COMMITMENT
Participation in any competitive sport or activity such as hockey, requires considerable commitment (both in terms of time and money), dedication and sometimes sacrifice on the part of not only the volunteer coaches and players, but also their families. To meet the needs of a team, a participant’s (coach’s and player’s) family may be asked to work around vacation time and other activities. Difficulties with commitment and dedication are accentuated when a participant is involved in more than one competitive sport or activity. The Association respects the varying needs of families. In return for their commitment and dedication, the volunteers expect a corresponding level of commitment and dedication from the players, especially at crucial points in the season.
