When In Florida, Do As JOEADVANTAGE Does ...
Just pulled this off the NFHS forum from JOEADVANTAGE, who, I believe, is from Florida. Take your pick:
The NFHS and (insert your state here) require officials to enforce sportsmanship rules. High school athletics emphasize positive values. All of us have worked hard to create a sense of teamwork, respect, responsibility and perspective. We remind you that we expect good behavior and will quickly penalize misconduct. We encourage and appreciate your help. Let this competition reflect mutual respect among all participants and officials. Coaches please certify that your players are legally equipped and uniformed according to NFHS rules. Good luck and have a great contest.
The FHSAA requires officials to enforce all rules regarding unsportsmanlike conduct by players and coaches. Violators will be ejected. It is strongly suggested that you remind teammates and coaches of this policy. Additionally this is a reminder that jewelry is not allowed, and jerseys must be tucked in during play. Coaches, do you certify that your players are properly equipped and will demonstrate sportsmanlike behavior during todays contest?
