Abstract

Systems thinking, the notion that the unit of analysis should be the overall sociotechnical system, is a popular contemporary paradigm within cognitive ergonomics. Despite this, systems thinking applications have not yet emerged in the sporting context. We argue that systems thinking applications are required in sport, especially since sports systems are becoming more complex and technology dependent. Further, Officials in Sport (OiS), the controllers of the game, represent a critical but neglected research area. In this paper we explore whether the cognitive ergonomics model of Distributed Situation Awareness (DSA) can be applied to OiS systems and if DSA provides appropriate theoretical and methodological approaches to support future studies of Situation Awareness in OiS systems. The implications for future sport and OiS research applications are discussed and a research agenda designed to facilitate these applications is proposed.

Currently an AFL umpiring team consists of 10 umpires in three disciplines performing four roles – Three Field Umpires adjudicate on the majority of rule breaches, four Boundary Umpires determine when and how the ball leaves the playing field, two Goal Umpires adjudicate the type of score on scoring plays and one Field Umpire acts as an emergency umpire. In the 1970’s there were five umpires in the team – one Field, two Boundary and two Goal.
