The Athletes' Code of Conduct
I recognize that being a member of the community carries with it responsibilities and rewards, and that as an athlete in the community, I must not only embrace those responsibilities, but also conduct myself both on and off the playing field in a way which exhibits respect for myself and others. I therefore resolve to conduct myself with dignity as an athlete and as a citizen of the community, recognizing and accepting that I: must accept accountability for my behavior and its outcomes, must honor my obligations and promises, must exercise self-control, must be willing to be fair with others in my dealings on and off the playing field, must take pride in myself and my accomplishments, but never at the expense of demeaning another person or group, must respect the efforts of others, must respect authority, must play by the spirit, not just the letter, of the rules of the game and the rules of life, must strive to make my community - whether that be the team on which I play or the community in which I live - better because of my contributions as a member and as a citizen.
