DISCLAIMER: As the PRC is not a paid membership based conference and we are not associated with any governing boards, we do not have any official protocols for dealing with athlete injuries.

It is assumed that each individual in attendance of a PRC event has covered themselves with the proper insurance either privately or through a school provided program. While it is recommended that host schools provide basic first aid, it is the responsibility of the injured individual, and not the host school, to cover any costs (and assume 100% responsibility) related to any and all injuries. The PRC exists solely as a way for international schools in the Pearl River Delta to have an easy way to exchange information related to athletic program development and schedule friendlies, exchanges, and tournaments with other schools. The PRC, its Member Schools, and the Executive Committee are not responsible for any injuries or other medical emergencies happening to individuals attending PRC events.

10 APPENDIX 2 TOURNAMENT FORMATS These are recommended formats for PRC-HS Tournaments. Alterations may need to be made due to facilities, number of teams competing or other factors at the discretion of the Tournament Director and with approval of the PRC-HS Executive Committee. Three Teams: Double round-robin, with no playoff games. Four Teams: Full round-robin, with a championship game and third-place playoff. Five Teams: Full round-robin, with a championship game and third-place playoff if time permits. Six Teams: Two pools of three (A and B), with all teams qualifying for the knockout rounds. The top team in each pool (A1 and B1) will receive a bye to the semi-final. The second and third placed teams will play each other in quarterfinals in the format below: Seven Teams: A pool of four and a pool of three, with crossover semifinals (A1 vs. B2, B1 vs. A2). The winners of those games play the championship game, the losers play for third place. The third placed teams in each pool play for fifth place, while the fourth placed team in the pool of four takes seventh place. Eight Teams: Two pools of four, with crossover semifinals (A1 vs. B2, B1 vs. A2). The winners of those games play the championship game, the losers play for third place. The third placed teams in each pool play for fifth place, and the fourth placed teams play for seventh place. Nine or more teams: In this scenario, shortening games will be appropriate. In soccer and basketball, this means shortening overall game time. In volleyball, sets can be reduced to 15 points. Tournament Directors should endeavor to keep pool play and playoff games, but can use their discretion to adapt the tournament to the situation. More than one team per school should not be allowed where this would lead to more than eight teams being involved in the competition 10

13 APPENDIX 5 PLAYERS: CODE OF BEHAVIOR Play by the rules. Never argue with an official. If you disagree, have your captain or coach approach the official during a break or after the competition. Control your temper. Verbal abuse of officials, other players or spectators is never acceptable. Deliberately distracting or provoking an opponent is not tolerable or permitted behaviors in any sport. Work equally hard for yourself and/or your team. Your team s performance will benefit and so will you. Be a good sport. Applaud all good plays whether they are made by your team or the opposition. Treat all participants in your sport as you like to be treated. Do not bully or take unfair advantage of another competitor. Cooperate with your coach, teammates and opponents. Without them there would be no competition. Participate for your own enjoyment and benefit, not just to please parents, friends or coaches. Respect the rights, dignity and worth of all participants regardless of their gender, ability, cultural background or religion. 13

14 APPENDIX 6 COACHES: CODE OF BEHAVIOR Remember that young people participate for pleasure and that winning is only part of the fun. Never ridicule or berate a young player for making a mistake or not coming first. Be reasonable in your demands on players time, energy and enthusiasm. Operate within the rules and spirit of your sport and teach your players to do the same. Ensure that the time players spend with you is a positive experience. All young people are deserving of equal attention and opportunities. Avoid overplaying the talented players. The average players need and deserve equal time. Ensure that equipment and facilities meet safety standards and are appropriate to the age and ability of all the players. Display control, respect and professionalism to all involved with the sport. This includes opponents, coaches, officials, administrators, the media, parents and spectators. Encourage your players to do the same. Show concern and caution toward sick and injured players. Follow the advice of a physician when determining whether an injured player is ready to recommence training or competition. Obtain appropriate qualifications and keep up to date with the latest coaching practices and the principles of growth and development of young people. Any physical contact with a young person should be appropriate to the situation and necessary for the player s skill development. Respect the rights, dignity and worth of every young person regardless of their gender, ability, cultural background or religion. 14

15 APPENDIX 7 PARENTS: CODE OF BEHAVIOR Remember that your children participate in sport for their enjoyment, not yours. Encourage your children to participate, do not force them. Focus on the child s efforts and performance rather than on the winning and losing. Encourage children always to play according to the rules and to settle disagreements without resorting to hostility or violence. Never ridicule or yell at a child for making a mistake or losing a competition. Remember that children learn best by example. Appreciate good performances and skillful plays by all participants. Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from sporting activities. Respect officials decisions and teach children to do likewise. Show appreciation for volunteer coaches, officials and administrators. Without them, your child might not have the opportunity to participate. Respect the rights, dignity and worth of every young person regardless of their gender, ability, cultural background or religion. 15
