Code of Conduct

The following is taken from the NGHA by-laws.

Article 8 – NGHA Code of Conduct
This Code of Conduct identifies the standard of behaviour, which is expected of all NGHA members, including players, coaches, parents, directors, volunteers, chaperones and others.

• NGHA is committed to providing a sports environment in which all individuals are treated with respect. Members shall conduct themselves at all times in a fair and responsible manner.
• Members shall refrain from comments or behaviours, which are disrespectful, offensive, abusive, racist or sexist. In particular, behaviour, which constitutes harassment or abuse, will not be tolerated.
• Members shall at all times adhere to NGHA operational policies and procedures.
• Members shall not engage in activity or behaviour, which endangers the safety of others.

Failure to comply with this Code of Conduct will result in disciplinary action, suspension or release from membership. Such action will result in the member losing the privileges that come with membership in NGHA, including the opportunity to participate in the local association’s activities.
