School Gym Rules

The Goulbourn Basketball Association (GBA) obtains permits from the school boards to use their gym facilities and the future use of school gyms is dependent on proper use of the gyms by all GBA teams. If misuse or damage occurs it could result in the GBA losing the use of the school.

All players, coaches and parents must adhere to the following GBA gym rules:

• No players are allowed in the school facility without their coach and/or assistant coach
• Only GBA registered coaches can provide supervision of players, and must be certified for the appropriate level of play
• No player can leave the gym premises without coaches permission
• No bouncing of basketballs in school hallways
• No street shoes are to be worn in the gym by participants. Boots and overshoes must be removed by everyone, including spectators before entering gyms
• Leave the gym in same condition as when you arrived, and no equipment is to be removed from the gym
• No food or drink is to be taken into the gym
• Respect the school property
• No school equipment may be used without permission from school representative (usually the custodian). Equipment must be returned to its proper storage area after use. This includes things such as basketballs, clocks, tables, chairs etc.
• Groups must assist in set up and clean up, including tables, chairs, clocks, picking up garbage etc
• All areas of the school are off limits except for the gym and the hallways used to get to and from the gym

New for 2008-2009

The use of school gyms is dependent upon teams (players, parents and coaches) exiting the school premises promptly when their allocated time period expires, thus teams must exit the school gyms exactly at the time indicated on our permits.
