Cricket Coach
"To instil the sport of cricket with fun for all"
Etiquette..
"manners, good manners, protocol, custom, decorum."
"Rules of Acceptable Behaviour"
"Its not Cricket" is a term used a lot in today's society, so let
your attitude and behaviour on and off the field be a positive
example to all.
Codes of Conduct
Your chosen Cricket Club should have in place a Code of Conduct for
all. This would include Players, Coaches, Officials, Volunteers,
Helpers, Parents, Guardians and Young Cricketers (COLTS).
Check with your Coach and or Team Manager for details of the Code of Conduct you should adhere to.
Cricket Coaches play an important and crucial role in the development of the game of cricket and in the lives of all players they coach.
