· The emphasis on winning should never be placed above the value of good sportsmanship, the concepts of fair play, or the skills of the game.
· Derogatory comments are unacceptable. Use positive reinforcement with players and adults alike. It should be remembered that criticism
once made can never be retracted.
· The safety and welfare of the players are of primary importance.
· Coaches must always be aware of the tremendous influence they have on their players. They are to strive to be positive role models in dealing
with young people, as well as with adults.
· Officials are expected to conduct themselves as professionals and in a manner that demonstrates courtesy and fairness to all parties, while
exercising their authority on the field.

spirit of the game.
Attempts to manipulate rules in an effort to take unfair advantage of an opponent, or to teach deliberate unsportsmanlike conduct, is considered
unacceptable conduct.
