COMMISSIONER AND RVA ASSEMBLY The “Regional Volleyball Associations� (RVAs) of USAV are incorporated as legal entities and are each a Member Organization of USAV. The RVAs serve as the grassroots function for USAV and individually and collectively serve as a catalyst for USAV functions. The primary representative of the RVA is the Regional Commissioner, who is elected by the region for a term of office determined by the region, or the executive director, who is appointed by the regional commissioner. The body of commissioners comprises the Regional Volleyball Association Assembly, which is chaired by the RVAA chair. The chair is elected by the Regional Assembly. An Administrative Council shall consist of the (RVAA) chair, the (RVAA) Associate chair and assistant chairs (if appointed) and the zonal chairs, who shall be elected by the RVAs of each zone. The USAV-RVA BOD Representatives shall be non-voting members of the Administrative Council. Within the regional structure, the commissioner is ultimately responsible for the total function of the RVA, with the assistance of the local organization leadership. This structure is usually comprised of volunteers or paid staff, each assigned to a specific task or project. Volunteers from throughout the region are essential for the conduct of regional programs. Generally, these consist of the development of camps, players, coaches and officials. It is accomplished through sanctioned competition, fellowship play, clinics, exhibitions and demonstrations. Communication vehicles such as newsletters, handbooks, websites and technical literature serve to keep regional members informed. An active cadre of volunteers is paramount if the RVA is to achieve total programming. Collectively, the RVAs are entitled to three representatives on the USAV Board of Directors, each director being elected for a four-year term. Current RVA directors are John Hughes (WE, 2018), Mitch Stemm (HO, 2019) and Donna Donaghy (NC, 2020). The regions continue to provide a most comprehensive volleyball program on a year-round basis to all persons, regardless of age, gender or organization affiliation. Persons or organizations wishing to become involved with volleyball locally, or who are otherwise interested in seeking assistance in some aspect of volleyball in their local organization, are urged to contact their local Regional Commissioner.

SECTION IV
the desire by applicant members toward the formation of new or SubRVAs within the existing geographic configuration forming the present corporation. In facilitating the growth of Volleyball, USA Volleyball adopts the following guidelines concerning redistricting of both the geographic and membership of the Volleyball community. B. USA Volleyball further recognizes that each existing Regional Volleyball Association (RVA) has been formed under the laws of the state(s) in geographic areas. Redistricting may occur within a single state, or may affect a number of states and their laws. Not all state laws are identical. Likewise, redistricting will have an impact on Parent RVAs, how they are left to operate, their financial structure, and on how bids are allocated for National Championships. In order to assist the existing RVAs and members toward redistricting in a harmonious manner, the following process and procedure has been approved. Each applicant and RVA should consult counsel of their choice and comply with their own state laws in effectuating a change of existing Regional Volleyball Associations (RVAs). C. Definitions. 1. “Redistricting.” Refers to the process in which an RVA is formed, whether by separating from an existing RVA within one state, or separating from existing RVAs and forming one RVA within a geographical area. 2. “Parent RVA.” Refers to those geographic areas whose physical boundaries are presently recognized by USA Volleyball. 3. “Sub-RVA.” Refers to that separated geographic area of an existing Parent RVA within one state/RVA’s geographic area, whose application has been approved by the RVA, Zone, and the RVA Assembly. SubRVA status shall be computed beginning the date the application is approved by the RVA Assembly, for a minimum of one (1) year or longer, when necessary, until all requirements of an RVA are satisfied, as reflected in the RVA Administrative Manual. Once the requirements are met and the trial period completed, the application shall be submitted by the RVA Assembly to the USAV Board of Directors for final approval as a new Regional Volleyball Association (RVA). 4. “Provincial RVA.” Refers to that separated geographic area of more than one existing Parent state/RVA whose application has been submitted and approved by each impacted Parent RVA, zone, and the RVA Assembly. Provincial RVA status shall be computed beginning the date the application is approved by the RVA Assembly, for a minimum of one (1) year or longer, when necessary, until all requirements of an RVA are satisfied, as reflected in the RVA Administrative Manual. Once the requirements are met, and the trial period completed, the application shall be submitted by the RVA Assembly to the USAV Board of Directors for final approval as anew Regional Volleyball Association (RVA). 5. “Associate RVA.” Refers to that separated geographic area of one or more existing Parent RVA(s) whose application has been rejected by one or more of the existing Parent RVA(s), but whose application is approved by the RVA Zonal Committee after an independent review. An Associate RVA status shall be computed beginning the date the
SECTION IV
application is approved by the RVA Assembly, for a minimum of one (1) year or longer, when necessary, until all requirements of a RVA are satisfied as reflected by the RVA Administrative Manual. Once the requirements are met and the trial period completed, the application shall be submitted by the RVA Assembly to the USAV Board of Directors for final approval as a new RVA. 6. “RVA Zonal Committee.” Refers to the committee chaired by the appropriate Zonal Chair and will be comprised of all Regional Commissioners within a designated USAV geographic Zone where the redistricting proposal is originating. Presently these Zones are: Atlantic (North and South), Border (East and West), Central (East and West), and Pacific (North and South). 7. “Corporation.” Refers to USA Volleyball (USAV), the national organization. 8. “RVA.” Refers to Regional Volleyball Associations: An RVA Member Organization of USA Volleyball. 9. “RVA Assembly” [formerly the Regional Operations Division]: Refers to the collective organization of Regional Volleyball Associations (RVAs).

