discipline plan

Do you all give out rules to start the year and say if you do this then..... ?

This is what I have in my program model for dicipline.
Student Athletes Team Rules:
1. No jewelry at practice, weight room, or games per UIL rules (Safety reasons) Jewelry includes ear rings, finger rings, tongue rings, necklaces, watches and bracelets.

2. No surprises! Immediately communicate ALL actions in which you are involved that may be detrimental to our Athletic Program. (whether it is school related or not.)

Example: You and a friend are at Wal-Mart, your friend who is not a football player, was caught stealing a CD. Both of you were arrested, but you did not actually take the CD. Both of you were arrested, but you did not actually take the CD.
Should you let the coach know?

Answer: Yes, if we find out before you tell us. You will be dismissed or suspended from the program. It is your responsibility to inform the coaches immediately.

Example: For Disciplinary reasons in school you are sent to the office and or given in school suspension. You must tell the coaches at the first opportunity. Make the coaches aware of the situation.

3. Lying! Whatever the situation, you must report it to the coaches. Liars cannot be a part of the program. It is better to be disciplined and or suspended, than to be dismissed. Liars are dismissed.

4. Theft! Thieves are not tolerated. If caught the thief will be suspended from the Athletic Program for one calendar year or the remainder of your eligibility. You will also be suspended indefinitely from attending any Athletic events.

5. No hats or caps are to be worn inside the building. This includes wave caps, stockings, bandanas or caps.

6. Weight room rules are posted in the weight room. Closed toe shoes and shirts must be worn. And no CD’s that have profanity in its lyrics.

7. No profanity will be used during practice, athletic period or games.
