BC Athlete's Code of Conduct

To ensure fair play, mutual respect and sportsmanship which will protect all our members and our reputation, the Canadian Modem Pentathlon Association, British Columbia Section (BCMPA) has developed the following Code of Conduct.  This policy is to be observed by all members.  The policy will be in effect at all events BCMPA members attend.

1.         Any member, displaying unacceptable behaviour which violates the established harassment policies of BCMPA or code of conduct at a competition (i.e. The B.C. Summer Games, JAAP Meets, Clinics, CAMPA Nationals) will be prohibited from finishing the competition, and can be sent home at his/her expense.  Any funding awarded for that event will be rescinded.

Unacceptable behaviour includes:

Those behaviours described in the BCMPA Harassment Policy.

Committing any act which would be considered an offence under Federal, Provincial or Local Laws.

Breaking curfew and/or failure to show for an event.

Cheating or interfering with a fellow competitor's opportunities .