SECTION IV
prior to the RVA Assembly Annual Meeting. The summary shall include, but not be limited to, any information the Committee deems relevant and helpful toward its consideration of the application. The scope of the review shall also consider steps taken by the Parent RVA to inform and poll its members, the fairness of the procedure used to allow the application full and fair consideration, and any other information the Committee deems appropriate. 4. An applicant whose application for redistricting is rejected by the Parent RVA(s) may submit the same for reconsideration by the RVA Zonal Committee. 5. The RVA Zonal Committee in which the redistricting application is initiated shall meet, review, and make appropriate inquiries regarding the redistricting application or request for reconsideration prior to the RVA Assembly Annual Meeting, and submit a status report or recommendation to the RVA Assembly. The Committee shall make appropriate recommendations regarding the redistricting application or reconsideration motion to the RVA Assembly. The RVA Zonal Committee may elect to (a) support the application and recommend to the RVA Assembly the formation of a Sub or Provincial RVA; (b) reject the application; (c) recommend a formation of an Associate RVA, or (d) direct that further action be taken on the application. 6. If the RVA Zonal Committee believes, by a majority, that the impacted Parent RVA(s) have failed to provide the application a fair investigation, review, hearing or fair assessment in the determination as to whether such redistricting application is favored by the majority of the membership of the impacted RVA(s), the Committee may recommend to the RVA Assembly that the application be submitted as an Associate RVA. Such recommendation may be considered by the RVA Assembly. Alternatively, the RVA Assembly may hold its own poll and determine whether such an action is in the best interest of the RVA(s) and area membership. The cost of such poll shall be assessed against the Parent RVA(s). 7. If the RVA Zonal Committee finds that an application is supported by the impacted Parent RVA(s), the Committee shall recommend that the redistricting be approved by the RVA Assembly. 8. If the RVA Zonal Committee finds insufficient basis for redistricting to occur, the Committee may in writing reject the application. Such rejection shall be final. A copy of this determination letter should be sent to the RVA Assembly Chair. 9. If the RVA Zonal Committee, after full evaluation, finds support for the redistricting, opposite of the Parent RVA(s) recommendation, the Committee may recommend that an Associate RVA be established. 10. If the RVA Zonal Committee believes, by a majority, that the applicant has brought the application in bad faith, or has provided false information or misrepresented facts to the Committee, the Committee may elect to reject the application. If the Committee finds insufficient basis to recommend redistricting, the Committee may in writing recommend rejection of the application. A copy of this determination letter should be sent to the RVA Assembly Chair. 11. If an application is rejected by the RVA Zonal Committee for bad Return to TOC

F. Limitations on Redistricting. 1. No application for redistricting shall be approved by the RVA Zonal Committee or RVA Assembly unless the applicant RVA shall have at least one third (1/3) of the impacted Parent RVA(s) registered members, with no less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the new RVA members registered as adult members and the remainder junior members, provided the Committee may relax such limitation if the Parent RVA(s) support an application. 2. No application for redistricting shall be approved if the impact of such redistricting will reduce an impacted Parent RVA(s) by more than one half of its membership in any existing category, or below a minimum of 250 adult members and 750 junior members. G. Dispute Resolution. The Corporation encourages mutual agreements between Parent RVA(s) and applicant members who seek redistricting consideration. If the Parent RVA(s) are unable to reach mutual agreements with an applicant, any disputes shall be submitted to arbitration before a three-person panel comprised of RVA representatives or an arbitrator agreed to by the parties. Each of the parties agrees that the arbitrator’s decision shall be binding. H. Trial Period. 1. A redistricting application supported by the impacted Parent RVA(s) shall enjoy Sub or Provincial RVA status for a period of one (1) year following approval of the RVA Assembly and the USAV Board of Directors. Supervision of the Sub or Provincial RVA shall be by the Parent RVA(s). 2. A redistricting application approved by the RVA Zonal Committee and not supported by the impacted Parent RVA(s) shall enjoy Associate RVA status for a period of one year following approval of the RVA Assembly and the USAV Board of Directors.

A new RVA shall conduct elections, obtain appropriate non-profit tax status, complete all organization legal requirements and otherwise demonstrate to the RVA Zonal Committee that it has complied with all RVA requirements as reflected in the Corporate Bylaws and RVA Administrative Manual prior to final approval of the RVA Assembly and USAV Board of Directors. I. Redirection of Assets, Liabilities and Responsibilities on Redistricting. 1. At no time shall the impacted Parent RVA(s) be placed in such a posture that they are required to obtain financial loans to meet their operation expenses, or be placed in such financial posture that their credit status is jeopardized. 2. If a redistricting application is made and approved, all Parent RVAs shall provide minimum “start-up” assistance comprised of services, monies or materials to provide the fledging RVA with rulebooks, guidebooks, or funds to begin a new season.

