·       Refrain from using violence, unfriendly language, or insults to others.

·       Be generous when I win and gracious when I lose.

·       Obey the rules of the game and always work for the good of the team.

I also agree that if I fail to abide by the aforementioned rules and guidelines, I will be subject to disciplinary action levied by the Carthage Little League Board of Directors that could include but is not limited to the following:
