Constitution

Plaster Cast and Protective Guard Rules

Applies to all CRJFA matches, training sessions, and sanctioned activities.

Safety First – Why This Rule Exists

Under the Laws of the Game (Law 4 – Players’ Equipment), players must not wear anything dangerous to themselves or others. Plaster casts and rigid supports pose a significant risk because they are hard, inflexible, and can cause injury on contact.

CRJFA follows the safety standards of Football Australia and Football Tasmania.
