CBE Parent Code of Conduct
Parents are extremely important to the development of young athletes. Whether just observing from the stands or volunteering with the team, parents and volunteers must always set a positive example and be a role model both on and off the field.
- I will always remember that children participate to have fun, and that the game is for the players, not adults.
- I will inform the coach of any physical disability or ailment that may affect the safety of my child or the safety of others.
- I will learn the rules of the league.
- I (and any guest that attends with me) will be a positive role model for my child (as well as for other children) and encourage sportsmanship by showing respect and courtesy for all players, coaches, officials, and spectators at every game, practice, or sporting event.
- I (and any guest that attends with me) will not engage in any kind of unsportsmanlike conduct with any official, coach, player, or parent such as booing, taunting, or usage of profane language or gestures.
- I will ensure that my child knows and follows the Players' Code of Conduct.
- I will teach my child to play by the rules and to resolve conflict without resorting to hostility or violence.
- I will instruct my child to treat other players, coaches, officials, and spectators with respect regardless of race, ethnicity, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or mental, physical, or sensory disabilities, or by any other distinguishing characteristic.
- I will praise my child for competing and playing hard and let my child know that doing one’s best is more important than winning.
- I will only give constructive criticism during a private moment, never in front of other parents, players, or officials.
- I will support the coaches and refrain from excessive “sideline coaching” from the stands.