If a Parent RVA is afforded only one bid, then a Sub, Provincial or Associate RVA may be allocated a bid from the at-large bid pool by the championship bid committee, provided the new RVA has been approved. K. Reciprocity Agreements. Each Parent RVA and any Sub, Provincial or Associate RVA shall enter into a reciprocity agreement for the first three (3) years of the new RVA’s existence, allowing teams and player members to continue to participate in tournaments in the Parent RVA(s).

COACHES CODE OF ETHICS AND CONDUCT USA Volleyball has adopted, in its entirety, the United States Olympic Committee’s Coaching Ethics Code, and it is my responsibility to familiarize myself with that document and conduct myself according to its tenets. Failure to understand any of the principles of these documents does not constitute a defense for violation of its rules. The principles outlined in this document are intended to be clarifications or expansions on the USOC document, and are an emphasis on the values of USAV; this document should not be considered to be the full scope of regulations and Ethics Codes required of coaches. Further, where this document supersedes, contradicts or exceeds the scope of the USOC Coaching Ethics Code, I will adhere to the principles and intent of the USAV Code. I recognize that this Code of Ethics goes beyond the scope of the law, and should be treated with the same, or greater, respect and gravity with which I treat the laws and standards of my community. PRINCIPLE I - PROFESSIONAL PRACTICES I pledge to maintain practices that protect the public and advance my profession; I will:
SECTION IV
A. Maintain responsible association with USA Volleyball, its national programs and member organizations. B. Continue personal and professional growth, remaining current on new developments in the field through continuing education. C. Use my knowledge and professional association(s) for the benefit of the people I serve. D. Always strive to be truthful and put colleagues or other professionals in a positive light. E. Avoid discrimination in all of its forms.
PRINCIPLE II - COACH/ATHLETE RELATIONSHIPS I pledge to maintain relationships with athletes on a professional basis; I will: A. Conduct all my relationships from a perspective of dignity and sound educational and scientific foundation to: 1. Direct comments or criticism relative to the performance, not the athlete. 2. Ensure that all activities are suitable for the age, experience and ability of the athletes. 3. Educate athletes as to their responsibilities in contributing to a safe environment, and to do my best to ensure that all facilities and equipment meet safety standards and that they are age/ability appropriate. 4. Consider the athlete’s future health and well being as foremost when making decisions regarding an injured athlete’s ability to continue competing or training, and seek professional medical opinions to serve as a basis for my decisions. 5. Be aware of academic responsibilities; conduct practices and match schedules in a manner so as not to unduly interfere with academic Return to TOC

success. Never encourage, condone, or require any behavior that threatens an athlete’s high school, USA Volleyball, collegiate eligibility or amateur status. 6. Comply with regulations and ethical guidelines for recruiting practices as defined by governing sport organizations. 7. Strive to develop individual and team respect for the ability of opponents. 8. 8Prioritize being present at all practices and competitions and, when unable to, assure knowledgeable and safe supervision. B. Work with and strive to develop every member of the team. C. Show sensitive regard for the moral, social, religious and sexual orientations of others and communities. I will not impose my beliefs on others. D. Recognize the trust placed in, and the unique power of, the coach and athlete relationship. I will not exploit the dependency of athletes and will avoid dual relationships (e.g., business or close personal relationships) which could impair my professional judgment, compromise the integrity of the process and/or take advantage of the relationship for my own gain.
F. Not engage in physical, verbal or emotional harassment, abusive words or actions, or exploitative coercion of current or former athletes. I will report any suspected cases of abuse to the appropriate authorities immediately. G. Recognize that all forms of sexual abuse, assault or harassment with athletes are illegal and unethical, even when an athlete invites or consents to such behavior or involvement. Sexual abuse and harassment are defined as, but not limited to, repeated comments, gestures or physical contacts of a sexual nature. I will report all suspected cases of sexual assault or abuse to law enforcement as required by law.
PRINCIPLE III - CONFIDENTIALITY I will respect the integrity and protect the welfare of all persons with whom I am working and pledge to safeguard information about them that has been learned or obtained during the coaching relationship, including performance reviews, statistics and all personal confidences. Further, I will obtain permission from athletes before sharing videotape recordings or other data of them with anyone excepting the recognized coaching staff; when current or former athletes are referred to in a publication, while teaching or in a public presentation that is not laudatory, their identity will be thoroughly disguised. The only exception to this will be that I will not use these standards of confidentiality to avoid intervention when it is necessary (e.g., when there is evidence of physical or psychological abuse of minors, or legal issues)
149
SECTION IV
E. While serving in a professional capacity or as a role model, avoid any drug, tobacco or alcohol use while in the presence of athletes. I will discourage by way of education any consumption of these substances by minors and will remain at all times within the limits of the law with regard to legal substances. I will avoid illegal ones entirely.
