Hayward Curling Club is committed to providing an environment free of unlawful harassment (including behavior of a verbal, physical, or sexual nature). The Club expects all members to be bound by the by-laws and rules of the Club. The Spirit of curling demands good sportsmanship and honorable conduct. This Spirit should influence the conduct of all participants on and off the ice. I will play the game with a spirit of good sportsmanship. I will conduct myself in an honorable manner both on and off the ice. I will never knowingly break a rule, but if I do, I will divulge the breach. I will take no action that could be interpreted as an attempt to intimidate or demean my opponents, teammates or officials. I will interpret the rules in an impartial manner, always keeping in mind that the purpose of the rules is to ensure that the game is played in an orderly and fair manner. I will humbly accept any penalty that the governing body at any level of curling deems appropriate, if I am found in violation of the Code of Conduct or rules of the game.
