Fair Play Code of Conduct

Coaches, Parents, and Players

 

  Fair Play Code of Conduct for Coaches 

All items are reprinted from the CHA Coach Level and Hockey Trainers Safety Program manuals

 

  • I will be reasonable when scheduling games and practices, remembering that players have other interests and obligations. 

  • I will teach my players to play fairly and to respect the rules, officials and opponents. 

  • I will ensure that all players get equal instruction, support, and playing time. 

  • I will not ridicule or yell at my players for making mistakes or for performing poorly.  I will remember that players play to have fun and must be encouraged to have confidence in themselves. 

  • I will make sure that equipment and facilities are safe and match the players' ages and abilities. 

  • I will remember that participants need a coach they can respect.  I will be generous with praise and set a good example. 

  • I will obtain proper training and continue to upgrade my coaching skills. 

  • I will work in Cupertino with officials for the benefit of the game. 

  • I will pay all fees on a timely basis and forfeit any money held by the hockey committee if I fail to do so.

   Fair Play Code of Conduct For Parents

  • I will make scheduled team payments on or before the due dates.

  • I will volunteer for one or more of the team positions and do my best to fulfill my obligations.  I will also volunteer for the mandatory canteen duty and in failing to do so I will be subject to forfeit my $40.00 refundable fee and in failing to pay the penalty the fees will be added to my registration for the following year.

  • I will attend parents meetings.

  • I will take my son/daughter to practice and games on time and respect team policy. No one likes to be the last one in the dressing room and rushed to get dressed.

  • I will communicate concerns about coaching matters with the parent representative.

  • For atoms and older teams (females), only moms in dressing room unless players are fully dressed.  If dad needs to tie skates, find a suitable location outside the dressing room.

  • If I fail to attend practice(s) my child is subject to limited ice time during a game on the discretion of the coach

The following items are reprinted from the CHA Coach Level and Hockey Trainers Safety Program manuals.

  • I will remember that my son/daughter plays hockey for her enjoyment, not for mine. 

  • I will encourage my son/daughter to play by the rules and to resolve conflicts without resorting to hostility or violence. 

  • I will teach my son/daughter that doing one's best is as important as winning, so that my child will never feel defeated by the outcome of a game. 

  • I will make my son/daughter feel like a winner every time by offering praise for competing fairly and trying hard. 

  • I will never ridicule or yell at my daughter for making a mistake or losing a game. 

  • I will remember that children learn best by example. I will applaud good plays/performances by both my child's team and their opponents. 

  • I will never question the officials' judgment or honesty in public. 

  • I will support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from children's hockey games. 

  • I will respect and show appreciation for the volunteer coaches who give their time to coach hockey for my child.

Fair Play Code of Conduct For Players  

     (parents for a child of tender years)

  • I will attend all scheduled games and practices if I am healthy.  Hockey is a team sport and line drills are worthless if a member of a line is absent.

  • I will phone one of the coaches if unable to attend a game or practice.

  • I will check my equipment bag and make sure I have all my equipment and that my skates are sharp.

  • I will arrive for all games and practices on time as per team policy. This means I should be fully dressed and ready to skate at least 15 minutes before the start of a game or practice.   Each team and coach will establish their own readiness policy.

  • I will bring my own water bottle to games and practices. Sharing is not hygienic and may spread cold, flues, and other contagious viruses like mononucleosis.  I will not ask or take without asking my team mates water bottle and jeopardize their health and mine.

The following items are reprinted from the CHA Coach Level and Hockey Trainers Safety Program manuals.

 

  • I will play hockey because I want to, not just because others or coaches want me to.

  • I will play by the rules of hockey, and in the spirit of the game.

  • I will control my temper - fighting and "mouthing off" can spoil the activity for everybody.

  • I will respect my opponents.

  • I will do my best to be a true team player.

  • I will remember that winning isn't everything - that having fun, improving skills, making friends and doing my best are also important.

  • I will acknowledge all good plays/performances - those of my team and of my opponents.

  • I will remember that coaches and officials are there to help me. I will accept their decisions and show them respect.
