SPORTS RULES

TRAINING RULES AND TEAM POLICIES

As athletes representing the school and community of Long Lake, all players on all teams are expected to agree to and follow the training rules outlined below:

  1. Players are expected to be present and on time for each practice.  Tardy or absent players will be penalized during practice and may be penalized in playing time should it be necessary.  Players not able to attend a practice are to notify the coach in person and in advance.
  2. Players are expected to attend school following a game day.
  3. Players that are unable to attend a full day of school due to illness may at the discretion of the coach, be restricted from game play or practice on that particular day.
  4. Players are expected to practice and play to the best of their abilities.
  5. Players are expected to maintain their personal equipment and school uniform throughout the season.  Players are responsible for loss or damage to school uniforms.
  6. Smoking, drinking and drug use will not be tolerated on or off school grounds.  As athletes, players are expected to abstain from these habits for training and role model purposes. Violations of this policy discovered by faculty or staff members, coaches, Board of Education members, or law enforcement officers will be dealt with quickly. 
    Consequences are as follows:
  7. FFor home games, players are to be dressed, stretched and ready to play ½ hour before game time.
  8. For away games, players are to be on the bus 5 minutes before departure. The bus will leave promptly at the announced times.
  9. Injuries of any description are to be reported to the coach as soon as possible (within 24 hours).  Should an injury require treatment from a doctor or hospital, players need to present a written release before they are allowed to practice or play again.  The Board of Education provides accident insurance for all students.  The district insurance will cover, for an accident at school, only what a student’s personal insurance does not cover.
  10. The coach will determine playing time according to a player’s participation in practice, skill level, physical fitness, willingness to win and sportsmanship.  Arguing with the coach, the officials or players/coaches of the opposing team is considered unsportsmanlike and will be dealt with quickly.

ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE/
EXTRACURRICULAR ELIGIBILITY

The primary function of our school centers on student class work, effort and achievement.  Academics come first. If a student is failing one or more subjects at any five week marking period:

a.        The student will meet with the superintendent and teacher(s) for an academic review.

b.        Parents will be notified.

c.        The student will attend a mandatory daily study session outside school hours during the ensuing five-week period.

At the end of the five weeks, the student’s academic performance will be re-evaluated.  If no improvement is evident, the student may be removed from extracurricular activities.  If improvement is evident, but the student is still failing, he/she will continue outside study sessions for the next five weeks.  If the student is passing all subjects, he/she will be excused from extra study sessions.

      Students who fail to attend assigned study sessions will be warned for the first offense; suspended for two weeks (no practices, games, or erformances) for the second offense; and terminated from the activity   for the third offense. 

      Students placed on in-school suspension are ineligible to participate in extra-curricular activities that day.

ATHLETIC TRIPS

1.  Students are to comply with the requests of chaperones at all times. Failure to do so may forfeit students’ rights to future trips.

2.  Students are to stay in designated seats during the game.  Non-players are not to go on the gym floor at any time when at basketball games.

3.  Students and players are to go directly to the school when leaving the bus and directly from the building to the bus after the game.

4.  Students are not to smoke at any time on a school trip.

5.  All players and managers are expected to travel to and from away games by school bus unless riding with a parent. Parents are to notify the chaperone or coach. Spectators riding the bus are also to come home on the bus riding with parents.  Parents must notify the chaperone.

6.  Students are expected to dress properly and show good sportsmanship by their conduct. 

7.  Spectator buses will depend on the number of students wishing to go. All spectators must have permission notes and medical release forms signed by parents and must sign up by 1:00 p.m. on the day of the game.
