Verbal
Warnings.
If
the behaviour of young person is considered to have fallen well below the
‘Group Code of Acceptable Behaviour’, a Leader will give him/her a verbal
warning. The offender(s) will be told to stop whatever they are doing and warned
what will happen if they don’t comply.
Yellow
Cards.
If
a verbal warning is ignored, the young person will be issued with a Yellow Card.
The Section Leader will record the name and details of the incident. The
Parent(s) of the Section member may also be contacted. The young person will as
a minimum punishment automatically sit out the next 10 minutes of any activity.
Depending on the incident the punishment may involve a longer time in the ‘sin
bin’ e.g. to the end of a particular game or programme activity. ( More
than 4 Yellow cards in any 30 period will automatically get a Red card )
Red
Cards.
If
the young person commits a second Yellow Card offence, on the same night he will
receive a Red Card. They will not be allowed to take any further part in
that evenings meeting. Parent(s) will be advised of the issue of a Red Card, as
soon as it is practical to do so. Depending on the situation the Section
Leader may send for the parent/guardian to collect their child early
Suspension-
If
a young person receives a Red Card, they will automatically be suspended from
the next two meetings and will not be allowed to attend Camps, or outings held
in the 30 days following the date of the red card offence. In some cases the Section Leader may also
request a letter of apology.
