TROSKY ARIZONA CODE OF CONDUCT

As a parent, you play a critical role in shaping your child’s experience and the culture of our program. By registering your child for Trosky Arizona Baseball, you agree to uphold the following standards:

• Encourage all players with positive reinforcement, regardless of performance or outcome.
• Trust the coaches’ decisions regarding playing time, strategy, and player development. Our staff is committed to each player’s growth and the team’s success.
• Refrain from sideline coaching. Allow the coaches to do their jobs and instruct the players. Mixed messages can be confusing and counterproductive.

• Set the right example for players by maintaining a respectful and positive attitude.
• Respect umpires, officials, opposing teams, and all participants, regardless of the outcome of the game.
• No taunting, criticizing, or negative comments directed at players, coaches, officials, or other spectators.

• If you have a concern, wait 24 hours before addressing it with a coach. This allows time for perspective and ensures a productive conversation.
• Use appropriate channels for concerns - speak directly with the coach or program director, rather than voicing complaints publicly or among other parents.
• Respect program decisions and recognize that all decisions are made in the best interest of the players and the team.

• Ensure your child attends all practices, games, and team events on time.
• Support your child’s commitment to the team by fostering responsibility, punctuality, and a strong work ethic.
• Understand that baseball is a team sport, and every player contributes to the team’s success through dedication and effort.

• Treat all facilities, equipment, and property with respect and care. 
• Encourage your child to uphold the values of the program on and off the field. Their behavior reflects not only on them but also on their team and the Trosky Arizona community. 
• Follow facility guidelines and clean up after yourself at games, practices, and events.

• Remember that player development, teamwork, and a love for the game are the top priorities. Winning is important, but growth and effort matter more.
• Avoid placing undue pressure on your child to perform. Instead, focus on their progress, learning, and enjoyment of the sport.
• Support a culture of hard work, resilience, and positivity, both in victory and in defeat.

• Respect your coaches and follow their instructions. They are here to help you succeed.
• Be a good teammate - support your peers, celebrate their success, and hold yourself to the same standard.
• Show sportsmanship at all times. Never argue with umpires, opponents, or teammates.

• Be a leader on and off the field. Your actions reflect on you, your team, and Trosky Arizona Baseball. 
• Take care of team equipment, facilities, and uniforms - they are a privilege, not a right.

• Be present at all practices, games, and team events. If you must miss, notify your coach in advance.
