In addtion to Strictly Hoops Code of Conduct the following Policies are required to be adhered to as participation in our program.

Attendance:

• Attendance at practices and games is mandatory
• Attendance at other team functions is strongly encouraged
• If a parent cannot attend, allow the student-athlete to go with another family
• Student-athlete should never miss for transportation reasons
• If student-athlete cannot attend (illness, family or school commitment, etc.):
• Notify coach as soon as possible
• Playing time may be reduced, not as punishment, but to recognize that student-athletes who attend are physically and mentally prepared to play

Respect for Referees:

• Student-athletes, coaches and parents must show respect for referees, during and after games.
• Student-athletes and parents should not talk to referees or comment on calls. The only person who should talk to the referee is the coach, and this must be done in a professional manner.
• Referee's styles vary from game to game and student-athlete's need to adjust
• Student-athletes and coaches cannot afford to be distracted by referees' calls.
• Coaches and parents set the example and tone for the student-athletes.

Student-athletes on Sideline need to:

• Stay next to the coach for instruction.
• Watch the game.
• Support teammates with positive comments.
• Mentally prepare to return to the game.
• Let the coach decide on substitutions.

Parents on the sideline will:

• Positively encourage student-athletes during the game and at home.
• Positively comment about the team or student-athletes to other spectators.
• Support the team no matter how the game is going.
• Be positive and supportive when things are going well, but more important when things are not going well.
• Let the coach focus on the game without interruption.
• Make only positive comments about any student-athlete.
• Have fun

Parents can reduce stress on student-athletes by:

• Making sure the student-athletes arrive at games and practices on time.
• Allowing the coaches give instruction before and during the game.
• Not talking to student-athletes on the field on the sideline, i.e. no coaching the team or individual student-athletes.
• Letting the student-athletes relax and interact with other student-athletes between the games.

Comments/Complaints:

• Strictly Hoops encourages open communication.
• If a parent needs clarification on an issue, please contact the coach or a Director for clarification.
• If a parent has a concern, please wait 24 hours before discussing the issue.
• If not satisfied with concerns being addressed, concerns should be discussed with the a Director of Basketball.

Consequences of Violating Team Policies:

• 1st Warning - Generally, informal discussion with student-athlete or parent.
• 2nd Warning - Formal discussion with student-athlete or parent.
• 3rd Warning - The matter will be brought before Strictly Hoops Board of Directors.
