ADD ARTICLE ! DRESSING ROOM POLICY! ! I. The safety and comfort of girls playing in the NSGHA is a priority for the Association which starts in the dressing room. While the NSGHA allows some latitude at the Fundamentals / Novice level, all other divisions should be following these rules:! 2. No males allowed in the dressing room while the girls are changing. This includes members of the Coaching staff.! Any device with picture taking capabilities is prohibited from the Dressing Rooms.! 3. A Team Mom and/or Female Trainer should be designated to monitor* the dressing room at all times and not permit entry by males until girls are dressed.! 4. Coaches may implement rules that allow them to enter the dressing room 5 minutes prior to a game once change room supervisors give the all clear. Late arrivals should change in the washroom but still must receive the green light to enter from the Team Mom or Female Trainer .! 5. In accordance with the OWHA, NSGHA follows the “Two Deep Rule”. There must be at least 2 adult females in the dressing room at all times (for protection of the girls and parents) and these adults must ALWAYS be female. These change room supervisors must have a current Criminal Reference Check with Vulnerable Sector Screening on file with the NSGHA.! 6. * Monitoring includes prohibiting the use of cell phones and PDAs (Personal Digital Assistant).! 7. The Head Coach is accountable for ensuring these rules are followed.! ! ! Page 14! 7.9. The Coaches decision regarding playing time and positions will be made in the best interest of the team.! 7.10. No player may be denied ice time without an explanation by the Coach. ! ! Proposed new wording:! It is the expectation and intention of the Association that all coaching staff shall aim for fairness, development opportunity, communication and enjoyment for the team and players. Playing time for every player will be reasonable for the most part except for special situations, e.g. penalty killing, power play, and other game situations. Players should be given equal playing opportunity, but that does not necessarily equate to equal ice time.! Teams will be managed to ensure that all players have a positive experience. Coaches, players, parents, and league representatives should strive to represent the North Simcoe Girls Hockey Association in a first class manner. We expect our teams to exhibit good sportsmanship and class. Trash talking, inappropriate aggression towards other players and abuse of officials is not part of our culture and never should be. ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
