Cougar Volleyball guarantees a safe and fair training environment where all coaches will treat athletes with respect. The expectation is that athletes treat each other, and all coaches, with respect as well.
Unless explicitly stated, play time will not be equal. Cougar Volleyball is a competitive club program and athletes will be awarded with more play time if they demonstrate competency in the following areas (in no particular order):
Athleticism
Ball Control
Positional Skill
Positive Attitude
Desire to Learn
Leadership
Attendance at Training
Commitment to the Team
Play time will not be decided by factors such as unsubstantiated favoritism or relationship with the coach.
If any athlete or parent has a complaint with their coach, please address it in the following manner:
1) WAIT at least 24-48 hours before any action.
2) Respectfully bring the issue forward with the coach, either in person or via email. Discuss and look to find a solution that works for both parties.
3) If conflict persists, send an email to admin@bridgeathletics.ca with the nature of the concern and the administrative team at Cougars Volleyball will look to mediate the conflict.
