HOW TO BE A GOOD SPORT PARENT Talk to and listen to children about their sport experience. Allow children to make decision about sport participation. Don’t push children. Provide emotional and social support to children. Let coaches handle assessing individual and team performance. Avoid connecting external rewards or parental affection to participation or performance. Encourage a wide range of participation in sports and physical activities. Help children set limits in their sport participation to help avoid burnout. PARENT’S CODE OF ETHICS (NAYS) I will encourage good sportsmanship by demonstrating positive support for all players, coaches, and officials at every game, practice, or other youth sports event. I will place the emotional and physical well-being of my child ahead of my personal desire to win. I will insist that my child play in a safe and healthy environment. I will require that my child’s coach be trained in the responsibilities of being a youth sports coach and that the coach upholds the Coaches’ Code of Ethics. I will support coaches and officials working with my child in order to encourage a positive and enjoyable experience for all. I will acknowledge that practices are not for drop off care and I will discipline my own child. I will demand a sports environment for my child that is free from drugs, tobacco, and alcohol, and will refrain from use at all youth sports events. I will remember that the game is for youth, not adults. I will do my very best to make youth sports fun for my child. I will ask my child to treat other players, coaches, fans, and officials with respect regardless of race, sex, creed, or ability. 54
I will read the National Youth Sports Association (NYSA) National Standards for Youth Sports and do what I can to help all youth sports organizations implement and enforce them. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Children of sponsors eligible to use DF<strong>MWR</strong> activities may use services provided by CYS YSF programs. Child age requirements vary with the sports activity. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES Registration for each sport will be announced in the community and will end one week prior to the first practice. Children registered after this time period will be placed on a team only if there are openings available. Registration for all sports programs takes place at the CER. To expedite the registration process, please call to set up an appointment. During registration, you will be asked to complete a CYS Registration Form and sign a parent Code of Ethics. It is very important that you provide complete information on these forms including the names and phone numbers of alternate Emergency Notification Designees and Release Designees. It is also important to list any allergies, medical concerns, or physical restrictions your child may have. It your child has any medical or physical concerns, a SNRT appointment will be made for you so that the coach may receive information regarding the needs of your child. At registration, you may opt to play up one age group, but cannot play down. Starting age of the lowest age group for each sport will be strictly adhered to, i.e., soccer player must be four by 1 August. Aging date for all sports is 1 August of the current school year. Assignments to baseball, flag football, and basketball will be made by grade rather than age. SPORTS PHYSICALS In order to register, each child must have a current sports physical. Sports physicals are required by Army regulation. A physical is valid for 12 months and must be valid through the end of the sport season in which your child is participating. The physical form must by signed by a licensed health professional. A sports physical form is available at CER or PYC. We will also accept the medical form you may have obtained from your child’s school provided it has the required documentation on it. We cannot enroll your child unless we have all required information. <strong>Parent</strong>s are advised to keep a copy of the physical form for future sports registrations. It is advisable to make an appointment for a sport physical with your doctor or medical care facility in plenty of time for the physical to be completed prior to the sport registration period. FEES The same sports activity fee is charged to all patrons participating in that sport regardless of total Family income, rank, or civilian grade. A team sports multiple child reduction will be 55
