Hello [NAME],

This newsletter is simply intended to remind each of us of the commitment that we made at the beginning of the season regarding the No Tolerance Policy.   Please consider the items below when either playing, watching or coaching a game at CPYL as whether we know it or not, each of us are being watched by innocent eyes, our children.  Keep in mind that violation of the NTP will result in ejection from the game and/or complex.  

CPYL No Tolerance Policy

The Cedar Park Youth League (CPYL) Board strives to make the baseball and softball experiences at CPYL ones that you and your children will remember for years to come as an enjoyable and exciting time. To help create this positive environment CPYL has established a strict “No Tolerance Policy” that everyone in the league is required to acknowledge and uphold.

¨      I acknowledge that I attended one of the leagues mandatory No Tolerance Parent meetings.

¨      I hereby pledge to provide positive support, care, and encouragement for my child participating in youth sports at CPYL. I will encourage good sportsmanship by demonstrating positive support for all players, coaches, and officials, at every game, practice or other CPYL Event.

¨      I will place the emotional and physical well being of my child ahead of my desire to win.

¨      I will support coaches and officials working with my child, in order to encourage a positive and enjoyable experience for all. I will avoid “coaching” from the stands.

¨      I will treat other players, coaches, fans and officials with respect regardless of race, sex, creed or ability.

¨      I will help my child enjoy the youth sports experience by doing whatever I can, such as being a respectful fan, assisting with coaching, participating in team events and helping to maintain the CPYL complex.

¨      I understand the following items/actions are not tolerated at CPYL or CPYL sponsored activities:

o        Alcoholic products

o        Smoking

o        Use of profanity

o        Use of unsportsmanlike comments towards managers, coaches, umpires, parents and children, including taunting and "trash talking" during a game

o        Yelling at, threatening or physically attacking a league official, umpire, manager, coach, parent or child

o        Entering the field of play or dugout without permission of the manager, umpire or league official

o        Mistreatment of CPYL property or facilities to include equipment, fields and buildings

¨      I understand that the umpires are here for the kids and the game. I will not question their calls or make unsportsmanlike comments towards the umpire. I understand that the league provides guidelines for the team manager to address umpires. I will not approach an umpire during or after a game to question their calls.

¨      I understand that I should provide guidance to this policy to family and friends that I invite to CPYL.

¨      I understand that if I fail to follow the items listed above that I could be ejected from the CPYL property.

¨      I understand that if I am ejected that I must leave the CPYL complex immediately. I understand that depending on the cause for ejection that I may be suspended for a minimum of one game and up to permanent suspension from the league based on the “CPYL Policy Regarding Ejection of a Player, Parent or Coach from a Game”.

¨      I understand that until I sign the “No Tolerance Policy” that my child may not participate in games or practices.

See you at the park
