PIEDMONT FOOTBALL LEAGUE SPORTSMANSHIP RULES

1. All coaches must show good sportsmanship at all times. Any ejection for unsportsmanlike conduct will result in the ejected person being removed from the park immediately. The violator must sit out the following game and may not have any interaction with the team until the full suspension is observed. A coach is not allowed to return to the park as a spectator for the game in which they are “sitting out”.

2. Coaches are responsible for their own fans. If a parent or fan is displaying behavior that is inappropriate, coaches will be given an opportunity to calm them down. If the behavior continues, the fan will be removed from the park and subject to the same penalty as an ejected coach.

3. There are no alcoholic beverages or illegal drugs allowed in the park. Violators will be prosecuted and/or removed from the park immediately.

4. Parents and Fans will NOT be allowed to “tailgate” or cook on the SCPRD property. Because of past problems with fans and parents selling food, this is no longer allowed! Both cold and hot foods will be available for purchase at the concession stand.

5. SCPRD and the Piedmont Football League have a zero tolerance policy in regards to poor sportsmanship. Any coach or fan heard using loud profanity will be removed from the property.

6. If an official gives a coach a warning about their behavior – they need to heed the warning and adjust their behavior immediately.

If questions arise about a call – or a “non” call, the coach must calmly ask the official. Coaches who lose emotional control will be ejected!
