During the course of all PMHA activities and events, members shall avoid behaviour, which may bring PMHA or the sport of hockey into disrepute, including but not limited to abusive use of alcohol or drugs.

PMHA members and participants shall at all times adhere to PMHA’s operational policies and procedures, to rules and regulations governing PMHA events and activities, and to rules and regulations governing any competitions in which the member participates on behalf of PMHA.

Members and participants of PMHA shall not engage in any activity or behaviour which interferes with a competition or with any player or team's preparation for a competition, or which endangers the safety of others.

Members of PMHA shall refrain from comments or behaviours, which are disrespectful, offensive, abusive, racist or sexist. In particular, behaviour, which constitutes harassment or abuse will not be tolerated and will be dealt with under PMHA's Harassment Policy.

Failure to comply with this Code of Conduct may result in disciplinary action in accordance with the Discipline Policy of PMHA.
