Date AthleWc Code of Behavior Deanery athle1c compe11on is a means of developing youth and giving them the opportunity to enjoy healthful sports. One of the most important lesson young athletes can learn is that whether you win or lose, they learn to respect opponents, officials and spectators. The most powerful way they learn this lesson is through example. It is important that involved all with the Deanery athle1c program follow this code: To emphasize the proper ideals of sportsmanship, ethical conduct and fair play. To demonstrate courtesy to opponents and officials. To respect the integrity and judgment of officials. To have a thorough understanding and acceptance of the rules and standards of eligibility. To recognize that the purpose of compe11on is to promote the physical, mental, moral, social and emo1onal well being of the players. To remember that a game is only an ac1vity and not a maber of life or death for player, coach, school, parish, official or fan. Players should: •  Know and demonstrate the fundamentals of sportsmanship. •  Curtail fellow teammates whose behavior is unbecoming. •  Respect the property of hosts and the decision-­‐making responsibili1es of officials. •  Show respect for injured opponents, and not applaud errors of opponents or penal1es. •  Not heckle, jeer or inten1onally distract members of the opposing team and never cri1cize fellow compe1tors or the coach for losing team. •  Respect the judgment and strategy of the coach, who should not be second-­‐guessed. •  Demonstrate appropriate behavior before and aqer contests. Coaches Should: •  Always set a good example for others to follow. •  Teach the values of honest effort in conforming to the spirit as well as the leber of the rules. •  Instruct the players of their sportsmanship responsibili1es. •  Discipline those players who display poor sportsmanship behavior and remove players who flaunt disciplinary ac1on. •  Be a gracious host to opponents and treat them, as you would want to be treated. •  Provide opportuni1es for social interac1on among coaches and players. •  Respect the officials' judgment and interac1on of the rules and lead by example to the players. •  Help players in recognizing the dangers of drugs, alcohol and tobacco use to their bodies and minds. Parents and Fans Should: •  Be courteous to players, coaches and fans of opponents. •  Cheer a good play by an opponent. •  Respect the officials' judgment and lead by example to the players. •  Not applaud errors of opponents or penal1es inflicted on them. •  Serve as a role model for the players. •  Respect the judgment and strategy of the coach, who should not be second-­‐guessed. •  Respect the property of your own facility and that of your opponents. All players, coaches or spectators who are not living up to this Deanery Code of Behavior will be subject to immediate suspension or expulsion from athle1c compe11ons. The head coach is ul1mately responsible for the conduct of his or her players and assistant coaches. The head coach and any parish or school administrators in abendance at a game are asked to be responsible for the behavior of their fans. PLEASE SHARE THIS CODE WITH YOUR COACHES, PLAYERS, PARENTS, and FANS. We hope that all involved in deanery athle1cs will work together to implement this Code. We can only fully implement this by focusing upon the philosophy of fully commibed Chris1an adults can we help our youth grow in all dimensions through athle1cs. BASKETBALL RULES updated – August 2015 New Albany Deanery Catholic Youth Ministry The purpose for Deanery Athle1cs is to form Chris1an community among our youth and to provide wholesome recrea1on. All teams are encouraged to foster good sportsmanship. Referees are instructed not to tolerate any display of unsportsmanlike conduct and to forfeit the game if necessary. Both Boys and girls games will be governed by IHSAA rules with the following excep1ons. HOSTING GAMES 1.  If parishes are hos1ng the Deanery Games; they may collect admission if they so choose to cover the expenses of u1li1es, etc. Admission to games shall be $1.00 for students and $2.00 for adults (No family fee). We are grateful for the willingness of our parishes to share their facili1es with us. In addi1on the hos1ng parish may decide to allow Free admission to Kindergarten and under as well as $1.00 for 65 and over. 2.  All players on the team roster, the coach, and the team scorekeeper are admibed free. In addi1on a Deanery Athle1c Pass for free admission has been distributed to parish youth ministers and they do not have to pay for themselves or immediate family members. ELIGIBILITY: 1. Any Catholic high school youth that will not be 19 years old before March 1st is eligible to play. 2. Any person playing on a high school basketball team is ineligible for Deanery compe11on. If he/she is dropped or no longer plays for his/her high school team before January 1, he/she becomes eligible for Deanery ball. 3. All players must be registered members of the parish for which they par1cipate.

Must fulfill the same age, school and Deanery requirements listed in "2, 3 & 4" above. 2. Only two (2) youth of other faiths may be on the roster of one team providing they are ac1ve members in your parish youth programs. NOTE: This rule is not here to allow you to recruit good players to improve your team. If you have youth of other faiths that are ac1ve members of your youth group or religious educa1on program this will allow them to also par1cipate on the basketball team. All non-­‐parish team members must be iden1fied on the roster. 5. Two parishes, unable to field a team individually because of too few players, may combine members to field one team with the Deanery Athle1c Coordinator’s approval. 6. A par1cipant whose parish does not have any entry in the league may play for a parish having a team. Only two (2) such players may be on the roster of one team.

Each Team needs to have copies of their player’s Individual Par1cipant Registra1on Form. This serves as the permission slip to par1cipate. Following our Archdiocesan CYO Guidelines, no medical release or form is needed from high school youth to par1cipate. COACHES: 1. Coaches and assistant coaches are required to abend a coach’s orienta1on/training within their first year of coaching. Failure to do so will disqualify team from league play. 2. The coach of a basketball team might be the one person who is able to connect young people to the church more effec1vely than any other. Therefore it is so important that coaches be people of faith who genuinely care for kids and know how to build self-­‐esteem of youth while teaching athle1c skills. 3. Age: 1.

Each team member present and dressed must be played in each game. Each player must play one full quarter for every game that he/she is present and dressed.
