WMG 2013 Code of Conduct
World Mini Games 2013 Guide Cork’s Premier Sporting Event www.worldminigames2013.com
The WMG 2013 requires all players, coaches, officials, parents and spectators to abide by a
"Code of Conduct" that embodies basic common sense principles, demonstrates consideration of
others, and reflects well on the Games.
Individuals and/or teams participating in the Games, as well as members of their retinue, that fail
to abide by the Code of Conduct will be subject to ejection and disqualification from the Tourna-
ment in the future.
The directors of the Tournament reserve the right to report violations of the Code of Conduct to
the board of directors of relevant leagues and associations.
Coaches, Managers and Coordinators are ultimately responsible to ensure compliance with the
Code of Conduct during The Games and are expected to promote behaviour consistent with The
Games philosophy.
The Code of Conduct
Players, coaches, officials, parents and spectators are to conduct themselves in a manner that
"Honours the Games" demonstrates respect for others and is consistent with the business-like
operation of The Games for the benefit of everyone involved.
Sportsmanship and the concepts of fair and honourable play are essential to the overall success
of The Games.
The emphasis on winning should never be placed above the value of good sportsmanship, the
concepts of fair and honourable play, or the spirit of The Games.
Poor sportsmanship, taunting, trash talking, fighting or other unbecoming behaviour on the part of
players, coaches, parents or spectators will not be tolerated.
Unsportsmanlike conduct will result in a penalty, but officials are authorized to handle such con-
duct in their reasonable judgment based on the circumstances, including ending the game (which
will be treated as a forfeit by each team regardless of "who did what"). Poor sportsmanship may
also result in ejectment from the game or the facility.

WMG 2013 Code of Conduct
World Mini Games 2013 Guide Cork’s Premier Sporting Event www.worldminigames2013.com
Only head coaches, managers or coordinators are permitted to address the officials; and are ex-
pected to do so in a courteous manner. Adults involved with the game are not permitted to openly
or maliciously criticize, badger, harass, or threaten an official. Derogatory comments are unac-
ceptable and subject to discipline, including ejectment.
Alcohol is not permitted at the WMG 2013 venues.
Officials are expected to conduct themselves as professionals and in a manner that demonstrates
courtesy and fairness to all parties while exercising their authority on the field.
Eligibility requirements, such as age and previous level of participation, must be followed. They
have been established to encourage and maximize participation, as well as promote safety. The
Games rely on the good faith of coaches, managers, coordinators and players as well as their
representations regarding age during the registration process.
We expect all coaches, managers and coordinators to understand the rules of the tournaments
and communicate them to members of the team and the team's entourage.
Head coaches, managers or coordinators may report any issues regarding officials and/or other
teams to field managers, Games directors or their representatives. We will use reasonable efforts
to address any concerns with such officials as appropriate in discretion.
Please be advised that WMG 2013 directors expect compliance with this Code of Conduct and
the "Honour the Game" philosophy to obviate the need for investigative activity or to adjudicate
disputes. Such activity represents a major distraction from efforts to oversee an enjoyable event
and a fun day of games for everyone.
WMG 2013 directors reserve the right to adopt and implement such other rules or regulations as it
determines are necessary or appropriate to further the goals and objectives of The Games.
Thank you for your help in promoting these principles and the "Honour the Games" philosophy.
