Fair Play Codes (from Hockey Canada)
Players
|
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. |
Parents
|
I will not force my child to participate in hockey. |
|
I will remember that my child plays hockey for his or her enjoyment, not for mine. |
|
I will encourage my child to play by the rules and to resolve conflicts without resorting to hostility or violence. |
|
I will teach my child 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 child feel like a winner every time by offering praise for competing fairly and trying hard. |
|
I will never ridicule or yell at my child 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. |
Spectators
|
I will remember that participants play hockey for their enjoyment. They are not playing to entertain me. |
|
I will not have unrealistic expectations. I will remember that players are not professionals and cannot be judged by professional standards. |
|
I will respect the officials' decisions and I will encourage participants to do the same. |
|
I will never ridicule a player for making a mistake during a game. I will give positive comments that motivate and encourage continued effort. |
|
I will condemn the use of violence in any form and will express my disapproval in an appropriate manner to coaches and league officials. |
|
I will show respect for my team's opponents, because without them there would be no game. |
|
I will not use bad language, nor will I harass players, coaches, officials or other spectators. |
