Arrival of delegate(s)
36.4. The travel arrangements of the EHF delegate(s) appointed to an YAC EURO
Qualification tournament must be organised by the Host Federation in due time prior
to the beginning of the tournament in coordination with the EHF delegate(s).
The nominated EHF delegate(s) must arrive at the relevant venue on the date and time
communicated by the Host Federation.
36.5. If the delegate(s) does not arrive at the tournament venue as planned and organised,
the Host Federation must contact the EHF Office (mobile number: 0043 664 41 05 243)
and report the situation.
Refusal
36.6. If the appointed EHF delegate is unable to fulfil a nomination, he/she must inform the
EHF Office without delay by phone and subsequently in writing.
36.7. In this case, the EHF appoints a substitute delegate.
General responsibility
36.8. The EHF delegate acts on behalf of the EHF.
36.9. When on duty, the delegate must always carry a copy of the respective EHF
competitions regulations as well as the IHF Rules of the Game.
36.10. The EHF delegate verifies and ensures the orderly conduct of the tournament before,
during and after the tournament. In particular he/she supervises the conduct of the
matches and prevents any occurrences that may lead to a protest or a repetition of a
match following EHF requirements. If necessary, the EHF delegate acts as mediator.
36.11. The EHF delegate verifies and ensures the correct venue set-up by the Host Federation
before, during and after the match. In particular, he/she supervises the set-up of the
judges’ table, support table, flags and all required equipments and of the advertising in
the playing hall. Moreover the EHF delegate controls that all required measures to
maintain the security and safety of all involved persons are taken.
36.12. The EHF delegate guides and supports the referees, observes and assesses their
performance. However, a delegate is not a chief referee. Responsibility on the playing
area rests solely with the EHF referees.
36.13. Nonetheless, the EHF delegate must interrupt the match if necessary and bring errors
that may lead to a protest to the EHF referees’ attention. Errors in this context do not
mean decisions made by the referees on the basis of their observation of facts. The
delegate must not make decisions but only make recommendations.
