Rzone Policy

Respect and responsibility, you need them if you want to use our facilities.

That’s what the Rzone is all about, maintaining an environment of respect for others, and responsibility for yourself. It’s not just for players, it’s for spectators, for staff, for referees and coaches, it’s for anyone who wants to enter City facilities or properties.

The Rzone policy applies to all, it’s a zero-tolerance approach to inappropriate behaviour and violence, including, but not limited to:

  • Verbal assault
  • Threats and intimidation
  • Violence
  • Theft
  • Alcohol and drug use
  • Racism / hate speech
  • Harassment
  • Vandalism

A compassionate city is one where any individual can feel safe and respected wherever they choose to play. That’s why the Rzone policy applies to all attendees and staff of City programs, recreational facilities and recreational properties. Respect and responsibility falls on everyone, we all have a role to play in maintaining a safe and welcoming environment in which to compete, play and grow.

It’s easy to be a leader, respect others and take responsibility for yourself. Set a good example, and encourage others to do the same.

If you've witnessed violence, harassment or any other inappropriate behaviour at a City facility please make a report online.
