MARKERS - for every singles game played a marker is needed to effectively be the eyes and ears at "the head". Training will be available and ideally all those playing singles should know the role so they know what to expect of the marker and what they can ask. Ideally spouses/partners should not mark for their spouse/partner - just so that fair play is seen to be done!
