Your main job is to organise matches for your respective teams. BUCS fixture dates are predetermined and organised by the union. Referees should be arranged as soon as fixtures are announced to ensure all matches can be played without issue. Good communication with the BUCS coordinator (George Dale in activities) is vital and should be your primary contact in case of any BUCS issues. It is also your responsibility to make sure the referees get paid each time they referee.

It is also vital to arrange friendly fixtures with other local universities to get more players game time and help the 2nd teams/development squads. This requires you to liaise with the other teams in your league and organise the fixture dates throughout the year, these should fit around BUCS matches and take place during allocated pool time. Good communication between both secretaries is essential to avoid overlap and double bookings and help share the workload. It is essential to have constant awareness of the match agenda and remain organised with emails and communications with the Edge, the union and other

university secretaries. It is also useful to form a good relationship with your captain so you can help each other with decisions and share some responsibilities where necessary.
