Behavior Expectations
-Students will be given two strikes before they are dismissed from the team (first strike=warning, second strike=dismissal).
-The coaches will be the judge of whether or not a situation is worthy of a strike.
Students will receive a ticket at the end of practice that will be given to the parent/guardian to make sure everyone is aware of what happened.
-If a student goes to Y-Care after practice, students will need to take the ticket home and have it signed by the next practice. Some situations that can warrant a strike are:
- Hitting
- Kicking
- Tripping
- Pushing
- Being disrespectful to coaches or other students
- Not staying on task/leaving designated area
- Not behaving during pickup
Final Information
-All communication will be done via email and the webpage (under the "Activities" tab)

-Any questions please contact coaches Kristen Desper, Matt Kochert, and Karen Williams
