CODES OF CONDUCT

Australians are justifiably proud of the place sport has in their daily lives. But what is equally important to us all is the way the “game” is played and the manner in which our sportsmen and sportswomen conduct themselves.

Unfortunately, some people (both participants and spectators) fail to live up to the traditional values of sport. Young people involved in sport have a right to participate in a safe and supportive environment. Over zealous parents and adults, and ill tempered, disrespectful athletes, sometimes need to be reminded of appropriate standards of behaviour for Little Athletics.

Little Athletics is a community activity, which utilises athletics to help foster the development of Australia’s children, and as such, endorses and applies the following Codes of Conduct. The privilege of membership with the Little Athletics NSW (LANSW) may  be withdrawn where it is determined that a person’s conduct is  inconsistent with the mission of the LANSW and in clear breach of the Codes of Conduct.
