Fundamental to this principal is the basic assumption that each person has value and is worthy of respect. Responsible Coaching The principal of responsible coaching carries the basic ethical expectation that the activities of coaches will benefit society in general and participants in particular and will do no harm. Fundamental to the implementation of this principal is the notion of competence- responsible coaching (maximizing benefits and minimizing risks to participants) is performed by coaches who are "well prepared and current:' in their discipline. Integrity in Relationships Integrity means that coaches are expected to be honest, sincere and honorable in their relationships with others. Acting on these values is most possible when coaches posses a high degree of self- awareness and ability to reflect critically on how their perspectives influence their interactions with others. Honoring Sport The principal of honoring sport challenges coaches to recognize, act on and provide value of sport for individuals and teams and for society in general.
