I'm a big fan of the 24 hour rule. Nothing good comes out of a parent/coach interaction when emotions are high....

2015 HIGH SCHOOL JV SOFTBALL CONTRACT AND GOALS

PLAYERS

1. I will make all practices and games. Failure to make a practice/game may lead to not starting/playing a game. If I cannot make a game or a practice, I will call the head coach to let him know. I will discuss it with my coach if I must be absent. He is open to discussing things as sometimes situations are different. (Justified excuses from practices-sickness and religious activities which include attending family religion events).
2. Practices/Scrimmages/Games will occur during Spring Break so if you go on vacation, Rule #1 will be applied.
3. I will be on time for all practices and games. If I have to stay for extra help I will only be excused from being late if I come with a note from the supervising teacher. Being on time lets me warm up properly and helps me be ready for a great practice or game. If you are consistently late for a practice, then you will not be able to be considered to start the next game! If you are going to be late, you must call/text the coach.
4. All cell phones will be turned off during practice and all games!
5. I will listen to the coaches when they are instructing so I, the player, can optimize my learning of the skill being taught.
6. If I am unsure of something, I will ask a coach.
7. I will strive to improve in all aspects of the game and will always do my best.
8. I will always represent Harborfields favorably and demonstrate good sportsmanship and always support my teammates.
9. I will always have a POSITIVE ATTITUDE no matter how the game turns out.


COACHES

1. I will always have a practice plan in place.
2. I will give as much one to one instruction as possible and as needed.
3. I will always encourage the players.
4. I will also observe the “24 hour rule”.
5. I will not scream or yell at any player but talk to them, on the side, one to one.
6. I will not miss any practice or games.
7. Lastly, please note that the coach is hard of hearing in his left ear which causes him to talk loudly so please realize that I am not yelling. Thanks!

I like this Anthony. From my experience, in the PLAYER section I would take 7., 8., 9., bump them down and as my new #7 add: I will not correct my fellow teammates, I will let the coaches do the coaching.
