Children's Point System

Junior and Cadet Members

Discipline and rules are important and must be followed for the sake of everyone’s safety both in and out of the club. It is for this reason we have put a points system in place to reward and to discipline our Ninja / Samurai, Junior and Cadet members aged less than 16 years old. Points can be awarded by any fully qualified or assistant Voodoo Coach. There are two types of points; ‘Merit’ and ‘Penalty’ points, positive and negative respectively.

Merit points are awarded for any positive behaviour such as; putting in special effort, outstanding achievements and being kind or helpful to others. In these cases; the amount of merit points accumulated is added towards the hours of training required before the student is invited to grade. Therefore, this will result in an early grading opportunity.

Penalty points are awarded for negative behaviour such as; not following rules, not having the appropriate clothing (Gi’s etc.) or training equipment (boxing gloves etc.), making no effort, being disrespectful to others or dangerous behaviour. In these cases; for each penalty point accumulated an additional hour of training will be required as well as their behaviour modified appropriately before the student is invited to grade. Therefore, this will result in a delayed grading opportunity.

A Penalty point can be cancelled out be a student later gaining a Merit point.

Any points awarded will be recorded on the students training record and parent/s informed.

A student’s points records are restarted at zero as a grading takes place.

If a child is sat out of class for misbehaviour, this will result in an immediate Penalty point being awarded. If they are invited to re-join the class and are sat out a second time, a second Penalty point will be awarded, and they will not be allowed back in that class for that day.

On accumulating 10 penalty points before their next grading a student may have their membership of Voodoo Recharge revoked and all grades and promotions gained will be removed from our records.

For the safety of all our members, this system can be circumvented at any time by our coaches. In the case of a serious offence such as bullying inside or outside the club, or wilfully refusing to act upon instruction from Voodoo coach/es that results in a risk to others, a student will be asked to leave immediately, and parents informed.
