"The use of social media sites and electronic media including but not limited to Facebook, InstaGram, WhatsApp, Google, Twitter, etc.

BCMCL website and email are all forms of public domain communication. As such, users are fully responsible and liable for anything they say or represent on these sites.

The proliferation of information spreads very quickly through status updates, linked in friend communities and so on. As such, BCMCL members have an important responsibility to not say or communicate anything untoward with respect to all the BCMCL (officials, players, clubs, umpires and committees) and its members or anyone associated with the conduct of playing of cricket within our league and community (BCMCL, Cricket BC and Cricket Canada). This includes racist or vilifying comments, bad language, insulting comments, religious connotations or positioning, personal attacks or slander, personal comments relating to family or associated friends within the cricket community. This behavior not only reflects badly on you as a member but brings the entire league into disrepute. It is not a tool to criticize behind a keyboard.

The BCMCL will take very seriously any reported or discovered incidents relating to social and electronic media communication and will impose strict penalties on any member found guilty by the league with respect to abuse and /or misuse of this form of communication in the public domain.
