Player Code of Conduct

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

As a Bellaire Little League Little League participant I hereby pledge that I will:
·       Encourage good sportsmanship from fellow players, coaches, officials, and parents.
·       Be a team player and support my teammates.
·       Be on time and attend every practice and game that I can, and will notify my coaches if I cannot.
·       Work hard to improve my skills.
·       Do my best to listen and learn from my coaches.
·       Encourage my parents to be involved with my team in some capacity.
·       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.
·       Accept the decisions of the officials with grace and never challenge or question calls.
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.

I also agree that if I fail to abide by the aforementioned rules and guidelines, I will be subject to disciplinary action levied by the Bellaire Little League Little League Board of Directors or Code of Conduct Committee that could include but is not limited to the following:
