ALL PYH PARENTS
 

Please adhere to the fire lane parking restrictions in front of Armstrong.  Rink management has installed no parking signs.  Do not park within the signed area.

The fire lanes must be kept open for emergency personal.

This past weekend alone emergency personal was needed at the rink on two separate occasions for injuries to children.  This is a very serious matter.  VIOLATORS ARE SUBJECT TO BEING TOWED.

Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.

Please address all questions about this policy to TJ Swiderski, the rink manager.

Parents,

Please keep in mind that your players must attend the practices, powerskates and skill sessions assigned to their respective teams. They should not be "doubling" up and skating extra sessions. In addition, siblings should not be skating with other teams on a regular basis. It is understandable in extreme situations, but the ice is evenly distributed to all players and the schedule must be adhered to.

With regards to changes in skill sessions, PYH is working with the Cape Cod Blue Fins to put together a program that is most beneficial to all players. It is a work in progress. But the goal is to help advance the players at all skill levels. Please be patient. Having a professional team working and advising us is a unique opportunity.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns,

Thank you for your cooperation,

Gary Gates

PYH Vice-President, Coaching Coordinator

The member towns and coach 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 a 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.

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 comprised 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 surface, etc.

When a major incident on ice rink property used by the South Shore Conference involving a parent or spectator is brought to the attention of the South Shore Conference Executive Board by rink officials, ice officials (referee or time keepers), incident reports or other programs, the affected programs will be notified by the South Shore Conference President or designee.

The program(s) will then have 48 hours to respond with a recommendation for discipline to the chairperson of the Discipline Committee. The program will identify everyone involved. If the program’s action is deemed acceptable, no further action shall be taken. If the chairperson of the Discipline Committee deems the program’s recommendation unacceptable and/or inadequate, the individuals involved will immediately be suspended from all South Shore Conference activities until the incident is resolved. The Discipline Committee shall convene to investigate the incident and to hold a hearing within one week. All parties involved in the major incident shall attend the discipline hearing.
