Conduct at Athletic Events

Good sportsmanship is important. It is one of the fundamental reasons for having an athletic program. If the athletic program of our school does not develop good sportsmanship, it cannot be considered successful even if the teams are victorious.

As players or spectators, students and adults are expected to demonstrate the proper respect for all coaches, teammates, officials, opponents, spectators and equipment. They must be aware of the obligation to demonstrate their loyalty to themselves, their school and their team. They must exhibit the highest level of conduct both on and off the athletic field as they are, at all times, representatives of their teams, school and community. The MIAA taunting rule applies to all athletic events (See Selected Applicable State and Federal Laws).
