San Francisco Riptide

San Francisco Lacrosse Club’s mission is to endow our players with a love for the game of lacrosse, to develop lacrosse skills and knowledge, and to build strong teams that exhibit the highest level of sportsmanship.

As a player on a SFLC team, I agree to the following:

To arrive at practice and games on time, ready to play and contribute to the team.

To respect the coaches, players and SFLC by following the ROOTS of the game:

•  Rules    I will learn how the game is played and try my best on the field at all times.
• Opponents   I will always be respectful of my opponents even if they are disrespectful to me.
• Officials   I understand that the referee is doing the best job he can and often sees or knows things that I do not. I will never talk back to a referee. I will be cooperative and respectful even if I don’t understand or disagree with a call.
• Teammates   I agree to encourage and support my teammates at all times. I will do my best to make sure that every player feels like an important member of the team. I will treat everyone with courtesy and respect.
• Self   I will be a good sport. I will play hard, and win or lose with dignity. I will not blame anyone for a loss. I will hold myself to the highest standards.

I understand that if I do not respect the ROOTS of San Francisco Lacrosse Club that the coach may ask me to sit out, bench me or even remove me from the team.
