I have read and reviewed the Naselle Sports Club code of conduct with my child. I understand the disciplinary procedures in place.
NSC Code of Conduct
1. I will always hustle. Both on and off the field.
2. I will always respect both my parents and my coaches. I will do my best to obey.
3. I will not use profanity, drugs, or alcohol. I understand that I am representing my team and my town and will do my best to set a good example.
4. I will practice good sportsmanship before, during, and after the games, as well as at all practices.
5. I will treat my opposing players, parents, and coaches with respect.
6. I will respect the decisions made by the officials. My behavior will not change their decisions and may reflect poorly on my team, or myself.
7. I will strive to win with Grace and lose with Grace. I understand that some wins may be awesome and some losses may be tough, but I understand that this is just a game.
8. I will never quit. No matter the score, inning, or number of outs. I will continue to try my hardest until the game and/or practice is over.
9. I will work hard even when no one is watching. My work ethic and performance is strongly influenced by the effort I put in at practices, at games, as well as at home.
10. I will never throw equipment in anger. This is unsafe, as well as a display of poor sportsmanship and lack of self-control.
11. I will prioritize the safety of myself and others. I will wear proper equipment and be aware of my surroundings when using sports equipment.
12. I will show up to all of the practices I can; on time, with a positive attitude, ready to work hard.
13. I will practice self-control and help set a positive example and attitude for my team. If I cannot control my emotions, I may be removed from the practice and/or game to sit with an adult guardian.
14. I will support and encourage my teammates. I will always strive to treat my teammates as I would want to be treated.
15. I will respect the facilities that we use for practices and games. I understand that we are granted permission to use these facilities and should leave them better than we found them. I will not damage any facility and I will clean up all my messes.
16. I will remain where I am instructed to be at all times. (In the dugout, on the bench, on the sidelines) I understand that I must obtain permission from my coach before leaving my designated area.
17. I will embrace my role, position, or spot. I understand that my coach is there to help me play to the best of my ability. If I have any questions about trying a new spot, I will save them for after practices.
I will always do my best to follow these rules. My coaches, parents, and I understand that I am not perfect; but repeated violations may impact my standing on the team. Depending on the severity and frequency of my infractions, I may see less playing time, a diminished role, or complete removal from the team.
Naselle Sports Club has a disciplinary policy in place. NSC wants to make each sports season as successful as possible for the coaches, the players and the parents. Strike 1 is a parent/coach/player meeting in person. Strike 2 is a printed set of the NSC code of conduct to be sent home, reviewed with a parent, signed, and brought back to my coach. Strike 3 is a meeting with my parents and sports club board to discuss next steps.
