PARENTS CODE OF CONDUCT
North Shore Football plays an important role in promoting the physical, social, and emotional development of our players. It is therefore essential for parents, and their guests to encourage participants to embrace the values of good sportsmanship and should lead by example by demonstrating fairness, respect, and most importantly self control. I therefore pledge to be responsible for my words and actions while attending any North Shore Football event and shall conform my behavior to the following Code of Conduct: Please read each line carefully.
1. I will remember that children participate to have fun and that the game is for youth, not adults.
2. I will inform the coach of any physical disability or ailment that may affect the safety of my child or the safety of others.
3. I will try to learn and understand the rules of the game of football.
4. I (and my guests) will be a positive role model for my child and encourage sportsmanship by showing respect and courtesy, and by demonstrating positive support for all players, coaches, officials, and spectators at every game, practice or other sporting event.
5. I (and my guests) will not engage in any kind of unsportsmanlike conduct with any official, coach, player or parent such as taunting, refusing to shake hands or using profane language or gestures.

15. I fully understand that North Shore Football is run by volunteers that help make my child’s football experience as successful as possible.
