New Competition with Civility
Program for 4 REAL Sports
and USSSA
Dear Parents,
Coaches, Players and Fans,
4 REAL
Sports & USSSA have made a concerted
effort to promote sportsmanship at
our basketball tournaments to keep
the focus on the kids playing and
maintaining the integrity of the
game by trying to remind adults it’s
about the kids, not us. We have
found that the majority of issues we
have at events have little to do
with the players, but more with
adults, either coaches or parents.
I’ve even had players apologize for
the adult’s unsportsmanlike
behavior.
We try
to emphasize Competition with
Civility – its basic premise is
to treat others like you want to be
treated....

New Competition with Civility
Program
for 4 REAL Sports and USSSA
Continued from top of page
....no matter the
circumstances. I know it’s difficult
in the heat of a game – you want the
best for your kids, you want them to
win, you can see when a referee is
not all into the game or making
questionable calls; I know, I see it
at my son’s games as well.
Though
we have tried various things over
the years in our tournaments to
emphasize the sportsmanship message,
it seems there are some still not
getting it.
Thus, 4
REAL Sports is reaching out
to parents, coaches and fans
of the game to collaborate on
improving the environment of youth
basketball at our tournaments. We
can’t help what happens at other
events, but we are committed to
trying to make a positive change and
impact in our events. If this means
we have to devise a list of teams
that are not welcome back because of
a coach, parent or fan behavior we
will do that across the board with
USSSA tournaments in the metro area.
If it means having smaller
tournaments, we will. However, in
order to bring real change, we need
your help!
We
will begin immediately by
implementing a NEW Competition
with Civility program with our
very next tournament.
We will
now require:
-
Each
coach participating in the tournament
to sign
a Competition with Civility
contract which states that they
agree to abide by our sportsmanship guidelines during
the tournament and that
failure to abide by those
guidelines
will result in their being
told to immediately vacate the
premises, with the understanding
that no refunds
will be provided.
-
Each
team to provide one volunteer to
be the Competition with
Civility “Ambassador” at ALL
of the teams’ games. That person
will be designated to monitor
the behavior of their fans,
coach and players. If they see
behavior that is disruptive,
unsportsmanlike and
disrespectful, they will address
it with that person and remind
them that that type of
behavior is not and will not be tolerated.
And, that if it continues, they will be
told to leave premises.
-
Furthermore, team volunteer
ambassadors will receive a
Competition with Civility
t-shirt to wear during the
tournament that they can be
easily and immediately
identified. Printed on the
t-shirt will be the words: Be a
4 REAL Sport, kids are watching!
The ambassadors will also
receive a free admission pass to
the tournament.
Our goal
is simple: for everyone to enjoy
good competition watching children
play basketball without feeling
uncomfortable threatened or angered
by behavior that would not be
tolerated in any other social
setting.
Please
join us in this effort to restore
the fun, and integrity of youth
sports for the sake of the kids.
They are watching us, and the impact
goes well beyond the court.
We welcome your comments or
suggestions. ►

Sincerely,
Natalie Moultrie
