WELCOME Welcome to SACSA Sport. Please keep this booklet readily available to reference and use throughout the calendar year to assist you with your planning to be involved in SACSA’s sporting programs.

PHILOSOPHY AND RATIONALE

The South Australian Christian Schools Association exists primarily to give its member schools the opportunity

for participation in the sports offered within this document.

The aims of SACSA sport are to promote and develop Christian community within its member schools and to witness to each other and the wider community an authentic faith. Such an approach primarily emphasizes the following aspects of sporting competition:

o The pleasure of both individual and team participation o The cognitive, aesthetic, expressive, physical, cultural and social benefits for each individual involved. o The cultivation of the most important character qualities and attitudes; principally good sportsmanship,

persistence, courage and commitment.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES

SACSA desire is to promote broad participation in sport as part of the curriculum in all Christian Schools in South

Australia and undertake to increase the quality and quantity of such activities within existing school frameworks. SACSA aims to provide avenues for the development for students who show ability in sports, with representative

opportunities existing at both the local and national level. SACSA’s main aim is to develop the collective spirit of unity, cooperation and friendship, in a positive, fun filled

structured environment. SACSA sport is characterised by fun, enjoyment, participation, competition, challenge, character development and social interaction. SACSA is highly committed to establishing a wholesome competition structure so that children and young adults can benefit from their experiences.

Wholesome competition that is commensurate with the age, interest and ability of each child emphasises participation rather than winning or losing.

Competition exists in the daily life of every child in sport and in most aspects of life. Competition provides stimulation and challenges as well as the opportunity to apply, test and further develop

skills in a game situation. Students should be satisfied with competing to the best of their ability and spectator behaviour should reflect this emphasis.

Participation, developmental experience and enjoyment are the intrinsic goals of competitive sport in primary and secondary schools.

If you have any further questions please contact the SACSA Sports Administrator with the provided contact information in the contacts section of this booklet.

FIRST AID

First Aid will be present at each carnival, but it is expected that schools are still responsible to attend to their own students’ first aid.

HOT WEATHER POLICY

In any outdoor event when the weather is forecast to be 36 degrees Celsius or above on the 6pm Channel 9 evening news prior to an outdoor event – the event will be cancelled the following day. Individual schools are responsible to inform their parents of a possible or impending cancelled event. Schools are also responsible to inform their parents when an event is cancelled. Students should have sunscreen available in their school area. All students are asked to provide their own water bottles to drink from and refill. It is recommended that all students have two litres of water each on a mild to warm day, and up to four litres on a hot day. It is very important that students remain hydrated between events and keep out of the sun to conserve energy. Water is the preferred fluid for rehydration. Sports drinks such as Powerade could be useful for replacing lost fluids and carbohydrates. Competitors should not eat inappropriate food/drink (pies/pasties/hotdogs/soft drink) until all their events have been completed. Shade will be provided at the event site. Students should seek out available shade during rest periods or at times when they are not competing. Hats should be worn at all times excluding when directly competing. Please ensure students are appropriately dressed for the event.

SUN PROTECTION POLICY

It is well known that Australia has the highest incidence of skin cancer in the world. Levels of ultraviolet radiation are particularly high in many locations around Australia. Many sporting events organised by SACSA are conducted outdoors and in locations that have been identified as high

skin cancer risk areas, particularly at certain times of the day. It is therefore important for SACSA to protect students and staff, to the greatest extent possible, from the dangers of

exposure to the sun.

AIMS

To promote an awareness of the dangers of exposure to the sun and the need for protective measures. The need for positive attitudes and responsible behaviours towards skin protection. Practices which can reduce the incidence of skin cancer.

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES

In order to ensure that all participants at SACSA events are afforded the best possible protection from skin damage caused by the sun, the following implementation strategies are recommended:

SACSA schools should ensure that team uniforms are suitable for the locations to be visited and that hats are included when traveling to high risk venues.

SACSA, where possible, should ensure that adequate shade areas are provided at competition venues. SACSA schools should ensure that their staff members provide their students with adequate instruction on sun sense

and protection measures. SACSA will encourage that team officials provide modelling behaviours which are appropriate for protection from the

sun. SACSA will encourage all officials and participants to embrace the following protective measures when exposed to

the sun: The wearing of hats when appropriate The use of broad spectrum sunscreen Use available shade areas whenever possible

BLOOD POLICY

At all times play must be stopped by an official to tend to any player who is injured or when an injury is suspected. “Personal safety is paramount”. In the case of an open cut or abrasion where bleeding is evident, the injured player shall be withdrawn from the competition, by an official and will not return until the bleeding has stopped, the wound completely covered and any evident blood on the uniform or equipment has been removed.

