5.      Selections

5.1.                 The Association supports an open and fair process for the selection. Selection will be based on clear criteria that are communicated with all players prior to representative’s season commencing.

5.2.                 The aim of selections is to select the best possible representatives for each particular competition. Our selection allows the athletes fair and full opportunity to display their worthiness for selection and then also ultimately gives them the best possible opportunity to fulfil the aims of the organisation at the competition. Selection is a difficult process, with many contributing factors, interests and emotions involved. If the selection process is clearly and widely understood, seen to be fair,

5.3.                 Members who believe that they have been unjustly delt may appeal their concerns with the National Sports Tribunal (https://www.nationalsportstribunal.gov.au/)

5.4.                 Obligations of the Association

5.4.1.           The association has obligations to ensure that the selections are made with natural justice procedures,

5.4.1.1.     The opportunity to be heard — in selection terms, this translates into the opportunity for an athlete to meet published selection criteria. This means criteria must be made available to athletes in enough time for them to meet all criteria. This requirement may also impose an obligation on sports to ensure selection criteria are capable of being met by all appropriate athletes and are not unreasonable.

5.4.1.2.     No bias — selectors must bring no bias to the selection decision. This includes actual or perceived bias.

5.4.1.3.     Decisions should be made taking account of relevant considerations and ignoring irrelevant ones.

5.4.1.4.     Decisions must not be unreasonable — Any selection decision that is so unreasonable that no reasonable person could have exercised their power to decide in that way should, and will, be open to successful appeal. For example, the use of selectors’ discretion to select an athlete with obviously no chance of success at the relevant event, ahead of another athlete who has a good chance of such success, where the stated selection philosophy is solely to win medals at the event, is likely to be seen as an unreasonable exercise of that discretion.

5.4.1.5.     Decisions must not be made under direction — Where a selection decision involves the exercise of discretion, selectors must not act under the direction or influence of any other person.

5.4.1.6.     Decisions must be made under proper authority — Selection decisions must be made in accordance with the published selection policy.

5.4.1.7.     Decisions must be made in good faith — Good faith embodies the concept of selectors acting with honesty, good intentions and a conviction as to the correctness of the decisions they make.

5.5.                 Appointment of Selectors

5.5.1.           The most critical people in the selection process (besides the athletes) are the selectors. They are the people that must properly follow and/or implement the selection policy and selection criteria. They must also bring special skills to bear in any exercise of discretion in order to select the best team possible in accordance with the selection philosophy.

5.5.2.           The pathway coordinators will appoint selectors by invitation only. The following qualities should be sought in voting selectors:

 

5.5.3.           Knowledge — of the athletes applying for selection and of the demands and high performance characteristics of the sport.

5.5.4.           Respect for the policy — a selector should demonstrate respect for the selection philosophy and the policy put in place to achieve its goals in the performance of their responsibilities.

5.5.5.           Fairness — a selector should ensure that each athlete applying for selection is considered appropriately. They should act without bias and in a way that does not give rise to a perception of bias. They should be proactive and thorough in disclosing any interests that could conflict, or appear to conflict, with the selection decision. A selector should not accept gifts of any kind where this could be reasonably perceived to compromise their impartiality.

5.5.6.           Independence — a selector should perform their selection responsibilities independently and free from influence external to the selection process.


 

5.5.7.           Respect for persons — a selector should be patient, dignified and courteous to other panel members, athletes, coaches, officials and others with whom they deal. Selectors should endeavour to understand and be sensitive to the needs of individual athletes being considered for selection.

5.5.8.           Diligence and efficiency — a selector should be diligent in undertaking their selection responsibilities, and take reasonable steps to maintain and enhance their knowledge, skills and personal qualities necessary to the selection process.

5.5.9.           Integrity — selectors should act honestly and truthfully in the performance of their selection responsibilities. They should not use their position as selectors to improperly obtain, or seek to obtain, benefits, preferential treatment or advantage for themselves or anyone else. They should behave at all times in a way that maintains the integrity and good reputation of the selection panel.

5.5.10.       Accountability and transparency — selectors are accountable for decisions and actions taken and, notwithstanding any confidentiality obligations, should be as open as possible about their decisions and actions taken in the performance of their selection responsibilities.

5.6.                 Announcement of selected members,

5.6.1.           The association via the pathway coordinators will announce selected members for positions by the following key milestones;

5.6.2.           Shortlisting of members (Player positions only) – Players maybe shortlisted which will be announced via the association’s communications platform.

5.6.3.           Advising Members of Offer of selection – Members selected for a position will be provided a formal offer to take up their selected position, Members may choose to not accept their offer.

5.6.4.           Formal Announcement of Selection – Once all offers have been accepted a formal announcement via the association’s communications platform.

 

5.6.5.           Handling Enquiries – the association will handle all enquires regarding selected members and their roles within the association.


 

5.7.                 Selection Criteria
