Developmentally responsive middle schools help students develop and maintain healthy minds and bodies. These schools
also help students understand their own physical development through the Physical Education program. The Physical
Education program has three components; curricular, intramural and interscholastic. The interscholastic program should
follow practices that are developmentally responsive and improve students‘ cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength and
endurance, co-ordination, agility, skill level and self esteem. Positive attitudes and behaviours need to be developed and
reinforced to foster the competitive spirit which demonstrates good sportsmanship. In addition, interscholastics should
develop life-long sport participation and the ethical pursuit of excellence to support students to be the best they can be.
Interscholastic athletics should be open to the entire student body.

below with respect to general issues and liability.
GENERAL
1. Student safety and education value of program will be of prime importance on all out-of-school programs. All
extended trips should include an emergency action plan (see YS or Safety Guidelines).
2. When more than one coach is involved, one of them shall be designated as coordinator of the program and will
assume overall responsibility for the organization and ensures that sound decisions are made on the trip.
3. The teacher shall review the educational value of the program with the principal and receive the principal‘s

7. The coach will review acceptable standards of behavior with the students prior to the trip and will conduct any
organizational or training meetings necessary.
8. Any significant changes in the plan will be communicated to the principal and the parents.
9. Should an emergency arise, the teacher is responsible for notifying the principal as soon as possible.
10. Before leaving, a list of all participants with their phone numbers must be submitted to the office. It is
recommended that a record of the vehicle(s) by which the student(s) will be transported be left with the school

11. It is crucial that a high standard of morale is maintained on all excursions by providing good leadership, good
management, and proper control and supervision of the activity.

Liability
Since Out-of-School Programs require an increased level of supervision, liability of supervisors is a concern.
Supervisors must have a clear idea of the standard of care that must be adhered to and the responsibility that they
have for the students in their care. There must be adequate supervision of the students both qualitatively and
quantitatively. Supervisors must ensure that proper instruction is given for activities that the students undertake.
It is also important that supervisors ensure that proper, safe equipment is used for any activity. A proper standard
of care must be given and this will vary depending on the activity. Supervisors must always act in a ―reasonable‖
manner when they have charge of students. It is important that supervisors understand how ―reasonable‖ care
should be maintained; therefore the following guidelines are emphasized:
Rules have been developed to govern the conduct of the students.
The supervisor is competent at that particular skill.
Good discipline is maintained and the students are orderly.
The supervising practices are consistent with past practice.
Liability Insurance
The River East Transcona School Division carries public liability insurance, which provides coverage to Trustees,
Administrators, Teachers, other employees, volunteers, and students for financial loss up to $30 million in the case
of legal liability, while transporting students on behalf of the Board. This amount acts as an extension of a person‘s
normal automobile insurance. For individual‘s using their own automobile to transport students, it is
recommended that the owner carry at least $1 million of public liability insurance.
Group insurance must be purchased for all out-of-country trips. Cost of this insurance will be charged to the
participants.

TEAM “PERSON-TO-PERSON” DEFENSIVE RULES GUIDELINES
The River East Transcona School Division Junior High Basketball League does not allow "true" zone or
zone press type of defenses. Coaches should adhere to the following team person-to-person defensive
guidelines:
a) Each defensive player must be assigned to "guard" a specific offensive player (he/she should not be
assigned an "area").
b) Each defensive player must closely guard his/her check/assigned player when the offensive player is a
scoring threat (i.e. has the ball within 20' of the basket, or is within 20' of the basket, and is one
perimeter pass from the ball).
*20 feet is the radius of the end line and the top of the key (high school 3 point line)
c) The defensive player may sag and help if his/her check/assigned player is:
i) not a scoring threat
ii) is 2 perimeter passes away from the ball
NOTE: A ‗sagging‘ person defense is acceptable. Players do not have to follow their check outside
the key when the ball is on the far side of the key. The defense may sag to the middle of the court
provided that only one foot is in the key‖ (one foot must be maintained outside the key).
d) The defensive players may double team the ball, temporarily, to attempt a steal inside their back court,
however, the remaining 3 defensive players are not allowed to "zone". Any team defense which
employs planned or obvious traps (i.e. double teams) as the ball handler approaches or crosses the
centre line is essentially employing "zone" concepts.
e) "Closely guarded" is defined as being within 6' (i.e. 2 steps) of the assigned "check".
NOTE: If rules regarding pressure or person- to-person coverage are not adhered to‘ in the spirit‘ to
which they are designed, the official will have the jurisdiction to warn the offending team. A second
violation may result in a team technical foul.

TRUE SPORT – PRINCIPLES FOR SPORT
GO FOR IT
Always rise to the challenge

Do something that helps your community.
FAIR PLAY
B1. FAIR PLAY PHILOSOPHY
The Council accepts and promotes the Principles of Fair Play as developed by the Fair Play Commission,
under the direction of the Federal Minister of Fitness and Amateur Sport 1986. Fair Play is about how
we behave and how we treat others when we play:
"Fair Play is a philosophy that provides beneficial sport experience by emphasizing the qualities of
integrity, fairness, and respect at all times. With them, the spirit of competition thrives, fueled by honest
rivalry, courteous relations and graceful acceptance of the results. The Fair Play philosophy is built on
the premise that sport is an ethical pursuit that develops character and shapes attitudes." (St. Vital All
Play-Fair Committee, December 10, 1992).
"Fair Play, the attitude lasts a lifetime." (MHSAA)
B2. THE FIVE PRINCIPLES OF FAIR PLAY
i) Respect for the rules
ii) Respect for the officials
iii) Respect for your opponents
iv) Give everyone an equitable chance to participate
v) Maintain self-control at all times
Revised June 2011 48
APPENDIX C
CONDUCT OF COACHES
C1. A CODE OF ETHICS FOR COACHES
Schools expect coaches to:
1. Be an integral part of the school system with its educational contribution.
2. Remember that wherever students of the Council play interschool sports, all school rules and
expectations apply.
3. Insist that students keep their attendance and learning as a high priority.
4. Enforce all rules of eligibility.
Athletes expect coaches to:
1. Maintain a genuine and up-to-date knowledge of what they propose to teach.
2. Maintain fair, unprejudiced relationships with all team members.
3. Pay careful attention to the physical condition of players.
4. Inspire a love of the game and a desire to compete fairly.
Sportsmanship demands coaches to:
1. Take a strong stand against profanity, unfair play and unsportsmanlike behaviour of their teams.
2. Maintain self-control at all times, accepting decisions of officials without outward appearance of
anger.
3. Teach athletes to win fairly and to lose graciously.
4. Believe in the honesty and integrity of opponents and officials.
5. Teach that to win is desirable, but to win at any costs, without integrity, fairness and respect defeats
the purpose of the game.
