Last night I ended not having a varsity game, but worked a JV game and watched the #1 ranked 3A girls team blow out the #9 ranked 3A girls team. Pretty impressive game. I got to look at the program, and on the back was a page of conduct expectations for fans I thought I'd share. I really liked the fact that they were specifically telling fans was was approprate and what is not. I don't totally agree with everything on the list, specifically jumping on the bleachers and the one about signs, but I thought it was a good list. I don't know if this is a conference specific thing or if we're doing it in other areas of the state, but here's what it says:

In this EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION these behaviors are NOT acceptable;
Disrespectful conduct, including profanity, obscene gestures or comments, offensive remarks of a sexual nature, or other actions that demean individuals or the event. Penalty-EJECTION
