Player Expectations

ALWAYS show respect. This includes your coaches, parents, teachers,
teammates, and anyone else in the community. You will never back talk a
coach and any type of disrespect will not be tolerated.

Players are expected to be at all practices and games. While injured
players may be unable to play, they are still expected to arrive on time,
listen to coaches, encourage teammates, and assist them.

In very rare situations, players may be excused from games and/or
practices. When this occurs, players are responsible for informing the
coach verbally through a phone call or meeting at the earliest possible
time.

Be on time for everything. On time means five or ten minutes early. Be
dressed and ready to go at the scheduled time. This is a good habit for the
rest of your life. If you fail to be on time, you will be rewarded!. Chronic
tardiness may result in suspension of the player.
Player Expectations
 When players miss practices and/or games, playing time in future
games may be affected.
 Everyone is expected to carry himself in a sportsman like manner
at all times.
 Players will dress according to team regulations at all practices,
games, and other team functions.
 All players will ride to games on the team bus. Players can ride
home with parents providing a parent signs them out after the
game.
 Players must maintain a satisfactory level of academic progress.
 Drug and alcohol use will not be tolerated.
 We will follow all Northwood High School and Chatham County
Public School rules and regulations.
Expectations
 These are not all of the rules, but some guidelines to
follow. If another situation occurs the staff will
make a decision on how to handle it. We hope we
don’t have to deal with any situations, but when
situations arise there will be decisions to make.
Basketball is not a right that you have, but it is a
privilege. We must stay positive and stay together
this season. There will be many highs and lows, but
we will need to believe in each other.

at all times.
 The gym floor is restricted to players and coaches only during
