Appropriate Behaviour Sequence

This is a sequence of steps a coach will take if a player is being disruptive during sessions. This will apply to behaviour such as:

• Repeatedly not responding to Coach instructions

• Swearing, name calling

• Yelling inappropriately

• Physical contact, hitting, kicking, pushing, biting etc 

• Bullying in any way 

The following sequence is put in place to ensure that all players feel safe, have an enjoyable experience and are able to make the most of every session; phases will progress each time a player is disruptive after action from the coach has been taken. 

Step 1. Initially the Coach will ensure the player is aware of the instructions and clearly ask the player to modify their behaviour.

Step 2. The Player will be asked to sit out for at least 5 minutes of the training and until they agree to behave appropriately.

Step 3. The Player will be asked to sit out for a further 5 minutes of the training and until they agree to behave appropriately.

Step 4. After this training session parents will be called or emailed in regard to their players behaviour and parents will be asked to attend the next session and watch from the sideline in order to monitor player behaviour.

Step 5. If behaviour doesn’t improve appropriately the Player will be removed from the program with no refund.
