COACHES CODE OF CONDUCT
|
|
|
The good coach will be concerned primarily
with the well-being, health and future of the individual
player and only secondarily with the optimising of performance.
Coaches must not encourage players to violate the laws
of the game and should actively seek to discourage such
action. Furthermore, coaches should encourage players
to obey the spirit of such laws. Coaches must not compromise
their players by advocating measures, which could be
deemed to constitute seeking an unfair advantage. (i.e.
cheating,
diving, bullying). Coaches should treat opponents and
officials with due respect, both in victory and defeat
and should encourage their players to act in a similar
manner.
Coaches must accept responsibility for the conduct of
their players insofar as they will undertake to discourage
inappropriate behaviour. Coaches must be fair to all
players and not be concerned with personal gain. All
players deserve their moment, "hour" despite
ability.
Clonakilty A.F.C. believes in the concept of participation,
fun and development. Lead by Example & Demand Best
Practice Standards |
| |
|
|
Personal
Standards |
| |
Coaches are given a position of trust
by parents/guardians and players and are therefore expected
to show the highest standards of behaviour
whilst in the company of under age players.
As a coach of under age players, you act in "loco
parentis" and therefore your duty
of care is more onerous than that of
a coach to an adult team.
Personal appearance is a matter of taste, but the coach
has an obligation to project an image of health, cleanliness
and functional efficiency.
Consumption of alcohol before coaching, or whilst players
are present should be avoided. As persons responsible
for the well being of young people it is inappropriate
to smoke in their presence or to behave in any fashion
inconsistent with your position of responsibility.
Coaches must treat everyone equally within the context
of their activity, regardless of sex, ethnic origin, religion
or political persuasion. |

|
Safe
Practice |
| |
Coaches have a responsibility to ensure the safety of
players as far as possible within the limits of their
control. A first aid kit should be available at all training
sessions & matches.
Parents /guardians should be notified of injuries//illness
which their child may incur whilst participating. Also
to inform parents/guardians if their child becomes upset
for whatever reason
.
Parents/guardians should be informed of start/finish times
of training sessions and matches.
Always ensure "two deep" supervision (two adults
over 18yrs) is enforced for all training sessions and
matches. (Child protection act) |
