Code of Conduct

MEMBERS’ CODE
• Enjoy yourself and have fun.
• Respect the dignity and worth of all members regardless of their ability or cultural origin.
• Treat all members as you would like to be treated.
• Show respect for and co-operate with your teachers and other club members. Without them there would be no club.
• Always respect your teacher’s decisions.
• Be humble when you win and graceful when you lose. Don’t seek excuses or blame the judges or your teacher if you lose but aim for self-improvement.
• Do not criticise other members or parents.
• Be a good sport in class and in competition. Applaud other competitors whether they are from your club or another.
• Work equally hard for yourself and your team. The team will benefit and so will you.
• Be loyal to your club, support it and be proud to represent it. The club exists to help you achieve.

PARENTS’ CODE
• Encourage children to participate in class, don’t force them. Remember that children participate for their own enjoyment.
• Focus on the child’s efforts and performance rather than on winning or losing.
• Respect the dignity and worth of all members regardless of their ability, appearance or cultural origin.
• Never ridicule or yell at a child for making a mistake or for losing.
• Always respect your child’s teacher and their decisions made in class.
• Remember that children learn best by following your example. Applaud all competitors, not just those from your club.
• Show appreciation for teachers, committee members, officials and judges. Without them your child could not participate.
