cODE OF CONDUCT FOR PARENTS
1. I will not force my child to participate in hockey.
2. I will remember that my child plays hockey for his or her enjoyment, not mine.
3. I will encourage my child to play by the rules and to resolve conflict without resorting to hostility or violence.
4. 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 the game.
5. I will make my child feel like a winner every time by offering praise for competing fairly and hard.
6. I will never ridicule or yell at my child for making a mistake or losing a game.
7. I will remember that children learn by example. I will applaud good plays and performances by both my child's team and their opponents.
8. I will never question the official's judgment or honesty in public. I recognize officials are being developed in the same manner as players.
9. I will support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from children's hockey games.
10. I will respect and show appreciation for the volunteers who give their time to hockey for my child.
As a reminder to all parents, it is imperative to uphold a high standard of conduct while attending sporting events. We expect all parents to demonstrate respect towards players, coaches, officials, and other spectators at all times. Unsportsmanlike behavior, including yelling, arguing, or disrespectful comments, will not be tolerated. Remember that you are representing not only your child, but also our organization. Let's work together to create a positive and supportive environment for all involved. Thank you for your cooperation.
