The five basic principles of Fair Play:
1. RESPECT THE RULES. 
2. RESPECT THE OPPONENTS. 
3. RESPECT THE OFFICIALS AND THEIR DECISIONS. 
4. HAVE EVERYONE PARTICIPATE. 
5. MAINTAIN YOUR SELF CONTROL AT ALL TIMES.

Fair Play DOES NOT CHANGE ANY RULES OF THE GAME.
Fair Play ENCOURAGES ALL PLAYERS TO BE AS COMPETITIVE AS POSSIBLE BUT WITHIN THE RULES.

Fair Play is introduced to promote SAFETY and RESPECT, and a positive environment in minor hockey for participants involved. The four main participant groups are; the players, the coaches, the officials, and the parents (spectators). How these four groups interact at any game determines how positive, or how negative the event becomes.

There are an increasing number of concerns becoming more evident in minor hockey today. These concerns go against the principles of Fair Play, what minor hockey represents, and the objectives of recreational minor hockey organizations.

Some concerns in minor hockey are; the lack of respect for opponents, verbal abuse of officials, inappropriate spectator behavior in the stands, violence on the ice, the win-at-all-costs attitude, the increased pressure on young players to win, and the lack of FUN for many.

Remember to cheer for the whole team,
we all wear the same jersey!

Congatulating the other team doesn't make you 
a bad parent!   It is JUST a game!

Brad Murphy - Head Coach, Western Prairie Thunder Midgets

ps. Gotta love the opening joke!

How to Host a Great Game A refresher on how to host a good game. It should be an enjoyable experience for the visiting town and the spectators.

Schedule your games through Jessica (834-2344) for rink and booth. Contact Barb Stefanuik for officials. Contact Clem to put your game on the website.

Workers on the gate should start before the visiting team arrives (about 1.5 hours prior to ice time!) Printed programs make the game much better for all.
50/50 collection should commence right away - Gate and 50/50 helps pay for referees and ice time and keeps fees low.
For games Pee Wee and up, it is advisable to have adult workers for the penalty boxes. For all levels, avoid having children in the clock/penalty box area for insurance and safety reasons. Remember that off-ice officials (scorekeepers, timekeepers, etc) are to remain neutral - no cheering!

Be sure visiting teams know where their dressing room is and have a key ready for them.
Manager or game timekeeper to set up game sheet and deliver to teams to fill out.
Game time keeper usually announces the game. Find out prior to the game how to pronounce the names of the visiting team.
Make sure clock and PA system are working and ready before the game.
Music is an amazing addition to the game during warm ups and play stoppages. Announcing is done during game play.
For playoff games, especially provincial games, announce the players, have them line up on the blue lines to 'Oh Canada". Either have someone sing it or have it on a CD.

Provincial games: Your provincial coordinator will tell you who schedules refs/lines and whether goal judges might be required.

Thanks and good luck to you all for a Great Game!

Well, another hockey season is here
And I am writing to you for just one reason
Please don't scream, curse or yell
Remember I am not in the NHL

I am only 8 years old
I can't be bought, traded or sold
I'm not looking for hockey fame
I just want to have fun and play the game

Please don't make me feel as if I committed a sin
Because sometimes my team didn't win
I don't want to be that great you see
I'd rather play and just be me

And so, in closing, here is one tip
Remember, the name of the game is . . . sportsmanship

RESPECT THE OFFICIALS AND THEIR DECISIONS.
HAVE EVERYONE PARTICIPATE.
MAINTAIN YOUR SELF CONTROL AT ALL TIMES.
