Competition bylaws, policies & conduct codes
By-Laws
Our Competition By-Laws govern our competition play. All registered players and teams at SCNA are bound by our Competition By-Laws. These are regularly reviewed and updated. For the most up to date version, please click on the button below.
CODES Of CONDUCT
Codes of Conduct outline behaviours that are expected of every person involved in the Stonnington City Netball Association. Every person who participates in our competitions should be able to enjoy their involvement, regardless of their role. This is achieved when there is a common understanding of accepted behaviours, and when everyone who enters our venues or participates in netball either on court or as a spectator, is conducting themselves in the appropriate manner.
We have adopted Netball Victoria's Codes of Conduct. There is a General Code of Conduct, which is to be viewed in addition to each of the Codes of Conduct outlined below.
These are the minimum expectations of behaviour for anyone who attends the venues of Stonnington City Netball Association and who participates in Stonnington City Netball Association competitions and programs.
Breaches of any of these codes of conduct may result in actions and penalties in accordance with Netball Victoria's Competition Regulations and our By-Laws.
Please see the following section below for information on the Child Safety Code of Conduct and the Child Safety in Netball Policy.
Child Safety
Stonnington City Netball Association is a Child Safe Organisation. We commit to providing a safe environment for children in netball and we follow the principles and benchmarks Netball Victoria has in place.
Our Association agrees to comply with the Child Safety Standards through the Child Safety in Netball Code of Conduct and the Child Safety in Netball Policy. All players, coaches, officials and spectators who are registered with us agree, at the point of registration, to comply with these Child Safety Standards.
The first step of the Child Safety policy requires that all individuals 18 years of age or older, who are in positions of responsibility where they have any interaction with junior members 17 years of age and younger, must have an approved Victorian Working With Children Check. These positions include Coaches, Team Managers, Umpires, Committee Members and Competition Staff.
