Dedication, desire, discipline, respect, and good citizenship are essential personal characteristics which are necessary for an athlete to successfully participate on any team. The goal of the South Florida Ballas (SFB) is to nurture these traits. In doing so, each athlete should develop a sense of pride in herself, the team, and community. The coaches and Board members of the SFB believe that the tradition of winning is based on these stated principles. In order to help the athlete to achieve these goals, the following “Athletic Policies” must be understood and agreed to between the team, student athlete, and the parents.AcademicsWe expect the athletes to maximize their efforts in achieving their full academic potential. Good grades are necessary component for successful participation on any athletic team. Therefore, certain standards must be met.School district policy Those who fail a subject may be required to participate in after school programs and may be temporarily prohibited from participating in basketball activities to allow for greater focus on academics If an athlete who receives an interim report showing a failing grade it would be in his/her best interest to report for extra help provided by the after school program to circumvent a failing grade If an athlete fails according to district policy, the athlete must show documentation that grades have improved before being re-instated into basketball activities Drinking, Drugs, and Tobacco ProductsThe use of any player drinking alcoholic beverages, tobacco and illegal drugs are strictly prohibited by the South Florida Ballas organization. Verification of drinking of alcoholic beverages and the use of illegal drugs by the athlete will result in immediate dismissal from the program.Attendance, Suspension, and InjuriesEach athlete is expected to accept responsibility for his/her appearance and behavior at all time. Therefore, certain standards must be met.1. If any athlete is not feeling well, suffers an injury, or is unable to participate fully in practice, they may be asked to leave practice or scrimmage so they may seek medical attention and recuperate properly.3. Suspensions from School - We expect our athletes to be role models for the community. Hence, if an athlete is suspended he/she cannot participate and/or attend game or practice for the duration of the suspension. Any athlete who accumulates a total of four days for all suspensions received may be dismissed from the program and remain ineligible for the remainder of the academic year.4. If injured, an athlete in the spirit of the team, should attend the local games and lend support to the team unless physically unable to do so.All team members must attend all scheduled practices, games, and meetings. If circumstances arise whereby the athlete cannot attend a practice, game or meeting, the coach must be notified by personal contact, email or phone call from the parent/player. The onus is on the player!1st unexcused absence or tardiness – Post practice sprints 2nd unexcused absence or tardiness - Suspended at least 1?2 game and post practice sprints 3rd unexcused absence or tardiness - Suspended for one full game and post practice sprints 4th unexcused absence or tardiness – Consideration for team dismissal; Breach of Contract Penalty Cell Phone PoliciesIn order to avoid disruptions during practice, scrimmages, games, and tournaments, cell phones that are seen or heard in the gym during these times will be taken up and returned to the parent. Repeated offenses will result in athletes being prohibited from possessing the cell phone in the gym. Behavior/Language As representatives of our program, we expect our athletes to be on their best behavior and to act as ladies/ gentlemen at all times. Sportsman like conduct and other negative behavior will not be tolerated and may result in being placed on suspension or dismissal from the program. Uniforms All uniforms are the property of the South Florida Ballas organization. Each athlete will be issued a team uniform for use while affiliated with the team. Each athlete is responsible for his/her uniform and care thereof. If lost or damaged other than from game use, the athlete is responsible for replacement of the uniform at a cost of $50.00. Athletes are expected to be in the prescribed uniform for all team/program events and activities. It is with a sense of pride in our program and an understanding that it is a privilege to participate in this athletic program. As an athlete, I am prepared to enter this agreement with the team and coach(es) to participate. VolunteeringSouth Florida Ballas organization is committed to serving its community. There will be two (2) events the team will volunteer at annually. Each player will be required to participate in these events while participating in the program.I understand that I must meet all the requirements set forth in this agreement as a participant with South Florida Ballas. Player Signature: ______________________________________ Date ________________Parent Signature: ______________________________________ Date ________________ Note: A player who does not abide by this contract will not be permitted to participate on the team for the next season. A player who properly resigns from the team by personally informing the coach with the parent present will not be considered to have breached their contract and will have left the team in good standing. A player who just stops showing up to practices and games and then quits will be considered in breach of contract. SOUTH FLORIDA BALLAS BASKETBALL PARENT/PLAYER/COACH RELATIONSHIPTravel basketball can teach many positive traits, such as the spirit of cooperation, self-discipline, and regard for physical fitness. We ask that parents refrain from criticizing opposing players, other parents, other teams, teammates, or officials. We also ask that parents refrain from involving themselves in the coaching of the players at either practices or games, unless asked. Please leave the coaching to the coaches! We also ask that parents refrain from talking to officials before, during or after our games.Team discipline is extremely important. Breaking team rules will have consequences, which will be situationally appropriate and determined by the coaching staff. We are not anticipating any disciplinary problems however, consequences might include limited playing time, extra conditioning for the individual and/or dismissal from the program. In our spectator enthusiasm, we are often prone to issue instructions to the players that are contrary to those of the coach; this only causes confusion for the players.PLEASE ENCOURAGE YOUR SON/DAUGHTER TO FOLLOW HIS/HER COACH’S INSTRUCTIONS AND LEAVE THE COACHING TO THE COACHES.Parents need to align themselves with the coach in teaching their children how to cope with the natural frustrations of being a member of a team. Sports provide an excellent opportunity to teach children about the realities of competitive situations. They must be taught how to be a cooperative team member, how to make use of both positive and negative feedback, how to cope with adversity, how to achieve mental toughness, and how to be a gracious winner or loser. Players are not guaranteed playing time! Some athletes will play more than others. These decisions are entirely at the coach’s discretion, the coaches are under no obligation to explain their decisions, and will not discuss playing time at anytime. However, coaches are available to discuss how a player can work to improve their skills which will ultimately lead to more playing time. When a player has a concern with the coach, parents have the responsibility of teaching their children the steps necessary to remedy the situation. The following steps should be taken if a player has a concern with the coach:STEP ONE: The player should discuss the problem/concern with the coach(es) and try to arrive at a solution to the problem AT PRACTICE. STEP TWO: The player should call the coach and set up time or an appointment before or after practice to discuss the problem/concern with the coach(es) and try to arrive at a solution to the problem on their own. STEP THREE: The parent should call the coach and set up a time for the player, parent and coach(es) to meet and arrive at a solution.UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES is a parent to approach a coach with a complaint or an evaluation of coaching philosophy BEFORE, DURING OR AFTER A GAME.The above procedure must be followed in dealing with any situations that may arise. The coaches will conduct themselves professionally and expect the same courtesy and will NOT ALLOW THE COACHES OR PLAYERS TO BE BERATED by parents or fellow teammates. If you or your children refuse to follow the guidelines set forth, you will be asked to leave the program.We hope that support for the program will continue to grow each year. We hope that parents will support their child(ren) by attending their tournaments and giving positive encouragement. We encourage you to refrain from criticizing your child, their teammates, their coaches, or the officials. If a parent cannot abide by the aforementioned expectations during a game or practice, their child may be removed from the game/practice until the parent conforms to the program standards for conduct. A player or spectator may be asked to leave the premises if they become disrespectful to other players, coaches, or officials. Please be careful and respectful. Remember that our behavior is a reflection of our families, teams, programs, and community.Player Name?: _______________________________________________________________________Parent Signature: __________________________________ Date: _____________________________ 2019 SOUTH FLORIDA BALLAS BASKETBALL GIRLS BASKETBALL TENTATIVE SCHEDULE DATE TOURNAMENTLOCATIONORGANIZATIONMarch 16-17South Florida ShowdownFt.
