The same holds true for use of the Student Transportation Form.
Communication Guidelines
1. Encourage your son/daughter to address any
concerns directly with the coach before you get
involved.
2. If the issue does not get resolved in this manner, or
you feel that a matter requires your intervention
directly, contact the coach directly.
3. Avoid discussing a matter before/after a game or
practice
4. If meeting with the coach does not provide a
satisfactory resolution, call the Athletic Director to
discuss the matter.
Sportsmanship
Good sportsmanship is an expectation for
players and fans alike. Taunting, booing and
the use of inappropriate language will not be
tolerated. Please respect the decisions made
by game and school officials. Those who violate
this code will be asked to leave the stadium.
Please cheer for your team, not against the
other team. Thank you for supporting Bethel
Athletics.
