Code of conduct for club officials and volunteers

  The essence of good ethical conduct and practice is summarised below. All volunteers must:
 
  • Consider the well-being and safety of participants before the development of performance.
 
  • Develop an appropriate working relationship with performers, based on mutual trust and respect.
 
  • Make sure all activities are appropriate to the age, ability and experience of those taking part
 
  • Promote the positive aspects of the sport (e.g. fair play)
 
  • Display consistently high standards of behaviour and appearance
 
  • Follow all guidelines laid down by the national governing body and the club
 
  • Hold the appropriate, valid qualifications and insurance cover
 
  • Never exert undue influence over performers to obtain personal benefit or reward
 
  • Never condone rule violations, rough play or the use of prohibitive substances
