Be a Good Sport – Basketball SA

BEHAVIOUR MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK

Basketball SA recognises that an inclusive and positive culture is needed to enable participants to learn and grow in an environment that is free from harassment, bullying, degrading, or intimidating behaviour.

This framework applies to all people in attendance at Basketball SA competitions or tournaments, including coaches, team managers, staff, players, referees, other officials, and spectators. It is expected that affiliated members adopt this framework (or similar) for domestic competitions to ensure consistency of expectations within the basketball community.

We want to be the sport of choice.
We want to have a united culture.
We want to embrace a diverse community.

Club Respect Podcast

Basketball South Australia’s Operations Manager, Jacqui McConville featured on Club Respect: Smart Plays podcast to tackle all things difficult in sport and positive social change.

In this episode they speak about the tinderbox atmosphere of Basketball and how leagues and associations around the state are taking a unified stand against anti-social behaviour.

We all play a Role

This is an absolutely brilliant idea. My daughter as a newly green shirt umpire & district player said she feels the coaches/captains see her as a person.

My son's confidence has really increased since introducing himself to coaches as part of the Behaviour Management Framework Pre-game huddles. As their first interaction is then positive rather than being called out during the game.
