Coaches - Code of Conduct

The Coaches code of conduct, as documented on page 218 of the Motorcycling Australia 2006 Manual of Motorcycle Sport GCR’s is as follows.

a) Teach competitors to follow the rules.

b) Ensure that equipment and facilities meet safety standards and are appropriate to the age and ability of competitors.

c) Wherever possible, group competitors of similar age and ability.

d) Never ridicule a competitor for making a mistake or losing.

e) Be reasonable on your demands of a young competitors time, energy, and enthusiasm.

f) Remember that many competitors compete mainly for pleasure. Winning is only part of the fun.

g) Do not focus all of your energies on the most talented competitors. The "just average" need and deserve equal time.

h) Keep up to date with the latest coaching practices. In particular, the principles of growth and development of children.

i) Follow the advice of a physician when determining if an injured competitor is ready to recommence training or competition.

Motorcycling Queensland expects that all motorcycle coaches licenced through Motorcycling Queensland adhere to the above Coaches Code of Conduct.
