- I will respect everyone involved in Netball, regardless of their age, gender, race, ethnicity, disability, religious beliefs, occupation, or sexuality.

- will not say or do anything unfriendly, hurtful, or inappropriate. This includes posting on social media in a negative manner.

- I will make the coaches aware of any injuries or illness at the start of a training session.
- I will put my phone away at the start of training sessions, so I can participate fully.

- I will dress appropriately for training and matches.
- I will allow everyone (including myself) to get the most out of training sessions, by actively working hard to follow instructions and executing drills as instructed.
- I will maintain my spot on a team by being dedicated and committed to training, and being the best teammate, I can be. I understand that if I do not meet these expectations, I could lose my spot on my respective team.
- Applicable to under 18s – if my behaviour is disruptive/unacceptable at training and/or matches, then parent(s)/carer(s) will be made aware, and a warning given. If unacceptable behaviour continues, then a player may be asked to leave Hillcrest.
