For each new school year, students joining one of the extra-curricular sports teams will be required to renew their commitment as a student athlete. Athletes will receive a paper version to be agreed to and signed by the parent/guardian and themselves. Please ensure the contract is returned to the Athletic Director before the first game. The specific expectations can be reviewed below.

Expectations

  • You are a student first and an athlete second.
  • If teachers are not satisfied that you are working to your potential, you may be removed from participating until improvement is shown.

● Any player who has missed classes during the day will not compete in evening activities, except for players absent due to medical appointments.

  • Show appropriate behaviour towards school staff and other students.
  • Demonstrate cooperation, responsibility, and a positive attitude.
  • Follow the Safety Guidelines for Interschool Athletics as provided by KVMS and ASD-W.
  • Commit to all practices and competitions. Be sure to communicate with the coach if you are not able to make a practice or game.
  • Ensure team fees are paid on time.
  • Display respectful behaviour towards coaches, teammates, game officials, and opponents.
  • Applaud good plays by our team and the opponents.
  • Take good care of uniform and equipment given for player use.
  • At the last competition of the season return the uniform to the coach. A fee can be charged and/or participation in another activity withheld if the uniform is not returned.
  • Parents/Guardians must make the transportation arrangements for travelling to and from practices and games.

Remember, as an athlete, you are representing yourself and Keswick Valley Memorial School. Your conduct and sportsmanship should always reflect on you and the school in the best possible way. Coaches are expected to remove players who cannot demonstrate a high level of fair play.

Student athletes are to agree and adhere to the above expectations and understand that if at any time they do not follow the terms of this contract, their participation in practices and games may be restricted or terminated.