The following was released in 1995 at the USOC Coaching Symposium. It has been adopted by the USOC for all USOC directly supported functions (Olympics, World University Games, Pan American Games, etc.) and will need to be signed by all coaches participating in events or training on-site at any of the U.S. Olympic Training Centers, including USAV events. This has become the defacto national coaching ethics standard. For more information/feedback, contact USOC Coaching, One Olympic Plaza, Colorado Springs, CO 80909.

COACHES ETHICS CODE INTRODUCTION This Ethics Code is intended to provide standards of professional conduct that can be applied by the USOC and its member organizations that choose to adopt them. Whether or not a coach has violated the Ethics Code does not by itself determine whether he or she is legally liable in a court action, whether a contract is enforceable or whether other legal consequences occur. These results are based on legal rather than ethical rules. However, compliance with or violation of the Ethics Code may be admissible as evidence in some legal proceedings, depending on the circumstances. This Code is intended to provide both the general principles and the decision rules to cover most situations encountered by coaches. It has, as its primary goal, the welfare and protection of the individuals and groups with whom coaches work. This Code also provides a common set of values upon which coaches build their professional work. It is the individual responsibility of each coach to aspire to the highest possible standards of conduct. Coaches respect and protect human and civil rights and do not knowingly participate in or condone unfair discriminatory practices.
SECTION IV
GENERAL PRINCIPLES PRINCIPLE A: COMPETENCE Coaches strive to maintain high standards of excellence in their work. They recognize the boundaries of their particular competencies and the limitations of their expertise. They provide only those services and use only those techniques for which they are qualified by education, training or experience. In those areas in which recognized professional standards do not yet exist, coaches exercise careful judgment and take appropriate precautions to protect the welfare of those with whom they work. They maintain knowledge of relevant scientific and professional information related to the services they render and they recognize the need for ongoing education. Coaches make appropriate use of scientific, professional, technical and administrative resources. PRINCIPLE B: INTEGRITY Coaches seek to promote integrity in the practice of coaching. Coaches are honest, fair, and respectful of others. In describing or reporting their qualifications, services, products, or fees, they do not make statements that are false, misleading or deceptive. Coaches strive to be aware of their own belief systems, values, needs and limitations and the effect of these on their work. To the extent feasible, they attempt to clarify for relevant parties the roles they are performing and to function appropriately in accordance with those roles. Coaches avoid improper and potentially harmful dual relationships.

152
PRINCIPLE C: PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY Coaches uphold professional standards of conduct, clarify their professional roles and obligations, accept appropriate responsibility for their behavior and adapt their methods to the needs of different athletes. Coaches consult with, refer to or cooperate with other professionals and institutions to the extent needed to serve the best interest of their athletes or other recipients of their services. Coaches’ moral standards and conduct are personal matters to the same degree as is true for any other person, except when coaches’ conduct may compromise their professional responsibilities or reduce the public’s trust in the coaching profession and coaches. Coaches are concerned about the ethical compliance of their colleagues’ professional conduct. When appropriate, they consult with colleagues in order to prevent or avoid unethical conduct. PRINCIPLE D: RESPECT FOR PARTICIPANTS* AND DIGNITY Coaches respect the fundamental rights, dignity and worth of all participants. Coaches are aware of cultural, individual and role differences, including those due to age, gender, race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, language and socioeconomic status. Coaches try to eliminate the effect on their work of biases based on those factors and they do not knowingly participate in or condone unfair discriminatory practices.
PRINCIPLE E: CONCERN FOR OTHERS’ WELFARE Coaches seek to contribute to the welfare of those with whom they interact professionally. In their professional actions, coaches consider the welfare and rights of their athletes and other participants. When conflicts occur among coaches’ obligations or concerns, they attempt to resolve these conflicts and to perform their roles in a responsible fashion that avoids or minimizes harm. Coaches are sensitive to differences in power between themselves and others and they do not exploit or mislead other people during or after professional relationships. PRINCIPLE F: RESPONSIBLE COACHING Coaches are aware of their professional responsibilities to the community and the society in which they work and live. They apply and make public their knowledge of sport in order to contribute to human welfare. Coaches try to avoid misuse of their work. Coaches comply with the law and encourage the development of law and policies that serve the interest of sport. They are encouraged to contribute a portion of their professional time for little or no personal advantage.

SECTION IV
* = Participants: Those taking part in sport (athletes and their family members, coaches, officials, volunteers, administrators and spectators).
ETHICAL STANDARDS 1.0 GENERAL STANDARDS These General Standards are applicable to the professional activities of all coaches. 1.01 APPLICABILITY OF THE ETHICS CODE While many aspects of personal behavior and private activities seem far removed from official duties of coaching, all coaches should be sensitive to their position as role models for their athletes. Private activities perceived as immoral or illegal can influence the coaching environment and coaches are encouraged to observe the standards of this Ethics Code consistently.
