PARENTS CODE OF ETHICS:

I hereby pledge to provide positive support, care and encouragement for all children participating in Scott County Youth Basketball by following this Parents’ Code of Ethics:

• I understand that I am fully responsible for any actions of my children, relatives, friends or any guests who may be attending a SCYB event with me, and understand that they too are required to follow the Parent’s Code of Ethics.
• I will respect and follow the facility rules where the event is being held.
• I will encourage good sportsmanship by demonstrating positive support for all players, coaches and officials at every game, practice or other SCYB event and will place the emotional and physical wellbeing of all the children ahead of my personal desire to win.
• I will support all coaches and officials working with the children, in order to encourage a positive and enjoyable experience for everyone.
• I will demand a fun, safe and healthy sports environment for the children that is free from drugs, alcohol, foul and abusive language and will refrain from their use at all SCYB events.
• I will remember that the game is for the children - not adults.
• I will treat other players, coaches, fans and officials with respect regardless of race, sex, creed or ability.
• I will refrain from yelling at or taunting any players, officials, coaches, parents or other spectators. 
• I will refrain from approaching any referee before, during or after any game and I will never enter the playing area (court) without the referee’s expressed permission.
• I will direct all questions or concerns about referee calls, rules or anything else pertaining to the game to my child’s coach.  At no time will I approach the referee with these questions.
• I understand that the officials, coaches, league coordinators and SCYB Board members have complete authority during any and all SCYB events and will make all decisions based on the safety and wellbeing of the children.
• I understand that the SCYB Board’s mission is to give each child the opportunity to participate in a supervised, organized and safe environment and to attempt to keep the welfare of the children free from any adult ambition and personal glory.

Finally, I understand and agree that if I (or any relatives, friends or guests who may be attending the event with me), violate any portion of the Parents’ Code of Ethics during a SCYB event, an official, league coordinator or SCYB Board member may ask us to leave the facility.  Failure to leave the facility will force the aforementioned official to call the local police department to escort us from the facility.

If I (or any relatives, friends or guests who may be attending the event with me), are twice removed from any SCYB event during the same season, I understand that we will not be allowed to return during that season.  In addition, I understand that we will also be required to meet with the SCYB Board and discuss what behavior changes we will make so we can return the next season.  I also understand that the SCYB Board may find it necessary to prohibit us from attending any future SCYB events.
