11. Player’s Responsibility
Have Fun
Sportsmanship
Team work
Attitude
Discipline
Fun – Our primary goal is to have fun, while trying our best at all times. Although we all want to win, we will not sacrifice our primary goal. Baseball is a fun sport with lasting memories and friendships.
Sportsmanship - We will exhibit good sportsmanship at all times. Whether winning or losing, whether performing well or struggling and regardless of how our competitors treat us, we will ALWAYS exhibit good sportsmanship. Good sportsmanship requires respect toward teammates, coaches, competitors and umpires at all times.
Attitude – Attitude is a decision and attitude is contagious. Each player is expected to strive for the best, most positive attitude at all times. Each player is expected to act as a positive role model for their teammates. Positive attitudes lead to more fun and more winning.
Teamwork - Baseball is a team sport with individual contributions. In order to succeed, we must approach the game with hard work and respect. If a teammate is having a tough day or struggling in the field or at the plate, it is our responsibility as a good teammate to do our best to make them feel better. If a teammate does well, it is our responsibility to recognize his achievements. Treat each other as close friends at all times.
Discipline – Each player is expected to approach each practice and each game with a serious, hard-working approach. Although having fun is our primary goal, we must pay attention at all times, listen to each coach, hustle at all times (in practice, during pre-game drills, when winning and when losing).
Although each player posses different skill levels, the coaches expect EVERY player to approach this season with a high level of discipline and respect.
