Junior Code of Conduct
Junior Code of Conduct
Troon Welbeck Golf Club is dedicated to creating an environment that nurtures the enjoyment and enthusiasm of every member of our club.
We want to empower our juniors to base their conduct on personal integrity and an acceptance of rules, fairness, equality, respect for others and a sense of what is right.
As a Junior Member, I agree to:
- Be friendly and supportive and offer help when needed.
- Practice and participate fairly and be trustworthy.
- Behave respectfully towards coaches and volunteers, club staff, officials, other golfers, parents, team managers and spectators.
- Respect the rules of the club and the facilities we use.
- Respect the rights, dignity and worth of all participants regardless of age, disability, gender, ability, race, cultural background, religious beliefs or sexual identity.
- Always strive to do my best and refrain from inappropriate conduct towards others, whether physical, verbal, written or emotional, in person or through social media.
- Be a positive role model, refrain from bullying and avoid inappropriate peer pressure.
- Set a good example through punctuality, language, behaviour and respect for equipment and others.
- Not smoke, consume alcohol or use drugs of any kind.
- Report inappropriate behaviour or risky situations to a member of staff.
Our club recognises that creating a supportive atmosphere allows everyone to participate and compete to the best of their abilities. While we have high expectations of our juniors' behaviour, juniors can expect the same standards in return from us.
You have the right to:
- Be safe and happy while participating in golf.
- Be respected, treated fairly and participate on an equal basis appropriate to your ability.
- Be protected from abuse by others from within or outside the club.
- Ask for help.
- Be believed.
- Be listened to.
- Be referred for professional help if needed.
Breaches of the Junior Code of Conduct will be dealt with in accordance with the club's disciplinary procedures.
Junior members have the same rights and privileges as playing and social members of the club.
We ask all juniors to be civil and respectful while using the clubhouse.
If you have a concern or would like to talk to somebody, help and support are available.
