Policy: Parental Code of Conduct

Parental Code of Conduct

As a parent:

• I will encourage my player to follow this code of conduct.
• I will provide an encouraging and supportive environment for my player.
• I will be respectful toward my player’s coaches, his / her teammates, opponents, referees, other parents, and spectators.
• I recognize that harmful behaviours including, but not limited to, bullying, violence, promoting violence, disrespect toward others and foul language will not be tolerated. Such behaviours may result in disciplinary action which includes, but is not limited to, a warning(s), suspension(s) or ban - where a suspension or ban would involve exclusion from club fields for games or practices.

The intention of this Code of Conduct is to promote respect and fair play for all members of the soccer community.

Disciplinary Action

Any breach of this code can be sent to rcunited.executive@gmail.com. Critical information such as the day, time, details of the occurrence and persons involved or who may have witnessed the situation should be included in the correspondence. Any type of behaviour as described above will be evaluated by the Board of Executives for consideration of any necessary disciplinary action, which includes but is not limited to, warning and/or ban from soccer premises. 

An alternative avenue that can be used to report any situation of harassment, abuse or discrimination either as a victim or witness is to contact the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport.
