PLAYERS CODE OF ETHICS

All players will be reminded that we play to win and to have fun, and no matter the outcome , we play to honour the game and respect everyone involved. A truly complete hockey player is one who remembers these essential lessons and follows our Code of Ethics.

PARENT'S CODE OF ETHICS

We can sometimes lose sight of what really matters. In the heat of big game, watching our kids battle for pucks...It is important to remind ourselves that no matter what you think you're watching, the game must remain a game.

Both players and their "fan clubs" need to balance the intensity of hockey with the correct behaviour in and out of the rinks. At Hockey West Island, we always try to stay focussed on this code of Ethics. Please Respect the game, and all those who participate in it
