  • Encourage and guide performers to accept responsibility for their own behaviour and performance.
  • Ensure the activities they direct are appropriate for the age, maturity, experience and ability of the individual.
  • Promote positive aspects of Hockey (e.g. sportsmanship) and never condone rule violations or the use of prohibited substances.
  • Set a good example by displaying high standards of appearance and behaviour.
  • Take responsibility for the young people in their care until they have left the activity safely.
