Coaches Code of Ethics...

As a coach, I hereby pledge to be a ''Positive Role Model'' to my players at all times by following these Code of Ethics...

I will always...

• ''Lead By Example'' in demonstrating fair play and good sportsmanship to all players.



• place the emotional and physical well-being of my players ahead of any personal desire to win.



• treat players as individuals, remembering the large range of emotional and physical development for the same age group.



• do my best to provide a safe playing environment for my players and their families.



• do my best to organize practices that are safe, fun and challenging for all my players.



• provide a sports environment for my team that is free of drugs, tobacco and alcohol and ensure that everyone will refrain from their use at all youth sporting events.



• be fully knowledgeable in the rules for all sports that I coach and will teach these rules to my players and their parents.



• use coaching techniques appropriate for each skill level and age that I teach.



• remember that I am a volunteer youth sports coach and that the game is for the children, not adults.
