How to write a Misconduct Report
1.  Use the current COYSA Misconduct Report Form
2.  Complete all of the sections
3.  The core of the report is the written section, so remember why you are sending the report.
4.  Include the following information:
        a.  What happened.
        b.  How and why you stopped play.
        c.  What action you took.
        d.  How the individual being dealt with reacted.
        e.  How anybody else reacted, if notable.
        f.  How the game was restarted.
5.  Remember that the key to clear writing is not writing a lot, just including only what is necessary.
6.  Write the report after you have calmed down, even if it means taking the report home with you to complete.
7.  Submit the report on time and to the correct authority.
8.  Keep a copy for your records.
9.  If you need help, contact Al, our Referee-in-Chief: kelownaref@gmail.com


For most misconducts, disciplinary action consists of suspensions from playing, coaching, officiating or attending games.  For more serious incidents, the Discipline Committee reviews the report of the incident and has the option of conducting a disciplinary hearing.
