CLUB VALUES
GREATNESS
To recognise, celebrate and add to our history, while behaving in a manner that reflects pride in our Club and ourselves. To give our local community something great to be very proud of.
- Support: attend matches of the club in a positive and enthusiastic manner.
- Presentation: (players) when on the field of play, display strong and positive body language and show that you are prepared and committed.
- Promote: be an ambassador for the club, share with your friends, family, neighbour’s, co-workers and classmates what makes us great.
- A force away: visit opposing clubs as an imposing and competitive club, while showing respect for the other club, their people and facilities.
- Online: social media is a great method of promoting our club, avoid using it for any negative comments or imagery regarding the club.
RESPECT
To show respect to every person and organisation (both internally and externally) that we interact with, and in turn, to earn the respect of others for all that we do as individuals and as a Club.
- Facilities: ensure all areas are left in a clean and tidy manner.
- Equipment: use equipment provided appropriately, ensure all items are secured and safe after training, matches and other events.
- “If they’re not their it’s not fair”: whinging, moaning or spreading rumours about fellow club members, especially if they are not there to defend themselves, is not fair.
- Umpires: umpiring stocks are limited and valued, treat them as you would your favourite club volunteer.
- Volunteers: our people have differing capacity to assist, show appreciation to all who donate their time, no matter how much it is.
