HARASSMENT
AND ABUSE POLICY
“All
sanctioned Swim Manitoba or SNC meets under the jurisdiction of
the Provincial Section shall be governed by the Swim/Natation
Manitoba Harassment and Abuse Policy. A recommendation coming
from the Harassment and Abuse Committee states that the deck be
reserved for swimmers, coaches and volunteers assigned specific
tasks in the running of the meet. The referee and meet
management will have the full authority to request that any
individual, who is perceived to be interfering with the peace
and security required for any athlete to achieve his/her best
potential, is to leave the deck, or indeed the spectator area
should their conduct be viewed as having a negative impact on
any athlete in the competition.”
