Code of Conduct: Parents
  • Do not force your children to participate in sports, but support their desire to play their chosen sport.  Children are involved in organized sports for their enjoyment - keep it fun.
     
  • Encourage your child to play by the rules - remember, children learn best by example, so applaud the good plays of both teams. 
     
  • Do not embarrass your child by yelling at players, coaches or officials.  By showing a positive attitude toward the game and all of its participants, your child will benefit.
     
  • Emphasize skill development and practices and how they benefit your young athlete. De-emphasize games and competition at the younger levels.
      
  • Know and study the rules of hockey, and support the officials on and off the ice.  This approach will help in the development and support of the game.  Any criticism of the officials only hurts the game.
     
  • Applaud a good effort in both victory and defeat and enforce the positive points of the game.  Never yell or physically abuse your child after the game or practice.  It is distasteful.  Work towards removing physical and verbal abuse in youth sports.
      
  • Recognize the importance of volunteer coaches.  They are important to the development of your child and the sport.  Communicate with them and support them.
     
  • All players on the bench should receive equal ice time during the game.  This is a guideline in keeping with the MYHL philosophy of participation and skill development for all players.  
     

  • If you enjoy the game, learn all you can and dedicate time as a volunteer.
         

Code of Conduct: Spectators
  • Display good sportsmanship.  Always respect players, coaches and officials.
     
  • Act appropriately, do not taunt or disturb other fans.  Enjoy the game together. 
     
  • Cheer good plays for all participants, avoid booing opponents.
     
  • Cheer in a positive manner and encourage fair play; profanity and objectionable cheers or gestures are offensive.
      
  • Help provide a safe and fun environment; throwing objects on the ice can cause injury to players and officials.
     
  • Do not lean over and pound on the glass; the glass surrounding the ice surface is part of the player area.
      
  • Support the referees and coaches by trusting their judgment and integrity.
     
  • Be responsible for your own safety and remain alert to help prevent accidents.
     
  • Respect locker rooms as private areas for players, coaches and officials.
