The values of sport;
Sport is part of the Queensland way of life. It provides a wonderful opportunity for people to be active and healthy and enhance their social skills and networks. As junior participation provides the platform for ongoing involvement in sport, it is essential it is a positive experience for all involved.
At the heart of sport are values which promote the fun, safe and fair environment needed to ensure players, parents, coaches, offi cials and administrators enjoy sport and stay involved. Only people who commit to these values can really enjoy participating in sport.

INTEGRITY

• Set an example for others in the way you conduct yourself in playing, volunteering or spectating and in winning or losing.
• Encourage positive actions and appreciation for people’s good behaviour and involvement – always say ‘well done’ and ‘thanks’.
• Advocate a pure sport environment, free of alcohol, and performance enhancing and illegal drugs.

RESPECT
Value the rights, dignity and worth of every individual.
• Everyone has the same value and right to be respected regardless of gender, age, ability, ethnic origin or religion.

FUN
