of circumstances over which the Clubs have no control, the Match Officials, if present, shall be entitled to the reduced fee shown above. Where a match is not played owing to one Club being in default, that Club shall be ordered to pay the Match Officials, if they attend the Ground, their full fee. If it is the Away team which is in default and they do not attend the ground, then the Home club shall pay the official(s) and apply to the league for the money to be refunded to them by the Away club. Failure to comply with the Rule will result in a fine (in accordance with the Fines Tariff).
