SPECTATORS
I will remember that participants play hockey for their enjoyment. They are not playing to entertain me.
I will not have unrealistic expectations. I will remember that players are not professionals and cannot be judged by professional standards.
I will respect the officials' decisions and I will encourage participants to do the same.
I will never ridicule a player for making a mistake during a game.
I will give positive comments that motivate and encourage continued effort.
I will condemn the use of violence in any form and will express my disapproval in an appropriate manner to coaches and the league officials.
I will show respect for my team's opponents, because without them there would be no game.
I will not use bad language, nor will I harass players, coaches, officials or other spectators.
