Does anyone have a team rules template they would be willing to share? I’m looking to expand the coverage of my rules. Below are a few examples.
- Academic ineligibility - School Detention/suspension - Theft and vandalism - Possession or distribution of illegal substances/objects - Bullying - Inappropriate behavior (towards coaches, officials, spectators, teammates, school staff, etc.) - Unsportsmanlike conduct
These are some examples and as I am curious to see the range of incidents that some of you include. Do you have a point system that results in game and eventually suspension from team? Example 3 incidents result in dismissal from team.

Doesn't your school have an Athletic Code of Conduct or similar that covers all those bases for all sports?

I have (generally) found that the vast majority of issues are already handled by the school/district rules. Anything that the student does that would be in the list above would be dealt with by the school 1st. I get teachers asking me to "run Johnny for being a jerk", but generally if a kid has messed up the school gets to him first.
My team rule is 'be at the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing, all the time.' That is sufficient to cover unsportsmanlike conduct, comments, being late, missing practices, skipping a class to bop the girlfriend, etc. I was the rules guy for a youth league some time back. What I found was that the football stuff was minimal, 80 yard fields for example (space limitation). The majority of the rules were there because some coach had done something to get around the rules so they added more rules. The more rules they had the more time the spent trying to get around them, and the more time the league administration had to spend to monitor and enforce the rules. By the time I got there everyone was watching everyone for everything. I more rules I have the more I have to look out for and the more attention I/coaches have to pay to watching and enforcing rules. With the 'right place...' approach it's a simple set of questions - "Were you in the right place? Were you there at the right time? Were you doing the right thing?" If the answer to one of those is 'No' then they spin the 'Wheel of Opportunity' to determine what they get to do to repay the team for their error.
