    7. Completed applications will need to be turned in to the RESpECT Program office ONE MONTH prior to the selected sports activity. Incomplete applications will not be processed. Applicants are responsible for submitting all required documents. A Check will not be processed at the end of the season.

  • Sportsmanship Creed

  • I recognize that being a member of the community carries with it responsibilities and rewards, and that as an athlete in the community I must not only embrace those responsibilities, but also conduct myself both on and off the playing field in a way which exhibits respect for myself and others. I, therefore, resolve to conduct myself with dignity as an athlete and as a citizen of the community recognizing and accepting that I:


    ➢ Must accept accountability for my behavior and its outcomes.
    ➢ Must honor my obligations and promises.
    ➢ Must exercise self-control.
    ➢ Must be willing to be fair with others in my dealings on and off the playing field.
    ➢ Must take pride in myself and my accomplishments, but never at the expense of demeaning another
    person or group.
    ➢ Must respect the efforts of others.
    ➢ Must respect authority.
