PLAYERS – PARENT – GUARDIAN
This Code of Conduct identifies the standard behaviour which is expected of all IMHA members including all players, guardians, parents, coaches, officials, volunteers, directors, officers, committee members, team managers, trainers, and administrators involved in IMHA activities and events.
The IMHA encourages an environment in which all individuals are treated with respect. Members and participants of the IMHA shall conduct themselves at all times in a manner consistent with the values of the IMHA which include fairness, integrity, and mutual respect for all.
During the course of all IMHA functions members shall avoid behaviour which brings the IMHA or the sport of hockey into disrepute, including, but not limited to, abusive use of alcohol, use of non-medical drugs, use of alcohol by minors, and use of profanity.
IMHA members and participants shall at all times adhere to the IMHA operational policies and procedures, to rules governing IMHA functions, and to the rules and regulations governing any competitions in which the member participates on behalf of the IMHA.
Members of the IMHA shall not engage in any activity or behaviour which interferes with a competition or with any player or team’s preparation for a competition, or which endangers the safety to others.
Members of the IMHA shall refrain from comments or behaviours (this includes the use of social media) that are disrespectful, offensive, abusive, racist, or sexist. In particular, behaviour that constitutes harassment or abuse will not be tolerated and will be dealt with under the IMHA Harassment Policy.
In the event of an alleged violation of the IMHA Code of Conduct, a written complaint must be submitted to the IMHA president.
Failure to comply with the IMHA Code of Conduct may result in disciplinary action. Such action may result in the member losing all privileges that come with membership in the IMHA including the opportunity to participate in IMHA activities and events, both present and future.
