Player's responsibilities are simple; be respectful of others, be responsible, play fair, and always do your best, and always exhibit good sportsmanship.

·       Congratulate the other team after each game as a demonstration of sportsmanship.
·       Refrain from using violence, unfriendly language, or insults to others.
·       Be generous when I win and gracious when I lose.
·       Obey the rules of the game and always work for the good of the team.

Refrain from challenging or questioning on-field calls by officials and/or managers and coaches.
·       Conduct myself with honor and dignity.
·       Applaud the efforts of my teammates and opponents.
