EVENT / FESTIVAL / COMPETITION CODE OF CONDUCT

All attending Parents/Carers/Spectators/Staff at NSSP events must set an example for the young people participating by demonstrating the highest standards of sporting behaviour. 

These events are for young people and their participation & enjoyment is the most important element of the day. 

We encourage & remind all Parents/Guardians/Carers/Spectators/Staff to: 

  • Always approach the event organiser in the first instance with any issue or concern.  Please do not approach Sports Leaders with any concerns.  
  • Encourage your child/ pupils/ team to learn the rules & play within them 
  • Discourage unfair play & do not let children argue with the officials  
  • Set a good example by recognising fair play & applauding good performances 
  • Respect the official’s decision, especially if those officials are young Sport Leaders. These young leaders have kindly given up their time to volunteer at today’s event – without their help these events would simply not happen  
  • Give encouragement to everyone who is participating 
  • Always use correct & proper language and refrain from shouting at any participants or Leaders
