Coaches and
Officials Code of Ethics
I understand that as a coach or official, I must be a positive role
model for the players and parents, and that I will exert a tremendous influence, either
good or bad, in the education of the players. I will strive to instill in every
child a sense of self esteem, responsibility, confidence, dignity and self discipline,
through an emphasis on fair play, teamwork, leadership, scholarship, respect and the rules
of CMAC sports.
I will never place the value of winning or my own personal
satisfaction, above the value of instilling the highest desirable ideals of character and
Christianity, that is consistent with a Catholic School Education.
As a coach, I will devote time, thought, planning and study to the
rules of the game. I will prepare a practice and a game plan realizing that this
will best enable me to teach team sports. I will attend all league provided training
and meetings.
Coaches are totally responsible for their players, team staff and
spectators. The Head Coach is totally responsible for instructing everyone on the
league’s expectations for game field behaviors.
Coaches will take an active role in the prevention of drug, alcohol
and tobacco use, and under no circumstances will partake or allow these activities to
occur during practices or games.
As an example to the children, before and after the game, the
Coaches and Officials will establish a Christian tone by exchanging friendly greetings.
I will teach the children that both teammates and opponents are entitled to be
treated with respect and dignity, and if my team should lose, then their focus is on
improving on their teams performance and not on what the other teams coach or official
did.
Officials will have the total respect and support of the coach.
A coach will not indulge in conduct that will incite players or spectators against
the officials. Public criticism of officials or touching of the officials is
unethical and grounds for suspension from the next game. If the conduct continues it
will result in suspension from the league.
I understand that an effort on my part to undermine these values is
reason for my suspension from the league and, if asked by the league, will peacefully
resign from my coaching activities.
