Care of Uniforms

Extras related to dress:

A good pair of basketball shoes are recommended for the season. Try to avoid black soles as they mark up the gym floor.

A pair of white socks

Stay with Schindewolf colors: navy, silver, white, black

We do not want a lot of extra add ons – such as multi color shoe laces, ribbons, feathers.

More…

No jewelry of any kind is allowed in the sport of basketball- not a good time to get your ears pierced.

Avoid getting fancy nails during season- makes it more difficult to shoot and catch the ball.

No type of metal/plastic can be in your hair.

IMPORTANT

Pick-up and drop off your child by the tennis courts.

Athletes must enter the building through the south side tennis court door.

Calendar-Boys

Monday games

Pickup for practice and games at tennis courts

Transportation to and from the Games

All athletes are expected to ride the bus to and from the games unless a parent signs them out at the game with the coach. Under no circumstances will athletes be allowed to leave without parental supervision.

Signing Out Your Athlete

At away games – sign your athlete out on the scorebook –

Please wait until the coach has had a chance to get their next team started and wrapped up the game just played.

Practice and Game day pick up

Please be on time to pick up your child. We don’t leave until the last child is gone. Please make arrangements if you can not make it. Pick up at the tennis courts.

Discipline

ISS – May not play or practice on day assigned.

Missed practices diminishes playing time.

Unexcused absences requires additional work after practice.

Continued discipline problems will result in removal from team. Parent will be called first.

A Teams & B Teams

A teams and B teams are subject to change throughout

the season.

Playing Time

Each athlete will be given an opportunity to play each game provided they have been successful in practice.Equal playing time is not a guarantee.

Running Up the Score

Klein rules state:

Girls- do not press when 15 pts. ahead

Boys- do not press when 20 pts. ahead

In keeping with the spirit of developing young players, we will avoid running up the score just for the sake of doing so. Players will be encouraged to set up plays and run through offensive sets in situations where we might be dominating the game. This is a difficult task for all of us, but we will make every attempt to maintain both teams sense of dignity in a unbalanced game.

Sportsmanship (for the Old and the Young)

On and off the courts and in the bleachers.

We should respect the efforts of all participants- both our own team members and the opponents. Refrain from making negative statements about players from our team and the opponents as well. Remember, these are young adolescents and they are someone’s child. What you say will be heard and can greatly impact a child.

Coaching from the bleachers:

Please refrain from speaking with your child while at a

game. We want the athletes to focus on what is happening

on the court.

Referees and Coaches

Please also refrain from speaking to the referees before, during, or after the game.

If you need to speak to the coach, please email or call to set up a conference. After a game is not a good time.

Removal From Game

If you are removed from a game, you will then have to meet with the principal and the coach to be able to return to another game. And as a general reminder all parents have signed a code of conduct form on the physical form.

Athletic Bench Expectations

Athletes are expected to sit behind the bench of the team playing and support them.

No running back and forth to the concession stand/restroom during the game.

The team playing will always huddle with their coach at the conclusion of a game for closing comments.

Non School Activities

U.I.L. activities take precedence over non-school activities wherever possible

Please notify the coach well in advance of possible conflicts

High School Games

Athletes are encouraged to attend the high school games whenever possible. One of the best tools for learning the game is to watch the older teams in action.
