Parent and Player Code of Ethics The Margate Parks and Recreation Department recognizes that the lessons learned during youth basketball extend far beyond the court. So in order to create a positive, encouraging environment for our players, the Margate Youth Basketball League requests that each parent and player read, sign and return the Parents & Players Code of Ethics.
PARENTS:
I will encourage good sportsmanship by demonstrating positive support for all players, coaches, and officials at every game, practice, or other youth sports event. I will place the emotional and physical well-being of my child ahead of a personal desire to win. I will insist that my child play in a safe and healthy environment. I will support coaches & officials working with my child to encourage a positive and enjoyable experience for all. I will bring my child to all practices; if I miss a practice, I will notify the coach with a reason for the child’s absence. I will demand a sports environment for my child that is free of drugs, tobacco, and alcohol, and will refrain from their use at all youth sports events. I will remember that the game is for youth – not for adult; I will do my best to make youth sports fun for my child. I will ask my child to treat players, coaches, fans, and officials with respect regardless of race, sex, creed or ability. I promise to help my child enjoy the youth sports experience by doing whatever I can, such as being a respectful fan, assisting when needed, or providing transportation. I will require that my child's coach be trained in the responsibilities of being a youth sports coach and that the coach upholds the Coaches' Code of Ethics.
PLAYERS:
I will encourage good sportsmanship from fellow players, coaches, officials and parents at every game and practice by demonstrating good sportsmanship. I will expect to receive a fair and equal amount of playing time. I will do my very best to listen and learn from my coaches; I will not use profanity, nor will I initiate a fight. I will treat my coaches, other players, officials and fans with respect regardless of race, sex, creed or abilities, and I will expect to be treated accordingly. I deserve to have fun during my sports experience and will alert parents or coaches if it stops being fun! I deserve to play in an environment that is free of drugs, tobacco, and alcohol. I will encourage my parents to be involved with my team in some way. *********************************************************************************************
