Gym etiquette
Let's review a few items that will keep everyone happy:
1. Start and end your practice on time.
2. Do not arrive more than 5 minutes early for practice.
3. If you do arrive early, take a seat (parents too) and be quiet. Do not run/walk around the gym while another team has the practice time. Do not play with balls: No passing, bumping, dribbling, shooting etc.
4. If you talk to your team after practice, take it outside or take a few minutes before the end of your practice to address your team.
5. Pick up after yourselves.
6. If a parent is late picking up a child after practice and day care is closed, do not leave the child with the next team coming in. If any parent or guardian is habitually late picking up a child, let me know.
7. At 6:00 PM, the school is closed. After 6:00 PM, enter and exit the gym from the side door only. Always assume that the alarm is turned on after 6:00 PM. No one is allowed upstairs to check lost and found, get a book from a locker after 6:00 PM, or to exit the gym from the lobby. If any child or parent trips the alarm and the police are called to investigate, that parent may have to pay a $500 fine for a false alarm.
Thanks everyone,
