Parent/Spectator Code of Conduct Policy
Parent/Spectator Code of Conduct Policy
Our organization is dedicated to promoting Fair Play and Respect for all participants. In order to achieve this goal, we have developed a unique Parent/Spectator Code of Conduct Policy that all parents must read, understand, and abide by throughout the year. By doing so, we hope to create a positive and safe environment for all participants.
