Player Code of Conduct

The mission of this Zog Player Code of Conduct (“Code of Conduct”) is to create a guideline for our players and community to follow these core components: Kindness, Respect, Sportsmanship, Fair Play, Honesty, Player Safety, and a Welcoming Environment.

This Code of Conduct is designed to respect and protect the players, teammates, staff, opponents, neighbors, referees, and any community member associated or impacted by our sport and social activities. We look to hold our Zog community to a high standard and by working and/or playing with our organization, you acknowledge and agree to abide by our Player Code of Conduct.

Violations of the Code of Conduct, as determined by Zog staff within their sole and absolute discretion, will result in disciplinary action up to and including suspension -- either temporarily or permanently – without a refund. Zog players who exhibit unruly, dangerous, or inappropriate behavior in violation of our Code of Conduct will be removed from game play and/or event attendance by Zog staff, and any and all further disciplinary action may be taken.