SECTION IV
1.02 BOUNDARIES OF COMPETENCE (a) Coaches provide services only within the boundaries of their competence, based on their education, training, supervised experience or appropriate professional experience. (b) Coaches provide services involving new techniques only after first undertaking appropriate study, training, supervision and/or consultation from persons who are competent in those areas or techniques. (c) In those emerging areas in which generally recognized standards for preparatory training do not yet exist, coaches nevertheless take reasonable steps to ensure the competence of their work and to protect athletes and other participants from harm. 1.03 MAINTAINING EXPERTISE Coaches maintain a reasonable level of awareness of current scientific and professional information in their fields of activity and undertake ongoing efforts to maintain competence in the skills they use. 1.04 BASIS FOR PROFESSIONAL JUDGMENTS Coaches rely on scientifically and professionally derived knowledge when making professional judgments or when engaging in professional endeavors. 1.05 DESCRIBING THE NATURE AND RESULTS OF COACHING SERVICES When coaches provide services to an individual, a group or an organization, they provide, using language that is reasonably understandable to the recipient of those services, appropriate information beforehand about the nature of such services and appropriate information later about results and conclusions. 1.06 RESPECTING OTHERS Coaches respect the rights of others to hold values, attitudes and opinions that differ from their own. 1.07 NONDISCRIMINATION Coaches do not engage in discrimination based on age, gender, race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, language, socioeconomic status or any basis proscribed by law. 1.08 SEXUAL HARASSMENT (a) Coaches do not engage in sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is sexual Return to TOC
154
solicitation, physical advances or verbal or nonverbal conduct that is sexual in nature and that either: (1) is unwelcome, is offensive or creates a hostile environment, and the coach knows or is told this; (2) is sufficiently severe or intense to be abusive to a reasonable per-son in the context. Sexual harassment can consist of a single intense or severe act or of multiple persistent or pervasive acts; (b) Coaches accord sexual-harassment complainants and respondents dignity and respect. Coaches do not participate in denying an athlete the right to participate based upon their having made, or their being the subject of, sexual harassment charges. 1.09 OTHER HARASSMENT Coaches do not engage in behavior that is harassing or demeaning to persons with whom they interact in their work based on factors such as those persons’ age, gender, race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, language or socioeconomic status. 1.10 PERSONAL PROBLEMS AND CONFLICTS
(b) In addition, coaches have an obligation to be alert to signs of, and to obtain assistance for, their personal problems at an early stage, in order to prevent significantly impaired performance. (c) When coaches become aware of personal problems that may interfere with their performing work-related duties adequately, they take appropriate measures, such as obtaining professional consultation or assistance, and determine whether they should limit, suspend or terminate their work-related duties. 1.11 AVOIDING HARM Coaches take reasonable steps to avoid harming their athletes or other participants and to minimize harm where it is foreseeable and unavoidable. 1.12 MISUSE OF COACHES’ INFLUENCE Because coaches’ professional judgments and actions may affect the lives of others, they are alert to guard against personal, financial, social, organizational or political factors that might lead to misuse of their influence. 1.13 MULTIPLE RELATIONSHIPS (a) In many communities and situations, it may not be feasible or reasonable for coaches to avoid social or other nonprofessional contacts with athletes and other participants. Coaches must always be sensitive to the potential harmful effects of other contacts on their work and on those persons with whom they deal. A coach refrains from entering into or promising another personal, professional, financial or other relationship with such persons, 155
SECTION IV
(a) Coaches recognize that their personal problems and conflicts may interfere with their effectiveness. Accordingly, they refrain from undertaking an activity when they know or should know that their personal problems are likely to lead to harm to athletes or other participants to whom they may owe a professional obligation.
if it appears likely that such a relationship reasonably might impair the coach’s objectivity or otherwise interfere with the coach effectively performing his or her functions as a coach, or might harm or exploit the other party. (b) Likewise, whenever feasible, a coach refrains from taking on professional obligations when preexisting relationships would create a risk of such harm. (c) If a coach finds that, due to unforeseen factors, a potentially harmful multiple relationship has arisen, the coach attempts to resolve it with due regard for the best interests of the affected person and maximal compliance with the Ethics Code. 1.14 EXPLOITATIVE RELATIONSHIPS (a) Coaches do not exploit athletes or other participants over whom they have supervisory, evaluative or other authority. (b) Coaches do not engage in sexual/romantic relationships with athletes or other participants over whom the coach has evaluative, direct or indirect authority, because such relationships are likely to impair judgment or be exploitative.
SECTION IV
1.15 CONSULTATIONS AND REFERRALS When indicated and professionally appropriate, coaches cooperate with other professionals in order to serve their athletes or other participants effectively and appropriately. 1.16 DELEGATION TO AND SUPERVISION OF SUBORDINATES (a) Coaches delegate to their employees, supervisors and assistants only those responsibilities that such persons can reasonably be expected to perform competently, on the basis of their education, training or experience, either independently or with the level of supervision being provided. (b) Coaches provide proper training and supervision to their employees or supervisors and take reasonable steps to see that such persons perform services responsibly, competently and ethically. 1.17 FEES AND FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS (a) As early as is feasible in a professional relationship, the coach and the athlete or other participants reach an agreement specifying the compensation and the billing arrangements. (b) Coaches do not exploit recipients of services or players with respect to fees. (c) Coaches’ fee practices are consistent with law. (d) Coaches do not misrepresent their fees. (e) If limitations to services can be anticipated because of limitations in financing, this is discussed with the athlete or other participant as appropriate.

