Sportsmanship
Participation in sports, and any other activity at Beach Park Middle School, is not only a privilege, but also an extension of the classroom. We want our students to learn how to work as individuals and as a team. We also want students to learn how to be respectful citizens in their community, even in challenging circumstances.
It is our job as parents, coaches, athletic directors, and administrative staff to hold our students to a high level of sportsmanship and citizenship. Students and parents agree to this code of conduct by signing up for this extra-curricular activity.
To that end, we will be taking strong action for any student who violates the rules of sportsmanship. Any student who receives a technical foul for conduct or sportsmanship issues will be removed from the game/match and serve an additional one (1) game suspension. Any student involved in taunting, or verbally harassing an opponent, or using profanity on the court/field will be removed from the game and serve an additional one (1) game suspension. If a student is involved in a fight, that student will be removed from the team. When physically confronted by another team’s player, we expect our student to simply walk away from the confrontation.
Our coaches are expected to model the same sportsmanship characteristics, and will be held to the same policy as their team.
We want our students to enjoy the activities in which they participate. However we feel that it is more important that our students learn the value of good sportsmanship and fair-play, even when faced with difficult situations.
