Code of Conduct

The Spectator Contract

The Braves Program is focused on being the best, in providing a positive

Sportsmanship Environment for our players. Our program is bigger than any one player,

coach or spectator. As a Brave Spectator, we require the following:

1) Encourage members of both teams.

2) Keep all comments positive.

3) Only players and coaches are allowed on the field, no exceptions.

4) Leave the coaching to the coaches. If you have suggestions or would like to coach

next year’s team please volunteer so you can attend the mandatory coaching clinics,

pass the background check and sign the coaches contract.

5) Criticizing the officials, coaches, opponents or fans will not be tolerated at all. Same

goes for abusive language or cursing. This is youth sports, everyone makes mistakes.

6) Be supportive, creating unnecessary drama or stirring controversy is grounds for

dismissal from the program.

7) Do not beg or suggest calls to the referees.

8) Playing time and positions are at the discretion of the coaches and is determined by

what is best for the player and team. Football is a team sport and every position is of

equal value. Each player will be guaranteed to play in every game if he attends all practices that week.

9) You are responsible for all family members and friends attending the games to watch

your child.

10) No open alcoholic beverages on the fields.

11) Help make this a positive and fun experience for all.

12) Report any violations to head coach or board member. Get involved.

Policy Enforcement

1) Individuals will be given one warning for inappropriate activity.

2) Individuals that continue will be asked to leave the fields and the player will be

removed from the game until the spectator has left.

3) Other sanctions as deemed necessary by the president or board may be enforced,

including permanent ban.
