I hereby pledge to live up to my
certification as a NYSCA Coach by following the
NYSCA Coaches Code of Ethics:
I will place the emotional and physical well
being of my players ahead of a personal desire
to win.
I will treat each player as an individual,
remembering the large range of emotional and
physical development for the same age group.
I will do my best to provide a safe playing
situation for my players.
I will promise to review and practice basic
first aid principles needed to treat injuries of
my players.
I will do my best to organize practices that
are fun and challenging for all my players.
I will lead by example in demonstrating fair
play and sportsmanship to all my players.
I will provide a sports environment for my
team that is free of drugs, tobacco, and
alcohol, and I will refrain from their use at
all youth sports events.
I will be knowledgeable in the rules of each
sport that I coach, and I will teach these rules
to my players.
I will use those coaching techniques
appropriate for all of the skills that I teach.
I will remember that I am a youth sports
coach, and that the game is for children and not
adults.
