6. REFEREE ON CALL
A Referee on Call is the Tournament Referee or other
Referee nominated under Regulation
4(a) who is asked to act before an event has occurred.
Subject as follows, his powers and duties are identical to those of a Referee
in Charge while he is so acting. He remains in charge until he quits
the court in the belief that his duties have been discharged.
(a) He must first inform himself of the state of
the game so far as it relates to the matter on which he has been called.
If the players disagree, he must settle the dispute as a Referee on Appeal.
(b) If he is called to adjudicate a wiring lift,
he must confirm that the claimant has not yet started his turn and that
the adversary is responsible for the position of the relevant ball.
(c) Either player may appeal to the Tournament
Referee under Regulation
4(a).
