RICHMOND COUNTY CODE OF CONDUCT
Richmond County Baseball Club Association Code of Conduct
To prevent any misunderstanding or misinterpretations when problems occur during the baseball season, the Richmond County Baseball Club Association Board of Directors has instituted the following Code of Conduct for players, managers, coaches and parents. This has been distributed to our managers, coaches, Board members, players and parents this season in the hope that it will strengthen our organization and its policies, and will clearly state the expectations that our organization has with regard to our standards of behavior.
Code of Conduct for Players
As a player for the Richmond County Baseball Club Association, I agree to:
• Respect my manager and coaches. The managers and coaches are volunteers who donate their time to our organization and my appreciation of their help should be reflected in all my actions on the playing field. It is my duty to listen to and follow the directions of my manager and coaches and to obey the rules set forth by the manager and coaches of the teams.
• Respect my team members and other players. I will not insult, criticize or verbally abuse any other player. Such behavior does not promote but destroys team spirit and will not be tolerated by the Richmond County Baseball Club Association.
• Never resort to physical threats or actions to rectify a situation. Physical outbursts are unacceptable and will be dealt with using a zero-tolerance policy. Any occurrence will be immediately directed to the Executive Board.
• Display good sportsmanship at all times. As a representative of the Richmond County Baseball Club Association, it is my duty to reflect the characteristics of fair play at all times. I will display to others that competition is healthy and I will not lower the standards of the Richmond County Baseball Club Association by engaging in unsportsmanlike conduct.
• Be a contributor to the Richmond County BaseballClub Association. I play baseball not only for my own personal pleasure and benefit but for the benefit and as a representative of the Richmond County Baseball Club Association. I will always give 100% to my team by doing the best job that I can.
• Be proud to be a player for the Richmond County Baseball Club Association and have FUN doing it!
Code of Conduct for Parents
As a parent of a player in the Richmond County Baseball Club Association, I agree to:
• Respect the managers and their coaching staff. Managers and coaches are volunteers who donate their time and expertise to the Richmond County Baseball Club Association. My appreciation of their efforts is paramount to ensuring a willing and ample supply of managers and coaches in the program. I will take practices and games seriously by making sure that my child(ren) are available and on time as scheduled. I will collect my children in a timely manner when practices and games are finished.
• Respect all players. All players are contributors to a team and should be positively encouraged by all parents. I will not engage in insults or criticisms of players. Such behavior does not promote team spirit but breaks apart a team and will not be tolerated.
• Follow proper channels to resolve any dispute with the Richmond County Baseball Club Association. The Richmond County Baseball Club Association is willing to assist any parent that has a problem with any of its programs. If I have an issue or problem, I understand that I should approach the manager or coaches of my child’s team, the league director, any individual member of the Board or the entire Board to address it. No parent should ever feel that the Richmond County Baseball Club Association is unapproachable.
• Display good sportsmanship at all times. The children are learning to become team players and work toward a common goal. I will always be non-judgmental in my support for their attempts and their outcomes.
• Be a contributor to the Richmond County Baseball Club Association. I will volunteer in some aspect of the program and will be a supportive and positive influence for all efforts made by the Richmond County Baseball Club Association.
• Appreciate that the Richmond County Baseball Club Association is striving to provide the best baseball program for my children. The programs of the Richmond County Baseball Club Association are intended to be learning and fun experiences for all players. I will relax and enjoy the youth baseball experience.
Code of Conduct for Managers and Coaches
As a manager for the Richmond County Baseball Club Association, I agree to:
• Respect all players. I will ensure that all criticism I offer to the players will be constructive and balanced with compliments. I recognize that all players are contributors to my team and will treat them all fairly and equitably within the rules.
• Respect all parents. I recognize that baseball is a big commitment for parents. I will keep my team parents informed as well as possible to ensure that the whole team is pulling in the same direction.
• Follow proper channels to resolve any disputes. I understand that I am not alone in my position as manager or coach. I have a strong organization to assist me in the resolution of problems, issues or disputes. If they arise, I will discuss problems with my manager or coaches, the player(s), the parents, the Board members or the entire Board as necessary. With the manager or coaches I will schedule a team meeting before our first practice to formulate the expectations for our team. These expectations will be published in writing and given to all my team players and parents.
• Display good sportsmanship at all times. I understand that the players are learning to be good sportsmen and team players and are quick to copy all behavior they see on the field, particularly that of me in my position as manager or coach. I will show respect to my team’s manager, coaches, players and parents and the opposing managers, coaches, players and parents at all times. The umpires and fans will also have my respect and I will respectfully take care of the playing fields, facilities and equipment that we use.
• Be a positive contributor to the Richmond County Baseball Club Association. I will be a positive and caring influence and an encouraging force in teaching the lessons of team play through baseball to all the players I encounter.

I, the undersigned Manager/Coach/ Parent/ Player, have read and agree to abide by, the Richmond County Baseball Club Association Code of Conduct.
I understand that violations of the Code of Conduct may result in my removal from programs sanctioned by Richmond County Baseball Club Association.
