Welcome to the NCAA's sportsmanship and ethical conduct Web page. The Committee on Sportsmanship and Ethical Conduct has attempted to bring together a variety of resources that will allow administrators, student-athletes, coaches or support groups to engage others in the development of a positive sporting environment for intercollegiate athletics. It is not by accident that sportsmanship has become such a defining value in intercollegiate athletics. The NCAA was founded in an attempt to address unsportsmanlike acts that were costing the loss of student-athlete lives. Today, values such as respect, caring, fairness, civility, honesty, integrity, and responsibility are the focus for the committee.
Contained within this section of the Web site are:
- Information on the Sportsmanship and Ethical Conduct Committee and its charge
- Past videos, posters and other educational resources.
- Past sportsmanship presentations clips.
- A sportsmanship toolkit that brings to the administrator's touch valuable resources and suggestions.
- A feedback section that enables visitors to provide the committee with witnessed accounts of positive or negative sportsmanship acts.
Sportsmanship Online Tool Kit
The Sportsmanship and Ethical Conduct Committee has developed an online "tool kit" that contains links to resources and materials that institutions and conference offices can use to assist in the promotion and development of on-campus sportsmanship initiatives.
