StinkySocks Hockey – Player Conduct (“No Jerks” Policy)

All players are subject to the player conduct policy, as interpreted by StinkySocks Hockey.

Players are accountable for their own actions regardless of the actions of another individual.
Players are expected to conduct themselves with good sportsmanship. Chippy play, disrespectful
verbal engagement, or contributing to the escalation of an incident, intentional physical contact
with another player and any other disrespectful conduct is strictly prohibited by the “No Jerks” policy.

StinkySocks promotes a clean game, an enjoyable playing environment and any actions that are
contrary to that are considered a violation of the “No Jerks” policy. Any conduct that is considered
to be unbecoming of a StinkySocks Hockey player, in violation of the terms and conditions of purchase,
and/or contrary to the league’s mission will subject the offending player to disciplinary action,
as deemed necessary by the league. Upon any offense, StinkySocks Hockey may, at its discretion,
take disciplinary action against the offending player in the form of a warning or other penalty
up to and including permanent ineligibility to participate in any StinkySocks Hockey games, leagues
and tournaments. Subsequent offenses will result in more stringent disciplinary action varying from
suspension of play, up to and including permanent ineligibility to participate in any StinkySocks
Hockey games, leagues and tournaments.

Zero-Tolerance on Fighting

Any involvement in a fight on or off the ice will result in disqualification from any and all StinkySocks Hockey games and events.

Third Man In Rule

Any player who becomes physically involved with a player of the other team during an altercation
that did not initially involve them is considered to be a “third man in” and is subject to an
automatic two-game suspension. In the event of an incident, players are required to clear out of
the area in order to not further escalate the situation and to put the game staff in a position to handle the incident. This rule also applies to anyone who leaves the bench area during an incident, regardless of whether or not they end up becoming physically involved. Players should understand that even if their own intentions are good, becoming involved in an incident does NOT deescalate the situation. The purpose of this rule is to ensure that any incident comes to a quick close and does not further escalate.

Ineligible Players

• Not entitled to any refunds
• May not be present at the game or event that they are ineligible for in any capacity

All decisions made by StinkySocks Hockey are final.