2.0 ADVERTISING AND OTHER PUBLIC STATEMENTS 2.01 DEFINITION OF PUBLIC STATEMENTS Coaches comply with the Ethics Code in public statements relating to their professional services, products or publications. 2.02 STATEMENTS BY OTHERS (a) Coaches who engage others to create or place public statements that promote their professional practice, products or activities retain professional responsibility for such statements. (b) In addition, coaches make reasonable efforts to prevent others whom they do not control (such as employers, publishers, sponsors, organizational clients and representatives of the print or broadcast media) from making deceptive statements concerning the coach or his/her professional activities. (c) If coaches learn of deceptive statements about their work made by others, coaches make reasonable efforts to correct such statements. (d) Coaches do not compensate members of press, radio, television or other communication media in return for publicity in a news item. (e) A paid advertisement relating to the coach’s activities must be identified as such, unless it is already apparent from the context. Coaches do not make public statements that are false, deceptive, misleading, or fraudulent, either because of what they state, convey or suggest or because of what they omit, concerning their work activities or those of persons or organizations with which they are affiliated. As examples (and not in limitation) of this standard, coaches do not make false or deceptive statements concerning: (1) their training, experience, or competence; (2)their academic degrees; (3) their credentials; (4) their institutional or association affiliations; (5) their services; (6) the basis for, or results or degree of success of their services; or (7) their fees. 2.04 MEDIA PRESENTATIONS When coaches provide advice or comment by means of public lectures, demonstrations, radio or television programs, prerecorded tapes, printed articles, mailed material or other media, they take reasonable precautions to ensure that the statements are consistent with this Ethics Code. 2.05 TESTIMONIALS Coaches do not solicit testimonials from current athletes or other participants who, because of their particular circumstances, are vulnerable to undue influence. 157
SECTION IV
2.03 AVOIDANCE OF FALSE OR DECEPTIVE STATEMENTS
2.06 RECRUITING Coaches do not engage, directly or through agents, in uninvited in-person solicitation of business from actual or potential athletes or other participants who, because of their particular circumstances, are vulnerable to undue influence. However, this does not preclude recruiting athletes deemed eligible by appropriate governing bodies. 3.0 TRAINING ATHLETES 3.01 STRUCTURING THE RELATIONSHIP (a) Coaches discuss with athletes as early as is feasible appropriate issues, such as the nature and anticipated course of training, fees and confidentiality. (b) When the coach’s work with athletes will be supervised, the above discussion includes that fact and the name of the supervisor. (c) When the coach is uncertified, the athlete is informed of that fact. (d) Coaches make reasonable efforts to answer athletes’ questions and to avoid apparent misunderstandings about training. Whenever possible, coaches provide oral and/or written information, using language that is reasonably understandable to the athlete.
SECTION IV
3.02 FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS (a) When a coach agrees to provide services to several persons who have a relationship (such as parents and children), the coach attempts to clarify at the outset (1) which of the individuals are athletes; and (2) the relationship the coach will have with each person. This clarification includes the role of the coach and the probable uses of the services provided. (b) As soon as it becomes apparent that the coach may be called on to perform potentially conflicting roles (such as intermediary between parents and children or sibling teammates), the coach attempts to clarify and adjust, or withdraw from roles, appropriately. 3.03 PROVIDING COACHING SERVICES TO THOSE SERVED BY OTHERS In deciding whether to offer or provide services to those already receiving coaching services elsewhere, coaches carefully consider the potential athlete’s welfare. The coach discusses these issues with the athlete or another legally authorized person on behalf of the athlete, in order to minimize the risk of confusion and conflict. 3.04 SEXUAL INTIMACIES WITH CURRENT ATHLETES Coaches do not engage in sexual intimacies with current athletes. 3.05 COACHING FORMER SEXUAL PARTNERS Coaches do not coach athletes with whom they have engaged in sexual intimacies. 3.06 SEXUAL INTIMACIES WITH FORMER ATHLETES (a) Coaches should not engage in sexual intimacies with a former athlete for Return to TOC
158
at least two years after cessation or termination of professional services. (b) Because sexual intimacies with a former athlete are so frequently harmful to the athlete, and because such intimacies undermine public confidence in the coaching profession and thereby deter the public’s use of needed services, coaches do not engage in sexual intimacies with former athletes even after a two-year interval except in the most unusual circumstances. The coach who engages in such activity after the two years following cessation or termination of the coach-athlete relationship bears the burden of demonstrating that there has been no exploitation, in light of all relevant factors, including: (1) the amount of time that has passed since the coach-athlete relationship terminated; (2) the circumstances of termination; (3) the athlete’s personal history; (4) the athlete’s current mental status; (5) the likelihood of adverse impact on the athlete and others; and (6) any statements or actions made by the coach during the course of the athlete-coach relationship suggesting or inviting the possibility of a post-termination sexual or romantic relationship with the athlete or coach. (a) Coaches do not tolerate the use of performance enhancing drugs and support athletes’ efforts to be drug-free. 3.08 ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO (a) Coaches discourage the use of alcohol and tobacco in conjunction with athletic events or victory celebrations at playing sites and forbid use of alcohol by minors. (b) Coaches refrain from tobacco and alcohol use while they are coaching and make every effort to avoid their use while in the presence of their athletes. 