Wrestling Program Code of Conduct & Expectations (Ages 5–18)

Purpose
Wrestling teaches discipline, respect, teamwork, and perseverance. To keep our program safe, fair, and positive, all wrestlers must follow these expectations.

Wrestler Expectations

Respect: Show respect to coaches, teammates, opponents, referees, and parents at all times. Use kind and encouraging words. No bullying, teasing, or negative talk.
Effort & Attitude: Always try your best, regardless of skill level or outcome. Arrive on time, ready to practice and learn. Accept feedback from coaches with a positive attitude.
Sportsmanship: Win and lose with respect and humility. Shake hands before and after matches. Celebrate victories without bragging; accept defeat without excuses.
Behavior: No fighting, roughhousing, or unsafe actions outside of instruction. No foul language, inappropriate gestures, or disrespectful conduct. Follow directions from coaches immediately.
Commitment: Attend practices and competitions consistently. Inform coaches in advance if unable to attend. Give full attention during practice—no distractions or misuse of equipment.
Health & Safety: Maintain good hygiene (clean gear, shower after practice, trim nails). Report injuries or illnesses to a coach right away. Never use drugs, alcohol, or tobacco.

Parent & Family Expectations
