WACPC Ethics Statement● Coaching ethics means conforming to professional
standards or moral conduct. Cheer and dance
coaches have a tremendous influence on the
education of an athlete. Never place the value of
winning above the value of instilling the highest ideals
of character.
● Coaches should consistently uphold the integrity of
the profession and strive to set an example of the
highest ethical and moral conduct.
● Coaches should have thorough knowledge of the
safety rules.
● Competition administrators & judges shall have the
respect & support of the coach.
WACPC Ethics Statement- cont’d
● Public criticism of competing athletes, teams,
coaches, competition administrators, or judges is
unethical.
● Conduct that incites athletes or spectators against
these personnel is unethical. Constructive criticism or
concerns should be directed to the WACPC Board of
Directors.
● Coaches shall actively use their influence to promote
sportsmanship.
● While it is impossible for competition administrators or
judges to monitor the ethical behavior of athletes,
teams, or coaches, these rules exist on an honor
system.
WACPC Ethics Statement- cont’d
Examples of unethical coaching may be, but are not limited
to:
● Using choreography from a camp, YouTube, or other
video sources in its entirety or in large sections.
● Displaying poor sportsmanship during or after the
competition or awards.
● Using ineligible athletes.
● Failure to show proper respect during the National
Anthem or Pledge of Allegiance.
● Using social media to publicly criticize or
bully individual athletes, entire teams, coaches,
competition administrators, or judges.

Ethics Committee.