3.09 INTERRUPTION OF SERVICES (a) Coaches make reasonable efforts to plan for training in the event that coaching services are interrupted by factors such as the coach’s illness, death, unavailability or relocation or by the client’s relocation or financial limitations. (b) When entering into employment or contractual relationships, coaches provide for orderly and appropriate resolution of responsibility for athlete training in the event that the employment or contractual relationship ends, with paramount consideration given to the welfare of the athlete. 3.10 TERMINATING THE PROFESSIONAL RELATIONSHIP (a) Coaches terminate a professional relationship when it becomes reasonably clear that the athlete no longer needs the service, is not benefiting or is being harmed by continued service. 159
SECTION IV
3.07 DRUG-FREE SPORT
(b) Prior to termination, for whatever reason, except where precluded by the athlete’s conduct, the coach discusses the athlete’s views and needs, provides appropriate pre-termination counseling, suggests alternative service providers as appropriate and takes other reasonable steps to facilitate transfer of responsibility to another provider if the athlete needs one immediately. 4.0 TRAINING SUPERVISION 4.01 DESIGN OF TRAINING PROGRAMS Coaches who are responsible for training programs for other coaches seek to ensure that the programs are competently designed, provide the proper experiences and meet the requirements for certification or other goals for which claims are made by the program. 4.02 DESCRIPTIONS OF TRAINING PROGRAMS (a) Coaches responsible for training programs for other coaches seek to ensure that there is a current and accurate description of the program content, training goals and objectives, and requirements that must be met for satisfactory completion of the program. This information must be readily available to all interested parties.
SECTION IV
(b) Coaches seek to ensure that statements concerning their training programs are accurate and not misleading. 4.03 ACCURACY AND OBJECTIVITY IN COACHING (a) When engaged in coaching, coaches present information accurately and with a reasonable degree of objectivity. (b) When engaged in coaching, coaches recognize the power they hold over athletes and therefore make reasonable efforts to avoid engaging in conduct that is personally demeaning to athletes and other participants. 4.04 ASSESSING ATHLETE PERFORMANCE (a) In coach-athlete relationships, coaches establish an appropriate process for providing feedback to athletes. (b) Coaches evaluate athletes on the basis of their actual performance on relevant and established program requirements. 4.05 HONORING COMMITMENTS Coaches take reasonable measures to honor all commitments they have made to athletes. 5.0 TEAM SELECTION (a) Coaches perform evaluations or team selection only within the context of a defined professional relationship. (b) Coaches’ assessments, recommendations, reports, and evaluative statements used to select team members are based on information and techniques sufficient to provide appropriate substantiation for their findings.

6.0 RESOLVING ETHICAL ISSUES 6.01 FAMILIARITY WITH ETHICS CODE Coaches have an obligation to be familiar with this Ethics Code, other applicable ethics codes, and their application to the coaches’ work. Lack of awareness or misunderstanding of an ethical standard is not itself a defense to a charge of unethical conduct. 6.02 CONFRONTING ETHICAL ISSUES When a coach is uncertain whether a particular situation or course of action would violate the Ethics Code, the coach ordinarily consults with other coaches knowledgeable about ethical issues, with NGB or USOC ethics committees, or with other appropriate authorities in order to choose a proper response. 6.03 CONFLICTS BETWEEN ETHICS AND ORGANIZATIONAL DEMANDS If the demands of an organization with which coaches are affiliated conflict with this Ethics Code, coaches clarify the nature of the conflict, make known their commitment to the Ethics Code, and to the extent feasible, seek to resolve the conflict in a way that permits the fullest adherence to the Ethics Code. 6.04 INFORMAL RESOLUTION OF ETHICAL VIOLATIONS
6.05 REPORTING ETHICAL VIOLATIONS If an apparent ethical violation is not appropriate for informal resolution under Standard 6.04 or is not resolved properly in that fashion, coaches take further action appropriate to the situation, unless such action conflicts with athlete rights in ways that cannot be resolved. Such action might include referral to NGB or USOC committees on professional ethics. 6.06 COOPERATING WITH ETHICS COMMITTEES Coaches cooperate in ethics investigations, proceedings and resulting requirements of the USOC and any NGB to which they belong. Failure to cooperate is itself an ethics violation. 6.07 IMPROPER COMPLAINTS Coaches do not file or encourage the filing of ethics complaints that are frivolous and are intended to harm the respondent rather than to protect the public. 7.0 PROCESS RELATING TO VIOLATION OF CODE 7.01 The coach acknowledges that this Ethics Code is administered under the authority of the NGB or other responsible organization and that a violation of this Code subjects the coach to the processes of the NGB or other such organization required to be provided in the event of disciplinary action. The NGB or other such organization acknowledges that all violations of the Ethics Code will be reviewed for possible disciplinary action and it will provide a written report to the USOC on all reviews and actions. 161
SECTION IV
When coaches believe that there may have been an ethical violation by another coach, they attempt to resolve the issue by bringing it to the attention of that individual if an informal resolution appears appropriate and when intervention does not violate any athlete rights that may be involved.
