Code of Conduct for Players and Parents:
PLAYERS’ CODE OF BEHAVIOUR
• Play for fun and enjoyment of Netball.
• Treat all players as you would like to be treated.
• Do not bully or take unfair advantage of another player.
• Control your temper. Verbal abuse or deliberate contact and abusive behavior is unacceptable.
• Play according to the rules of Netball and the principles of fair play.
• Play equally hard for yourself and your team. Your team's performance will benefit and so will you.
• Be a good sport, cheer all good play from your team and the opposition.
• Appreciate and co-operate with your coach, teammates and officials; there would be no game without them.
• Take responsibility for your performance on and off the court.
• Bring a positive sporting attitude to each practice and game.
PARENTS’ CODE OF BEHAVIOUR
• If children are interested, encourage and support them to play.
• If you disagree with an official, raise the issue via appropriate channels rather than question the official's judgment and honesty in public.
• Recognise and value the importance of coaches and other volunteers, who give their time and resources to provide Netball; they deserve support.
• Teach children that effort is as important as victory, so that the result of each game is accepted without undue disappointment.
• Encourage children to play to the rules and respect umpires' decisions.
• Support the removal of verbal and physical abuse from the game.
• Lead by example.
• Children learn by taking risks and making mistakes; encourage and support this.
• Applaud good play by players on both teams.
• Avoid forcing children to play if reluctant.
