A Message from FIBA OceaniaA Message from FIBA OceaniaA Message from FIBA OceaniaA Message from FIBA Oceania

As competitors, we relish a sporting contest and we respect winners. We have every reason to be proud of the achievements of our sportsmen and sportswomen against the best in the world.

The struggle for victory is an essential element of sport. But even more important than winning, especially for young athletes, is the spirit of sporting competition.

Young people enjoy participating in sport - they enjoy learning new skills and playing the game. Winning is important, but it’s not the only reason for playing.

Codes of Behaviour is a sporting initiative committed to the development of young people through sport. It’s about giving young athletes the best possible experience in sport. That means developing sporting skills, promoting fun and enjoyment, encouraging everyone to participate, and highlighting the importance of fair play.

Codes of Behaviour supports educational organisations to ensure that young people have the opportunity to participate in and enjoy junior sport.

All those involved in junior sport: players, coaches, officials, administrators, parents and the media have an important role to play. Individually, and as a group, we provide the environment in which junior sport is played. Our challenge is to encourage all young athletes not only to participate in sport, but also to play by the rules, and ensure that everyone gets a “fair go” in sport.

These Codes of Behaviour have been developed to assist different groups to promote fair play and appropriate behaviour in junior sport. We encourage schools, sporting associations and other groups to endorse and promote these codes. The result will be a better deal in sport for all young athletes.
