The athlete/coach relationship is a privileged one. Coaches play a critical role in the personal as well as athletic development of their athletes.

The executive members of the New Westminster Soccer Club(NWSC) have developed this Code of Conduct to clarify and distinguish approved, accepted, and ethical behaviour from that which is detrimental to the development of the sport of soccer and the players. The term Coach shall include, but is not limited to Head Coach and Assistant Coach.
