It is further promised that the coach will at all times act as a teacher who is responsible for the safety and well-being of each player on his team. The coach will be a role model both on and off the court.
  • The coach will make every effort to provide as much playing time as possible to every member of the team while realizing that the development of players is more important that winning games.
  • The players will at all times behave in a proper and sportsmanlike manner. Players can be dismissed from the team without warning if they present a serious discipline problem. Lightning enjoys an excellent reputation and no player or parent will be permitted to jeopardize or detract from that positive reputation.
  • Parents must always act in a responsible, respectable and sportsmanlike manner. A Lightning parent is never permitted to speak in a negative way to an opposing team, our own team, coaches or officials. If at any time, a Lightning parent acts in an improper or disrespectful way, the parent and child may be asked to leave the organization.
  • The administration of Lightning Basketball promises to provide a safe, sportsmanlike and fair setting where every player is provided with the opportunity to be successful.
