CONDUCT

The Coastal FC Winter Classic has a zero-tolerance policy for verbal and/or physical abuse of any referee by players, team officials, parents or spectators and will take any infraction seriously (potential suspension for entire event or team expulsion from the tournament)

​

​

It is the responsibility of the Club/Team staff to control the conduct of its parents and other spectators.

 

Failure to do so may result in a warning to the coach or person acting on the coach’s behalf. If unacceptable behaviour persists, the referee may terminate the match.

 

All participants should be aware that Coastal FC Staff have the authority and right to remove any unruly or uncivil spectators from the Centre.
