Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board Mission Statement
The Mission of the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board, in
partnership with the family and church, is to provide, in a responsible
manner, a Catholic education which develops spiritual, intellectual,
aesthetic, emotional, social, and physical capabilities of each individual
to live fully today and to meet the challenges of the future, thus
enriching the community.
Introduction
The focus of Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board (DPCDSB) athletics is to create the Catholic conditions
that support the development and well-being of the whole child. It continues to be a system responsibility among
all stakeholders to ensure that character development as referenced in our Catholic virtues remains a primary
focus for all participants.
The committee representing DPCDSB Principals received the DPCDSB Executive Council's approval and support
to move forward with the development of the Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline and support the
inclusion of guiding principles in the Guideline in the local Catholic School Learning Plans (CSLP) and align with
principles of school Pastoral Plans and virtues.
Context
Athletics has become an important and powerful force in the world. Aided by technology, athletes have
achieved unprecedented fame, salaries and pop power. The growth in athletics globally has drawn the attention
of both the Vatican and the United Nations. In 2004 Pope John Paul II established a Vatican Office committed to
developing values in sports. This is recognition of the role sports can play in bringing people together and
developing the human person.
“For the world of sport still has its sound environments and still its generous protagonists who strive to
reclaim the ideal of sport as a real school of humanity, education, and virtue. It also continues to grow in
its popularity and its unique capacity to unite the entire planet around a big event. As Pope Benedict XVI
recalled last fall, sport is a discipline that “when practiced with respect for the rules, can become an
educational instrument and a means of transmitting important human and spiritual values.” (Wednesday
General Audience, 21 September 2005).
Pope Francis stated in 2014:
“Sports have important educational value because they contribute to personal growth, highlight the
harmony of body and spirit, foster social development and promote the values of "solidarity, loyalty and
respect." (Pope Francis 2014)
“I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith.”(2 Timothy 4:7)

DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline 2014
The United Nations established 2005 as an International Year of Sport. It was their belief that sports can be used
as a vehicle to meet their Millennium Development Goals and promote Education.
“Sport and physical education teach essential values and life skills including self-confidence, teamwork,
communication, inclusion, discipline, respect and fair play. Sport and physical education also have
psychological benefits such as reducing depression and improving concentration. Sport, physical
education, play and recreation have a positive impact on child education. Physical education typically
improves a child’s ability to learn, increases concentration, attendance and overall achievement. Young
people learn better when they are having fun and are being active. Within schools, physical education is
an integral component of quality education.” (United Nations: International Year of Sport and Physical
Education 2005: www.un.org/sport2005)
In DPCDSB sports programs have grown exponentially and continue to play an important role in our Catholic
education system. In this light, it is incumbent that we review, assess and develop our praxis, in order to
maximize the benefits of our efforts.
Focus
The DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline is designed to build capacity among system partners
with the following goals;
1. To establish a guideline in which school sports would operate.
2. To clarify alignment with the DPCDSB System Direction and the Catholic Board Learning Plan.
3. Assist in developing the skill set of system partners and stakeholders in creating a culture that aligns to
DPCDSB System Direction and the Catholic Board Learning Plan.
4. To provide clear expectations for all stakeholders to assist administrators, coaches, convenors and
managers in resolving any infractions occurred.
5. To continue to focus on student success in areas such as student engagement and character/virtues
formation opportunities for all students and spectators.
6. To further align the principles referenced in the DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline
with the foundational principles of the Catholic Board Learning Plan, the Catholic School Learning Plan
and Pastoral Plans.
“I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith.”(2 Timothy 4:7)

DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline 2014
The DPCDSB Principles of Athletic Virtues & Ethical Conduct
Purpose:
Athletic virtues and ethical conduct is a core principle within the DPCDSB community. This is
foundational in support of healthy and positive interaction among all participants in athletic
events. It will serve as a frame of reference in all aspects to promote character formation as
found in our Catholic virtues.
Background: The DPCDSB Committee on Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct embarked on an initiative to
increase awareness and commitment to athletic virtues and ethical conduct across the Board.
The committee collected stakeholder feedback that assisted in shaping the first Athletic Virtues
and Ethical Conduct Guideline in 2012.
In response to the Ministry PPM 158, the committee reassembled and revised aspects of the
guideline. The most significant change was in the document’s title to align with a more inclusive
learning environment. The name was changed to the “DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical
Conduct Guideline: A Sense of Celebration”. The title is rooted in Pope Francis’ 2014 comment
on sports in today’s world.
All sports programs in DPCDSB will promote the character/virtues development of participants
in alignment with the:
1.
Ontario Catholic School Graduate Expectations
2.
DPCDSB System Direction
3.
Catholic Board Learning Plan
4.
Catholic School Learning Plan and Pastoral Plan
5.
Catholic Board Equity, Diversity and Inclusive Education Plan
6.
Catholic Board Corporate Plan

Catholic Virtues will be manifested not only in athletic participation but also in the broad spectrum of activities
surrounding all sports programs. It is an expectation that each DPCDSB school:
a) Implement the “DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline: A Sense of
Celebration”, for appropriate conduct in all sports programs consistent with “a Catholic
approach to fair and inclusive play and supportive participation for athletes, coaches,
spectators and the community” (DPCDSB System Direction 2010-2013).
b) Ongoing communication to all stakeholders regarding the expectations outlined in the
DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline.
“I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith.”(2 Timothy 4:7)

The DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline Expectations



The DPCDSB is committed to establishing athletic virtues and developing healthy environments for
competition. DPCDSB continues to lead the way in enhancing the practice of alignment
between what is acceptable in the classroom with what is occurring in all athletic competitions.
DPCDSB will strive to create athletic environments that are consistent with the expectations and
virtues of our Catholic system.
Catholic education through athletics teaches our youth and our communities to conduct themselves
with athletic virtues and respect for opponents within our Catholic context.
In an effort to achieve this goal, DPCDSB has developed and revised this guideline which outlines the
expectations of the various groups and individuals associated with all athletic programs.
“I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith.”(2 Timothy 4:7)

outlined in the Guideline.

The actions of all Coaches must be founded in courageous leadership where the considerable influence
coaches have will be used to teach and enact the high principles of Catholic athletic values. The DPCDSB
has benefited from the high calibre of coaches who have risked losing a contest by removing studentathletes who have demonstrated disrespect for their opponents and/or other forms of inappropriate
conduct. Coaches are to make athletic virtues and respect a core value of their team and pay special
attention to their student-athletes' behaviour. DPCDSB and its coaches are committed to teach

Catholic values and virtues.

Coaches shall acknowledge that they are aware and will comply with the expectations as outlined in the
DPCDSB Athletic Virtues and Ethical Conduct Guideline as well as the DPCSDB Concussion Guideline.


It is understood that the coach is aware of the DPCDSB Physical Education Safety Guidelines, DPCDSB
Contact Sport Guideline and the DPCDSB Concussion Guideline and GAP policy.

statements or actions between opposing players, including swearing, taunting and baiting.”

Officials who are assigned DPCDSB contests will be requested to enforce the rules regarding Athletic
Virtues without tolerance for abuse. The only warning to participants and coaches regarding Athletic
