-
Parents'
Code of Conduct
-
Don’t force unwilling children to play sport.
-
Remember, children are involved in sport for their enjoyment, not yours.
-
Encourage your child to play by the rules.
-
Teach your child that honest effort is as important as victory and to accept the result without undue disappointment.
-
Turn defeat into victory by helping your child with skills improvement
and good sportsmanship.
-
Never
ridicule or yell at your child for making a mistake or losing.
-
Remember that children learn best by example. Applaud good play by your team and by members of the opposing
team.
-
Don’t publicly question the judgement (and never the honesty!) of
referees, umpires and coaches.
-
Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from
children’s sport.
-
Recognise the value of volunteer coaches and referees who give their
time and resources to provide recreational activities for your child.
-
Players'
Code of Conduct
-
Play for the fun of it, and not just to please your parents or coach.
-
Play by the rules.
-
Never argue with the referee.
-
Control your temper.
-
Work equally hard for yourself and your team; your team’s and your own
performance will benefit.
-
Be a good sport. Applaud
all good play, whether by your own team or by your opponents.
-
Treat all players in the manner in which you would like to be treated.
Don’t interfere with, bully or take unfair advantage of weaker players.
-
Remember that the goals of the game are to have fun, improve your skills
and feel good. Don’t show off.
-
Co-operate with coaches, team mates and opponents; without them you
don’t have a game.
-
Cherish sport for what it is – fun.
-
Remember, the way adults behave – particularly some of the stars we
see on T.V. – isn’t the way you should behave, especially not when starting
out in sport.
-
Coaches'
Code of Conduct
-
Be reasonable in your demands on the young players’ time, energy and
enthusiasm. Remember that they have
other interests.
-
Teach your players that the rules of the game are mutual agreements
which no one should evade or break.
-
In contact games, group players according to age, height, skill and
physical maturity.
-
Avoid over-playing talented players in coaching sessions.
“Average” players need and deserve equal coaching time.
-
Remember that children play for fun and enjoyment and that winning is
only part of it. Never ridicule or
yell at the children for making mistakes or losing a game.
-
Ensure that equipment and facilities are appropriate to the child’s
age and ability.
-
The scheduling and length of practice times and games should take into
consideration the child’s maturity level.
-
Develop team respect for their opponents’ ability, as well as for the
judgement of referees and opposing coaches.
-
Follow the advice of a doctor in determining when an injured player is
fit again.
-
Remember that children need a coach whom they can respect.
Be generous with your praise and set a good example.
