PURPOSE

Fair Play encourages and expects all players on all teams to be as competitive as possible.

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE will be the following:

FAIR PLAY: All team players are to be played equally during every game with only one exception. In the last 5 minutes of a “Meaningful Game”, Coaches may shorten the bench. A “Meaningful Game” is one that could enable the entire team to move on to further play thereby getting all players one or two more games. This may include any games leading to and including Provincials. The foregoing also applies to Goalies.

All Truro Minor Lacrosse Coaches are required to devise a playing strategy which allows all players on each team to participate fully and equally during all games. Failure to to adhere to this policy will lead to disciplinary action by the Board of Truro Minor Lacrosse, which disciplinary action could include suspension/replacement of coaches on team rosters.
