Monroe Lacrosse Association
Parent’s Code of Conduct
2010 Season
As a parent of a Monroe Lacrosse Association player, I agree to:
1. Emphasize fun: I will promote the playing of lacrosse as a positive and fun
experience for my child.
2. Not pressure my child to participate: I will help my child develop internal
motivation and love of the game. I will not pressure my child into participating.
3. Encourage learning and development: I will strive to educate my child
and myself regarding the game of lacrosse so my child can get the best exposure to the sport.
4. Emphasize fair play by the rules: I will always insist that my child plays fairly
and by the rules.
5. Encourage the achievement of team goals: I will strive to help my child develop an appreciation for team contributions and the importance of reaching the goals and objectives, which have been defined for the team.
6. Let the coach control the game: I will refrain from yelling instructions to my child
from the sidelines or giving my child instructions counter to those of the coaches.
7. Express only positive comments and attitude: I will be a positive role model for my
child. I will show emotional maturity by controlling my anger and never using obscene
language or gestures. I will show a positive attitude toward the game and all of its participants.
I will not argue or yell about a referee’s call. I will show a positive attitude towards coaches, officials, the game, its rules and regulations and all of its participants. I will respect the importance and contributions of the volunteer coaches.
8. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: I will treat everyone fairly, with dignity and respect.
I will set high standards for my child to follow and expect that he or she adhere to the same standards.
9. Good Neighbor policy: I will treat Players, Parents and Fans of visiting teams
with respect and decency at all times. When visiting other towns I will represent myself,
my child’s team and the Town of Monroe with the understanding that I am an
ambassador for our community. My words and actions will speak well for all concerned.
I have read and understood the above Code of Conduct and agree to follow its
guidelines in all league activities. I understand that if I fail to follow this
Code of Conduct, I may be asked to leave the league activity(such as a game or practice)
or I may be asked to withdraw my child from the league.
