3. I will encourage my daughter to play by the rules and to resolve conflict without resorting to hostility or violence.

7. I will remember that children learn by example. I will acknowledge good plays and performances by both my daughter’s team and their opponents.

    FAIR PLAY CODE FOR PLAYERS
