Codes of Conduct for Parents
Coach Bin’s A” Code of Conduct for Parents
Parental support is important; parents are encouraged to become actively involved in their children’s sport activities.
As a parent of a team member, I understand that I am expected to act with honor and dignity at all sporting events and to show self-respect and respect for athletes, coaches, officials, and others involved in sport. I will behave in ways that are consistent with the values found in the code of conduct listed below.
Coach Bin’s “B” Code of Conduct for Parents
Sport is an important part of a young person’s development and education. Our team values the development of good character through sport and the principles espoused in the six moral values: respectfulness, responsibility, caring, honesty, fairness, and good citizenship.
As a parent of a team member, I will act with respect and dignity and will demonstrate self-respect and act respectfully at all times toward everyone involved in sport, including athletes, coaches, other parents, support staff, officials, opponents, volunteers, and spectators.
