Coach's Code of Conduct

Coaches at all Indiana State Wrestling Association (ISWA) events are expected to display appropriate behavior and language in regard to athletes, coaches, officials and tournament staff. I realize that failure to do so shall subject me to possible disciplinary actions, including but not limited to ejection, suspension or termination of privileges and rights associated with any and all ISWA activities and events. The ISWA Disciplinary Committee shall have right to impose additional disciplinary action if deemed appropriate. Appeal of disciplinary action shall be pursuant to Article XV of the By-laws of the Indiana State Wrestling Association Inc. I have read and understand the Coach's Code of Conduct and agree to abide by the terms and conditions in this agreement.
