Feedback - How serious are these behaviours?

Statement group 1: 

• A coach shouts at the team once for a poor performance
• A coach shouts at the team after every competition
• A coach shouts only at one particulart team member in front of the others after every competition and uses discriminatory language  

Feedback: A team being shouted at once might not seem serious, but it is still poor practice. What could happen if it continues over time, and you do not respond to this behaviour?

Statement group 2:

• The team manager ignores local health and safety guidance once
• The team manager regularly ignores healthy and safety guidance and tells others that is is for 'wimps'
• The team manager deliberately makes children take part in unsafe weather conditions with poor facilities to prove his point

Feedback: You might believe you do not need to respond to a team manager ignoring local health and safety issues on one occasion. But what are the consequences if a player or an athlete was injured the one time the guidance was ignored?

Statement group 3:

• A child player or athlete meets a coach after training on their own
• The coach sets up regular meetings with the child and tells them not to speak to anyone about it
• The coach tells the childe if they want to stay in the club, they must do everything the coach tells them to

Feedback: If poor practice is not responded to it can become accepted as normal practice. This increases the risk of creating an environment where harm and abuse might occur. Organisations that have a culture where no unacceptable or inappropriate behaviour is tolerated, are more likely to be safer environments.
