Technical Areas

[Brian Ravenhill]

Amongst all the literature sent out from Twickenham at the start of the season I remember seeing a page of a document that described who was allowed where with regard to the technical area and within any perimeter fencing etc. I have trawled through my stuff and now cannot find it. Is there anybody out there that can point me in the right direction?

RFU Regulation 13? Eg:-

Permitted Personnel
13.7.6 No more than four water carriers per team (including medical staff and
replacement players) are permitted within the pitch side or perimeter fencing or
other barrier. Water carriers may only be permitted onto the playing area for the
purposes of taking water to the players at such times as shall be approved by
the Referee (on any other occasion players must come to the touchline to get
water).
13.7.7 Any player temporarily suspended when playing must remain in the ‘Technical
Area’ or leave the playing enclosure and be clearly and readily identifiable to
the Fourth Official. Any player temporarily suspended at Level 5 and below
should remain in the ‘Technical Area’ (if provided) or remain between the posts
in the in goal area which his team is attacking or in such other place as the
referee may agree.
