THIS IS ISAC! SPORTSMANSHIP IS THE KEY TO ALL WE DO!!

Players Code of Behavior

Play by the rules.

Never argue with an official. If you disagree, have your captain or coach approach the official during a break or after the competition.

Control your temper. Verbal abuse of officials, other players or spectators is never acceptable. Deliberately distracting or provoking an opponent are not tolerable or permitted behaviors in any sport.

Work equally hard for yourself and/or your team. Your team’s performance will benefit and so will you.

Be a good sport. Applaud all good plays whether they are made by your team or the opposition.

Treat all participants in your sport as you like to be treated. Do not bully or take unfair advantage of another competitor.

Cooperate with your coach, teammates and opponents. Without them there would be no competition.
