I will teach my child that doing one’s best is as important as winning, so that my child will never feel defeated by the outcome of a game. I will never force my child to participate in sports. I will remember that the game is for the youth and that my child plays sports for his or her enjoyment, not for mine. I will insist that my child play in a safe and healthy environment. I will teach my child to play by the rules and to resolve conflicts without resorting to hostility or violence. I will do my very best to make baseball fun for my child. I will make my child feel like a winner every time by offering praise for competing fairly and trying hard. I will never ridicule or yell at my child for making a mistake or losing a competition. I will encourage good sportsmanship by demonstrating positive support for all players, coaches, and umpires at every game, practice, or other Three Village Baseball events. I will remember that children learn best by example. I will set a positive example by applauding good plays/performances by both my child’s team and their opponent. I will support the volunteer coaches, and umpires working with my child, in order to encourage a positive and enjoyable experience for all. I will not question the official’s judgment or honesty in public. I will respect the volunteerism of our league’s coaches, referees, and administration. I will acknowledge, through my respectful behavior, the commitment to my child that these people make by choosing to volunteer their time. I will treat my child’s coach as I would his/her teacher and support their efforts to help my child develop as a player. I will demand a sport’s environment for my child that is free of drugs, tobacco, and alcohol and will refrain from their use at all Three Village Baseball events. I will support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from my child’s sporting activities. I will ask my child to treat other players, coaches, fans, and umpires with respect regardless of race, sex, creed, or ability. I promise to help my child enjoy baseball by doing whatever I can, such as being a respectful fan, assisting with coaching, or providing transportation. I will be involved and set a respectful example by ensuring my child’s attendance at practice and games on time. Failure to follow these guidelines will subject the parent/child to sanctions deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of Three Village Baseball & Softball League _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Parent’s signature:
