PARENTS AND FANS ARE EXPECTED TO: Respect game officials, players, coaches, and fans. Recognize outstanding performances on either side of the playing field. Be exemplary role models of sportsmanship by supporting teams in every positive manner possible, including content of cheers and signs. Maintain composure at all times At the end of the game/Halftime we need all spectators to remain in the stands till players and officials have left the court. Anyone who cannot follow these expectations will be warned and then asked to leave premises.  Being in attendance is a privilege not a right.
