Club / Player Guidelines:
- Obey all school (in accordance with the VBCPS HS Student Handbook & Code of Student Conduct) and coach/team rules and policies.
- All players must have a current VHSL sports physical on file with the lacrosse club in order to participate in any team practice or conditioning.
- Develop a solid work ethic on and off the field and budget time wisely to maintain satisfactory school grades and academic eligibility.
- Alcohol, drugs, smoking/vaping, cursing, foul language and disrespectful behavior (in person, in messages, or on social media) will not be tolerated.
- Be on time, geared up, and prepared for all team functions at the prescribed arrival time by the Coaches.
- Have a great attitude – bring it with you every practice and game. Good attitudes AND bad attitudes are contagious – we want to be around players with good ones!
- Address all administrators, faculty members, coaching staff, and referees as Sir, Ma’am, Mr., Mrs. or Coach.
- Do not question a coach’s decision on the field. Have your athlete request a meeting with the Coach. If this cannot be resolved, contact the Program Manager or School Sponsor.
- Communication is “key” to program success – The coaching staff cannot read minds, nor can we be present at all moments of the day. If something has happened that needs to be discussed, please do so in a timely manner. Any personal concerns should be addressed with the Coach as soon as possible. If a player will be late or will be missing practice or a game, the player will message their respective Coach.
- Attendance at team events and practices is critical to team success (even if injured). All decisions concerning the amount of competitive playing time missed due to absences will be determined by the Coach and reviewed on an individual basis.
