Code of Conduct
Remember that children participate in sport for their enjoyment, as well as yours.
PLEASE NOTE:
Any breach of the above regulations by parents/guardians, players or officials of the Club, will be dealt with by the Club Committee and any penalty imposed will be final.
Code of Conduct
- Act in the best interests of the Club
- Play by the rules
- Be a good sport. Applaud all good plays whether they are made by your team or the opposition.
- Never argue with an official. If you disagree, have your captain approach the official during a break or after the competition.
- Control your temper. Verbal abuse of officials and sledging other players, deliberately distracting or provoking an opponent are not acceptable or permitted behaviours.
- Work equally hard for yourself and/or your team. Your team’s performance will benefit and so will you.
- Treat all participants as you would like to be treated, do not bully or take unfair advantage of another competitor.
- Co-operate with your coach, team-mates and opponents. Without them there would be no competition.
- Participate for your own enjoyment and benefit, not just to please parents and coaches.
- Respect the rights, dignity and worth of all participants regardless of their gender, ability, cultural background or religion.
