Included on this page are Codes of Conduct for players, parents and coaches.

Players’ Code of Conduct

  1. Play for the fun of it (and not to please parents and coaches).
  2. Play by the rules.
  3. Cooperate with your coach, teammates and opponents.
  4. Work hard for yourself and your team.
  5. Respect and accept officials’ decisions.
  6. Control your temper.
  7. Be a good sport and treat all players how you’d like to be treated.
  8. Be the best you can be….put 110 % into everything, and never have any regrets.

Parent’s Code of Conduct

  1. Remember, children are involved in organized sports for their enjoyment, not yours.
  2. Allow your child to participate in sports voluntarily.
  3. Remember that children learn best by example.
  4. Encourage your child to always play by the rules.
  5. Accept your child’s mistakes and disappointments with positive reinforcement.
  6. Accept all officials’ decisions and respect their integrity.
  7. Help your child understand that individual skills and achievements are more satisfying when applied to a team situation.
  8. Teach your child that an honest effort and hard work is just as important as a victory.
  9. Yelling at your child can send the wrong message, especially in a gym full of people, think before you speak.

Coaches’ Code of Conduct

  1. The building of sound, fundamental basketball skills and developing a love for the game is the first objective.
  2. Encourage team play.
  3. Every attempt should be made to give players equal playing time
  4. Reinforce good sportsmanship whenever possible.
  5. Show respect for referees, other coaches and players at all times.
  6. As much as possible, be a resource person to your players, helping them to develop their athletic and human potential.
  7. While trying to treat all players as equals, recognize that all children are not the same and respect their individual differences.
