Parents and players,

We are excited to have you a part of our summer league.  The purpose of our league is to create an environment where players and coaches can feel comfortable working through learning to play as a team as well as introducing offenses and defenses.  It is an opportunity for fans to enjoy and experience that process with their team.  Please understand that our game officials are taking time out of their summer to accommodate us and allow us to play games in a controlled environment. They will not always make the calls you want and you may not always agree with them.  Your coaches are also showing a lot of dedication taking time out of their summer to make your daughters better and to improve their team as a whole. It is our expectation that you will treat each and every one of them with respect before, during, and after games.  We want our summer league to be a great experience for everyone.  This includes our parents, players, coaches, and officials.  With that in mind, please read through and sign the Code Of Conduct for the Chesterton Summer League below.  This must be completed by every player and their parent before they may be permitted to participate in the league.

The following spectator standards and guidelines will be upheld and enforced with all spectators at each and every game:

Fans attending games will respectfully cheer both their team and the opponent in the spirit of good sportsmanship.  They will support the efforts of players and coaches regardless of the result and comply with any directions given by game management and officials.

Fans are expected to not ridicule, criticize, or show any signs of disrespect to officials, players, coaches, or other spectators. The use vulgar, racial, culturally insensitive and/or abusive language or threatening gestures will not be tolerated. Engaging in any activity that embarrasses or berates others and prohibits them from enjoying the experience of the game will not be allowed. Furthermore, anyone attending any game under the influence of alcohol or drugs will not be permitted.  Parents and/or fans engaging in any of these behaviors will be asked to leave the game and may not return to any further games that summer for our league.

The following player standards and guidelines will be upheld and enforced with all players at each and every game:

Players are expected to be respectful at all times to officials, league management, opponents, coaches, and fans.  No foul language, physically aggressive acts, or gestures will be tolerated.  Engaging in any activity that berates others and interferes with fair and safe play is unacceptable.  Players engaging in any of these behaviors will be asked to leave the game and may be subject to removal from the league.

I understand that there will not be an athletic trainer on site for the Chesterton Summer League. I understand that coaches will have access to the training room where they can get ice from the ice machine if that is needed due to injury. The Chesterton Summer League will have coaches and personnel available to assist if anything is needed. Chesterton Girls Basketball LLC, Trojan Basketball Club Inc., Chesterton High School, the Duneland School Corporation, as well as the Chesterton High School Athletic Department, are not liable for any injuries that could occur throughout participating in the Chesterton Summer League. 

If you have any questions regarding this liability form, you can contact League Manager Coach Candy Wilson by email at chestertongirlsbbchs@gmail.com. Thanks for your cooperation and we look forward to seeing you at our summer league!
