Sideline Behaviour

The level of undesirable sideline behaviour at BBNZ tournaments has, regrettably, increased in recent times.

Examples of such behaviours include inappropriate comments, by spectators, directed at match officials, coaching staff, children, volunteers and tournament/stadium staff, swearing, yelling abuse, racism, athlete confrontation, overly loud and aggressive attitude etc.

We ask that you work with us to support efforts to minimise these behaviours.

Be A Great Supporter.

Let them play.

These are kids. This is a game. Coaches are volunteers. Refs are human. This is not the NBA.

It is compulsory for all players participating in all age grade (under 20鈥檚 and younger) competitions, leagues and tournaments run by BBNZ and its members to wear a protective mouthguard when they are on court and the game is in play
The No Mouthguard, No Play Policy is to be firmly enforced
