CJFC Parent/Guardian Code of Conduct 

• I will not force my child to participate in CJFC Soccer. I understand that if my child does not whole-heartedly want to be a participant in the program, it will most likely be a negative experience for all involved. 
  
• I will remember that our highest priority is the health and well-being of the children. I will not let my emotions or my will to see my child's team win create a negative distraction for the team or organization.
  
• I will always encourage my child to demonstrate good sportsmanship and to show respect to all players, coaches, referees and spectators.
  
• I will remember that youth sports are for the children and not the adults, and I will do my best to make the experience fun for everyone involved.
  
• I will not engage in any unsportsmanlike behavior with any player, coach, referee, parent or spectator (such as booing, taunting, negative comments, or profane language or gestures).
  
• I will teach my child to play by the rules and to resolve conflicts without resorting to hostility, disrespect, or violence.
  
• I will praise my child for competing and playing hard, and make them feel like a winner regardless of the score.
  
• I will teach my child that doing one's best is more important than winning and losing; and I will understand that a child does not always perform at their highest level; everyone has a bad day or a bad game.
  
• I will respect the officials/referees authority during games and will never question, discuss or confront coaches at the game field. I understand the need to meet with coaches away from the children at an agreed upon time and place.
  
• I will monitor the actions of the coaches and will bring any behavior that is inconsistent with CJFC's Mission Statement and core values to the attention of someone in authority of the organization.
  
• I will pick up my child promptly after practices and games so the coach is not left in a compromising position. 
  
• I agree that if I fail to abide by the aforementioned rules and guidelines, I will be subject to disciplinary action that could include, but is not limited to the following:
  --Verbal warning by the official, coach, or a league administrator
  --Written warning with documentation of incident kept on file
  --Parental game suspension with written documentation of incident kept on file
  --Parental season suspension
  --Child being removed from the organization if suspensions are not recognized and followed
