Building a Positive Sports Experience for All

At Youth Sports & Fitness, we believe that sports should be fun, safe, and rewarding for every child. To create a positive experience, we ask all parents, players, and coaches to follow our sportsmanship guidelines and participation rules.

Sportsmanship Requirements

All parents and guardians must complete Sportsmanship Training before registering their child for Youth Sports. This ensures everyone understands the values of respect, teamwork, and fair play.

  • Pledge to promote positivity in youth sports and act as a role model to their child, as well as other participants and sports parents they meet.
  • Serve as an advocate for good sportsmanship and to keep fun and learning at the center of the youth sports experience.
  • Try to improve upon their youth sports knowledge so that they can be an informative leader in the youth sports community.

Additional resources can be found at the National Alliance for Youth Sports (NAYS) website. Registration with NAYS is optional for parents/guardians.
