Please be reminded of the following rule:
The Member towns and coachs of each team are responsible for the behavior of the spectators from their town. If the spectators get unruly or abusive during a game, it is up to the discretion of the referee to stop the game and determine who is at fault. If it can be determined whom or what town is at fault, they shall forfeit the game. If it cannot be determined who is at fault or it is unsafe to continue the game, it will be stopped and the Disciplinary Committee will make a decision.
A) The South Shore Conference will establish a discipline committee to investigate and conduct a hearing if appropriate, concerning any major incident involving a spectator or parent. An Officer of the South Shore Conference will chair the Discipline Committee. The discipline committee will be compromised of three members of the Executive Board and two Program Directors on a rotating monthly basis.
A Major Incident shall be defined as, but may not be limited to, the use of obscene or vulgar language, verbal; physical abuse, taunting of players, coaches, officials, and throwing of objects in the viewing area, team benches, or ice surfaces, etc...
Please represent the Town of Hanover in a positive manner, exhibiting good sportsmanship at all times!
