Complaints Process
If teams have a complaint in relation to referees, teams, competition organisers and/or the way rules are being adjudicated, these must be addressed with the Ground Officials on the night of competition. If you have concerns during a game, please approach the Ground Officials while the game is being played, it is extremely difficult to deal with concerns after the fact.
If the circumstance of the complaint requires more formal processes, the complaint must be lodged in writing using the complaint form on the ACT Oztag website.
