2026 THREE STRIKE POLICY

 

Definitions

 

Strike: A documented incident of inappropriate behavior or violation of team policies.

 Inappropriate Behavior: Actions that disrupt team harmony, demonstrate disrespect, compromise safety, or violate the codes of conduct outlined by the program.

 Coaches and Volunteers: Individuals responsible for overseeing practices, games, and events who will enforce this policy.

Youth Football and Cheer play a vital role in encouraging physical, social and emotional growth of children. The purpose of the Three Strike Policy is to promote a positive, respectful, and safe environment for all participants in youth football and cheerleading. This policy aims to address behavioral issues effectively while providing opportunities for improvement, while applying to all players, cheerleaders, coaches, and volunteers involved in the youth football and cheerleading programs.

 

1. First Strike

 

A verbal warning will be given for the first instance of inappropriate behavior. This may include:

 

• Disrespect towards coaches, teammates, or officials.

 

• Failure to follow instructions during practice or games.

 

•Unsportsmanlike conduct.

 

Action: The coach will discuss the behavior with the player/cheerleader and remind them of the expectations. Documentation of the incident will be kept.

 

2. Second Strike

 

A second instance of inappropriate behavior will result in a formal written warning. This may include repeated actions from the first strike or more serious violations.

 

Action: The coach will meet with the player/cheerleader and their parents/guardians to discuss the issue. The player/cheerleader may be required to sit out for one game or practices, depending on the severity of the incident. Documentation of the second strike will be recorded.

 

3. Third Strike

 

A third instance of inappropriate behavior will lead to more severe consequences, which may include:

 

• A suspension from games or practices for a designated period (e.g., one week or the remainder of the season, depending on the behavior).

 

•Possible removal from the team if the behavior is egregious or if previous strikes indicate a pattern.

 

Action: A meeting will be held with the player/cheerleader, their parents/guardians, and the coaching staff to discuss the outcome and the path forward. Documentation of the third strike will be maintained, and the decision regarding suspension or removal will be communicated clearly.

 

The Three Strike Policy is designed to help youth athletes and cheerleaders learn about accountability and respect while participating in football and cheerleading. By providing clear guidelines, we can foster a positive environment that encourages personal growth and teamwork.

INLAND IMMORTALS:

2026 ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY

Youth Football and Cheer play a vital role in encouraging physical, social and emotional growth of children. It is therefore essential for parents, coaches, board members, officials and all volunteers to encourage their youth football players and cheerleaders to embrace the values of good sportsmanship, discipline and character development. In order to participate in AAU Inland Immortals Football and Cheer, all participants, volunteers, parents, spectators and guests must abide by the following rules.

Be a good sport, win or lose, be honest, fair and always show good sportsmanship. Show courtesy and respect to teammates, opponents, coaches, officials and volunteers.

Realize that your participation in football or cheerleading is a privilege not a right.

You will not engage in unsportsmanlike conduct or rude behavior.

Parents, you are vital to the development of these young athletes. Whether sitting in the stands or helping out as a volunteer, you must set a positive example.

Parents and adults involved in youth sports should be models of good sportsmanship and lead by example on and off the playing field. Give constructive criticism to your child during a private moment, never in front of other parents, participants, officials, spectators, etc. Never grab your child, or any other, by the face mask or helmet.

Support your coaching staff and refrain from excessive “sideline coaching” from the stands.

Abide by the decisions of officials on the field as fair and called to the best ability of those officials.

If you would like to discuss your child with one of the coaches, please do so AFTER practice. If something comes up during practice or at a game, please direct your concerns to your team athletic director or cheer coach.

AAU Inland Immortals Football and Cheer is an equal opportunity organization and will not allow discrimination based upon age, ethnicity, ancestry, gender, national origin, disability, race, size, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic background, or any other status prohibited by applicable law.

Any parent/guardian, who wishes to file a complaint, MUST do so in writing and MUST turn it into the Chapter President, Chapter Vice President, Athletic Director or Cheer Coordinator, for it to be deemed valid and further action taken, if necessary.

PLEASE, DO NOT walk through the practice/game field! We have designated areas for spectators for everyone’s safety. No unauthorized person is allowed on the practice/game field at any time. Parents must supervise their non-participant children at all times and assure that siblings also abide by these rules and keep them off of the playing fields. This is an insurance issue for the league.

You must put your trash in the trashcans and not leave it on the fields or in the parking lot.

All adults and participants must refrain from using profanity and from making any rude or derogatory remarks, by word or gesture, directed to their own or opposing teams or chapters, in any manner which may incite confrontations.

Parents/Members are solely responsible for any siblings, family or friends in attendance. Parents/Guardians will not encourage their child or any other person to engage in unsportsmanlike conduct with any coach, parent, participant, official or any other attendee.

All School and public park facilities in California are NON-SMOKING, and NO ALCOHOL is allowed -The use of any of these WILL NOT BE TOLERATED and will be enforced through the local law enforcement agency. This will include the practice and game fields, home and away. Any person deemed to be using alcohol or drugs will be removed from the field/facility immediately and will be suspended from our program.

Please remember that the coaches, athletic directors, team parents, board members, cheer staff, etc. are all VOLUNTEERS. Please treat them with respect. They are NOT babysitters, you must be on time!!

Inappropriate behavior IS CAUSE for immediate ejection and failure to comply with these rules per the AAU Inland Immortals By-Laws and AAU rules will result in the suspension of the player/cheerleader, parent, spectator or guests' right to attend practices and/or games and may also result in your removal from the league with no refunds at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

This chapter has the right and authority to suspend or dismiss any persons from the program if these rules are not adhered to.
