THE ROLE & RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PARENT The support of the parent(s) is essential to the success of any youth program. This support should be in such activities as fund raising, promotions, equipment maintenance, team sponsorship, and other volunteer activities. 1. Remember, a positive mental attitude, free from parental pressures, is an important ingredient for the success of any youngster participating in the program. 2. Refrain from open criticisms, especially in the presence of your child(ren), of the program, coaches, or any personnel connected with the organization. 3. Encourage your youngster to attend all practice sessions. His/her absence not only impedes their progress but hurts their team as well. Missing a practice is a prime cause for not playing in a game and can lead to suspension from the team for repeated occurrences. 4. Parents should never be on the practice field nor interrupt a coach during a practice session. Any questions and/or concerns should be addressed with coaching staff prior to bringing an issue to the BXFF board members. 5. Youth football is a different dimension than professional ball. Cheer hard and loud for your team at the games, but remember to keep your fan support in the proper perspective and in good taste. 6. Unsportsmanlike conduct in the stands during games is prohibited. Derogatory statements towards game officials, fans or the opposing team are prohibited and may result in the forfeiture of a game. ALCOHOL at games in PROHIBITED. 7. Parents are not allowed on the sidelines or playing field. All spectators belong in the stands or behind the ropes. Only players, coaches, and appointed league officials may be on the sidelines. 8. Parents should clearly understand that the aim of BXFF is to teach their youngster teamwork, good sportsmanship, fair play, and a love for the wonderful game of football. 9. Parents must assume complete financial responsibility for their child to participate in this program. 10. We are not a babysitting service. We cannot be held responsible for the health and welfare of unattended children. Parents are responsible in picking up their child(ren) in a timely manner from practice and/or game sites. PLAYER’S CODE OF CONDUCT Being a member of the team means much more than just learning about and playing football. As a player, both on and off the field, you are a representative of your team, and expected to act accordingly. No matter what the circumstances, whether it is in victory or defeat, always conduct yourself with pride and poise. 1. Good school grades are a must! Parents that report a drop in the player’s school grades may request a coach to “bench” a player until grades are brought up to a satisfactory level. 2. Good citizenship is a must! Any player, who has behavioral issues with the law enforcement and/or league officials, SHALL be subject to suspension from the team. 3. You must notify your coach if you are going to miss a practice. 4. There is no excuse for being late to practice. 5. Vulgarity, temper tantrums, or fighting is absolutely prohibited. 6. During instructional periods you will only speak when spoken to or with permission. 7. You must wear a mouthpiece to all games and practices. 8. Socks, pants and jerseys should be washed on a regular basis to prevent disease. It is the responsibility of you and your parents to keep your uniform and football shoes clean. 9. When addressing or replying to any coach, you will call him/her “coach”. Game officials should be addressed as “sir.” 10. Missing or cutting a practice will not only hurt you but your team as well, and you can be “benched” at the discretion of your coach. 11. A player may be benched or not allowed to participate in a game or portions of a game for violation of Player’s Code of Conduct.
