Manual of Operations - Code of Conduct (Alcohol, Drugs, Photographic, Social Media)
Hello Coaches and Managers
Could you please pass this on to your parents as a
reminder of our policies concerning the use of Alcohol and Drugs, Social Media
and Photographic Devices. Please CC me on the email as well. As cell phones are
the hot topic, the easiest policy for everyone is to turn off all cell phones in
the dressing room.
Thanks Lynda