7.02 In the event that a violation of the Ethics Code occurs during an authorized U.S. Olympic Training Center activity, USOC may, as landlord of the facility, take action separate and independent from that of the NGB or member of the USOC in order to protect its interests and those of athletes, coaches and others at the location. 7.03 Any action taken by an NGB or member of the USOC which affects the opportunity of a coach to participate in “protected� competition as defined in the USOC Constitution shall be entitled to processes assured under the USOC Constitution and the Amateur Sports Act of 1978. This includes process within the NGB, the USOC and the American Arbitration Association. 7.04 If the violation of the Ethics Code occurs while a member of a USOC team or event, the coach and NGB acknowledge that the USOC may institute its own proceeding regarding the violation, which action shall not restrict the ability or obligation of the NGB to take its own separate and independent action. 7.05 In the event that a coach is found to have violated the Ethics Code, such action is separate and apart from any other legal consequences which may occur as a result of the act.
SECTION IV
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This Coaching Code of Ethics is the result of the work of many people and committees. The approach, structure, and contents of this code were inspired by the Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct, December 1992 (American Psychological Association, Vol. 47, No. 12, 1597-1611). Many of the ideas for ethical standards were drawn from numerous other codes. The most significant of these were developed by the Coaching Association of Canada, The British Institute of Sport Coaches, and the NCAA. In particular, the USOC would like to thank the following individuals who were involved with this committee during the 1993-1996 quadrennium: USOC Coaching Committee, Ray Essick, Chair USOC Ethics Oversight Committee, Harry Groves, Chair USOC Games Preparation and Services Committee, Joe Kearney, Chair USOC Training Centers Committee, Mike Jacki, Chair USOC Vice President Michael B.

The Event Arbitrator or the Event Ethics and Eligibility Appeals Committee shall file a report of any age or identity violation with the Corporation’s Ethics and Eligibility Committee and with the registering Affiliate Organization with its recommendation. IV. USAV GENDER COMPETITION GUIDELINES: Transgender athletes must request permission to participate by submitting a request to the Chair of the Gender Committee. Documentation of testosterone levels may be required. Requests should be sent to ChairGenderCom@usav.org. Note: The process does not apply to any competition or event where the International Olympic Committee's policy on transgender may apply, or to a competition or event being used as a qualifier for another competition or event where the IOC's policy on transgender may apply. This may include, without limitation, (i) USA Volleyball National Team qualifiers, competitions or events, and (ii) competitions or events operated or sanctioned by FIVB, the IOC, the International Paralympic Committee or World Para Volley, whether involving beach, indoor or sitting disciplines.
SEC TI ON V
GUIDELINES The vast majority of athletes are expected to compete as a member of the gender noted on their birth certificate. The goal of the USAV policy is to permit athletes to compete in the gender with which they identify, while minimizing any competitive advantage which may accrue. Athletes who wish to compete as a member of the gender opposite that recorded on their birth certificate must duly notify USAV of their intent, and provide appropriate medical documentation of their status to the USAV Gender committee (GC) at least six weeks prior to the competition in which they wish to participate. Sufficient documentation must be provided to permit the GC to determine that the applicant has taken the necessary steps to transition to their adopted gender. At a minimum, this should include medical records documenting the athlete's intended sexual reassignment (including physicians' and psychotherapists' statements, record of hormonal therapy, and the response to such therapy). The GC reserves the right to consult and share relevant information with medical experts, as deemed necessary. Hormone therapy is a critical component of sex reassignment, but treatment with sex hormones may potentially provide transsexual athletes with an unfair competitive advantage. For this reason, the USAV GC requires that transsexual athletes provide documentation of appropriately managed therapy at the time of initial application to compete. If the athlete is approved to compete as a member of their adopted gender, periodic submission of test results documenting hormonal levels in response to ongoing treatment may be required by the GC. The GC will therefore be responsible for tracking transgender athletes once registered, in addition to serving as the point of contact for all inquiries regarding these participants. The expense of any required testing will be the responsibility of the athlete. Current transsexual testing requirements are as follows: Female to Male, All Age Groups (Prepubertal, Pubertal, and Adult): Return to TOC
172
All athletes must submit appropriate documentation upon request. Testosterone levels must not exceed the upper limit of the normal male reference range for their age group. Male to Female: All athletes must submit appropriate documentation upon request. Testosterone levels must not exceed the upper limit of the normal female reference range for their age group. Age 12 and Under (Prepubertal or Youth) No restriction if seeking to play on a female team. Age 13-18 (Registered as a Junior, Including a 19-year-old Still in High School) (Prepubertal or Adolescent) Testosterone levels must be within normal female references range (for the age range) for a minimum of six months preceding the application to participate. Age 18 and Over (Registered as an Adult) Testosterone levels must fall within normal adult female reference range for a minimum of one year prior to the application to participate. V.