SMOKING & ALCOHOL POLICY

All SACSA officials / coaches / parents / spectators and participants are reminded that smoking and the drinking of alcohol is prohibited during school hours whether at school or SACSA sports carnivals. It is necessary that this policy be observed at all SACSA sporting events.

CODES OF CONDUCT

CODES OF CONDUCT FOR PLAYERS

Show respect for sporting authorities, including the umpire and officials from both teams. Accept their decisions, cooperate with their instructions. If you really disagree ask one of your team authorities (such as captain, coach) to approach the official and then only during a break in the game. (1 Peter 2:13 – “Be submissive to every human institution and authority for the sake of the Lord.").

Always play by the rules. (2 Thessalonians 2:13 – “Do not become weary or lose heart in doing right.”). Be a good example of self-control. Control your temper and language. Abusing others or yourself is unacceptable in

any sport. (Proverbs 15:1 – “A soft answer turns away wrath but harsh words cause quarrels.”). Give your best effort - for your school, coach, team-mates and yourself. (1 Corinthians 10:31 – “….whatever you may

do, do all for the honour and glory of God.”). Be a good sport by welcoming visiting teams, exchanging pre-match courtesies and by thanking them, shaking hands

after the game. Be a good winner and a good loser. Treat all players as you would like to be treated. Don’t interfere with, or take unfair advantage of another player.

Have fun. All teams experience winning and losing. Learn to enjoy many different things in sport, not just the score. Make a commitment - stick to it. If you’re selected on a team, then it is important to be available for every game and

practice for the whole season. Show responsibility by being changed, punctual and notifying your coach in advance of any absences. There are serious consequences for both you and the team if you do not honour your commitment.

CODE OF CONDUCT FOR COACHES

Remember that children enjoy many different aspects of sport and that winning is only part of the fun. Be generous with praise, but discreet, constructive and very selective with criticism. (Colossians 3: 21 – "Fathers, do

not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged"). Teach your players to always play by the rules. (Thessalonians 2:13 – “Do not become weary or lose heart in doing

right.”). Ensure that equipment and facilities meet safety standards (OHS&W guidelines) and are appropriate to the age and

ability of your players. Be an example of respect for opponents, officials and other coaches. Use appropriate language at all times. (James

3: 2 – “If anyone can control his tongue, it proves that he has perfect control over himself in every other way.”). Be decisive, prompt and consistent in dealing with inappropriate behaviour from your players. (Proverbs 19:18 –

“Discipline your son in his early years while there is hope. If you don’t you will ruin his life.”). Where spectators’ (including parents) behaviour is inappropriate first warn, then ask them to remove themselves

from the spectator area. Make a written report to your schools the sports coordinator for any such incidents. Keep your own knowledge of coaching and the developments of the game up to date. At training give plenty of opportunity for each player’s development. Make training varied and enjoyable for your

players. Ensure that adequate supervision is provided for your school’s students

CODE OF CONDUCT FOR PARENTS AND SPECTATORS

Encourage your children to participate in sport. Give your guidance in their choice of sport without forcing them to play.

Parents and spectators must not challenge decisions made by officials in charge any problems or complaints should be taken up with the school’s coach or representative.

Have a ‘do your best’, rather than a ‘win at all costs’ attitude to your child’s involvement. (I Corinthians 10:31 “…Whatever you may do, do all for the honour and glory of God.”).

Encourage children to always play by the rules. (Thessalonians 2:13 – “Do not become weary or lose heart in doing right.”).

Be a good example of a spectator at your child’s games by applauding good play from both teams. Accept the decisions of umpires and other officials. Never criticize coaches, officials or any players. Avoid being overzealous to the point of embarrassing children. They value your encouragement but don’t want attention focused on their every move. (“…Parents…don’t keep scolding and nagging your children, making them angry and resentful.” Ephesians 6:4).

Verbal abuse / swearing or ridiculing player is not permitted Allow the coaches room to do their job. Don’t crowd around the team if players or the coach are distracted by your

presence. Encourage your child to be attentive and cooperative to their coach. Wait until the coach has dismissed the players before interacting.

Recognise the value and importance of coaches and other volunteers. Encourage them, thank them, and offer your support. Discuss your child’s involvement with them.

Never abuse or ridicule a player for making mistakes. (Colossians 3:21 – "Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged").

**The SACSA carnival convener or SACSA Sports Coordinator reserves the right to (in serious cases) remove any spectator/

coach / team or player from the carnival**
