Sample codes of conduct for parents, children and staff

We've developed these sample codes of conduct for you to download and use as a guide when creating your own.

They can help you to promote positive behaviour and manage poor behaviour in your sport or activity. 

Each code has been written with the intended audience in mind using age- and role-appropriate language and examples, for example, the code for young children, up to eight years old is just five simple steps, while the codes for older age groups are move comprehensive. 

Why use codes of conduct in sport?

The codes are a way of setting clear expectations for everyone involved in sport, including coaches, parents and cares and the children and young people themselves. T

By setting clear procedures and expectations of how everyone should behave, they can help keep everyone safe.
