C.Y.S.A., SRYSL and SRSYSC, neither support nor tolerate a game that:

Parent’s Code

Parents should remember:

• Children need more positive example than criticism.
• Make athletic participation a positive experience for your child and others.
• Relieve competitive pressure; not increase it.  A child is easily affected by outside influences.
• The opponents are necessary friends. Without them your child could not participate.
• Applaud good plays by your team and by members of the opposing team.
