HTML format |
Purpose of the Program:
To remind us that the game is for the kids, that respect
for others is a lesson we can help teach, and that setting a good example is more
important than winning.
The S.A.G.E. 4-point program:
| 1) |
Parents, Coaches, and Players sign Sportsmanship Pledge
forms spelling out appropriate conduct and the reasons why good sportsmanship is so
important. Parents and Player(s) from one family can all sign the same form. |
| 2) |
Coaches must attend their mandatory
preseason meeting that is used in part to reinforce SAGE. |
| 3) |
The Club
will take action on poor sportsmanship. The signing by the Governor of
the
Athletic Code of Conduct Bill specifically allows the Club to ban
offenders from future athletic contests until they successfully complete
anger management training. Further, if the incident includes criminal
behavior, the penalties can include time in jail and significant fines. |
| 4) |
Coaches are to continually promote good sportsmanship
Before, During, and After the game. |
KEEP THE FUN IN THE GAME
