Sports Coaches Code of Conduct

Coaches play a crucial role in the development of any sport and in the lives of the athletes they coach. Good coaches ensure that individuals in sport have positive experiences and are therefore more likely to continue in their sport and achieve their potential.

This Code of Practice and Behaviour defines all that is best in good coaching and safeguarding practice.  It is important that all sports coaches abide by their own sports code of conduct and safeguarding policy for children and vulnarable adults and should understand that any breeches will be immidiately acted upon.  Our own Code of Practice and Behaviour and Safeguarding policy reflects this and is widely publicised around Northamptonshire as a mark of best practice.
