House League - Fair Play Policy
General Principles
In all of its activities, KUSC emphasizes sporting and respectful behaviour on the part of all participants, including players, coaches, officials and parents. The Club believes that the involvement of all these groups will make the experience of playing soccer an enjoyable and entertaining one for the players. The Club also recognizes that all participants contribute to the efficient functioning of the entire operation.
Players
Fair play and co-operation is to be encouraged at all times. Players should recognize that they are part of a team; they share in its successes and failures. The emphasis for players should be consistent with the philosophy of the organization as a whole; players are encouraged to develop soccer skills in an environment that is sporting and respectful of others.
Coaching
Fair Play Code for Coaches and Managers
The coach's role is to be a resource person, willing and able to assist each player to develop to the fullest extent of his/her ability. Coaches set an example for the players, by practicing co-operation, self-discipline and respect for officials and opponents.
Games
Parents
Fair Play Code for Parents and Spectators
Parents are encouraged to participate as supporters and assistants. Parents enhance the enjoyment of the players, and help further the aims of the organization by attending games and encouraging the players. Positive support of the players (and of coaches and officials) is welcome and appreciated. Criticism of players, coaches or officials in not condoned; it has the effect of lowering morale, and fostering negative attitudes and behaviour on the part of players. If a parent has a concern about any aspect of the Club, or the operation of the league, he/she should speak first to the coach, who will respond to the concern or direct the parent to the appropriate person in the organization. If the concern relates to the behaviour of a coach, the parent may feel more comfortable contacting the appropriate convenor.
