The Big North Adult Conduct Code
Adults play Adults play a vital role in the development of our student‐athletes. Therefore, we believe that adults should:
– Be positive role models through actions that ensure that student/athletes have the best athletic experience possible.
– Be supportive of the team as a whole.
– Show respect for the opposing players, coaches, spectators, and support groups.
– Be respectful of all official's decisions.
– Be careful not to instruct players before or during games because your instructions may conflict with the coach’s plans or strategies.
– Praise student athletes in their attempts to improve themselves as athletes, students, and people.
– Gain an understanding and appreciation of the rules of the contest.
– Recognize and show appreciation for outstanding play by either team.
– Help our student/athletes learn that success is measured by the development of skills, not necessarily wins and losses.
– Take time to talk with the coaches in an appropriate manner at the proper time and in the proper place.
– Reinforce the school’s drug and alcohol free policies.
– Remember that it is a privilege to attend high school athletic contests.
