New Code of Conduct and Disciplinary Code - Have a read now !

We've always had arrangements in place to deal with discipline and conduct issues both on and off the pitch. Timperley Sports Club also has in place expectations and a disciplinary process. These are rarely and we'd like to keep it that way !

To make it clearer for everyone we've updated the 'Information' area of the website:
http://www.timperleyhockeyclub.com/a/codes-and-policies-35090.html?page=2 with two new codes that cover all involved in hockey at Timperley:

- THC Disciplinary Code - that covers on and off hockey related behaviour and conduct

- THC Code of Conduct - setting out at a high level expectations for all involved in hockey at Timperley

For one pitch conduct and behaviour it's really important that players and officials (coaches and managers or anyone who receives a card) are aware that all cases where a Red Card is issued or, when a player has accumulated three yellow cards (in a season) will require review by the Disciplinary Committee and the person will need to attend a meeting. This is in additional to any league reporting requirement or attendance at league disciplinary hearings.

Captains are responsible for recording and reporting on pitch disciplinary matters and cards and reporting details to Rob Judd, THC Secretary.

Players, Officials and those involved with hockey at Timperley need to read both Codes and if you have any queries discuss initially with your team captain, club captain or one of the committee. Or email timperleyhc@gmail.com

These follow best practice standards across our sport and provide a consistent and fair way to manage a range of conduct related matters. In additional we've provided details of the Timperley Sports Club Rules so members can be clear on the wider Club's expectations and disciplinary process.

We welcome the support of all involved in hockey at Timperley in upholding the spirit of hockey on and off the pitch and in creating a safe, welcoming and friendly environment for all.

We;ll be updating more of our policies and codes as part of the work on #GreatHockeyClub and to continue to have 'one approach' for all our main academy, men's and women's key processes and arrangements. Simplifying things and reducing duplication was one of the benefits of the merger of the sections.
