Sport Expectations
St Hilda’s Sport Expectations for Students & Parents
The purpose of this policy is to ensure that SHCS sport is an organised and well run activity which involves dedicated individuals who are committed to making sport and physical activity available to all students no matter what ability. Being a member of a St Hilda's sport team and representing your school in any co curricular activity is a privilege, not a right. Therefore, students will be removed from teams if they are not adhering to the expectations, values and the SHCS code of conduct
Objective:
To ensure that our school values underpin all the we do in sport and can be transferred to other areas in life: Be You, Better Together, Explore Faith and Can Do.
To give opportunity for participation in competitive or social activities and to create a sporting culture of pride and passion in every individual.
To develop positive sporting attitudes where participation, sportsmanship and safety is upheld.
When signing up to any sport offered at St Hilda’s, it is expected that all students and parents adhere to the following:
Agrees to wear the correct school sport uniform as outlined in this GuideBook. This includes, to all trainings, PE Classes, games and tournaments.
To wear NO Jewellery to training and games.
Agrees to play to the outlined codes of behaviour.
Agrees to pay fees upon sign up or once teams are announced. Once a student has registered and been placed in a team and that competition starts, fees are NON-REFUNDABLE unless contact is made with the Director of Sport with regards to reasons for pulling out ie injury/illness. For tournaments, if your child has given permission to attend and is unable to attend due to sickness and no replacement has been able to found, tournament costs will still be charged.
Commit to ALL training and games and other team commitments unless prior approval has been obtained or advised. Communicate with coach/manager on absences.
To always wear correct safety gear when required ie mouth guards, shin guards, hockey masks etc.
Report all injuries/illness to the Director of Sport & Tolcarne Management. Visit medical professionals or onsite physio and must provide a medical certificate/clearance on return to physical activity including PE Lessons.
To be honest regards injuries and health to coaches, management and team mates.
To always wear seatbelts when travelling in school vans or cars as required.
St Hilda’s Collegiate has a proud history of our students committing to their sports. It is expected that once the student has been named in a team that they are committed to attending all training and games that are expected within that sport. Whether the team is in a competitive or social grade the commitment is the same. The school provides a large number of volunteer coaches and managers and therefore we expect the students to let them know of any unavailability during the season with a reasonable amount of notice.
