The following code of conduct is in effect throughout the year.  Some of the rules and guidelines refer to swimmers traveling to out of town meets.  Each swimmer by signing this Code of Conduct agrees to abide by the rules set forth and if the swimmer fails to do so, he or she will be subject to disciplinary action as deemed appropriate by the coaching staff.

1. Every New Albany Aquatics Club (hereinafter “NAAC”) swimmer will be respectful of their peers, coaches, and parents.  Any swimmer not acting in such a manner will be asked to change or stop that behavior and if failing to do so, will be subject to disciplinary action.

2. The coaching staff holds the final word on any rules, regulations, or disciplinary action.

3. The consumption or purchase of alcohol, smoking or chewing tobacco, or use of any other illegal substance of any kind will not be allowed.  In addition, any team member found or suspected to be in the presence of others (regardless of team affiliation) partaking in any of the above activities will be subject to the same punishments and probable expulsion from NAAC.

4. While attending out of town meets, at no times will male and female athletes be in the same room together unless a coach or chaperone is in the room or has approved the situation.  This applies to NAAC team members or members of any other team.

5. No loud or boisterous behavior will be tolerated in the hallways or public areas of any hotel, and such behavior should be kept to a minimum in your rooms.
