Coaches code of conduct:

• Basketball is a game for happiness.
• The rules of Basketball should be regarded as mutual agreements, the spirit or letter of which no one should try to evade or break.
• Opposing teams and spectators are honored guests.
• No advantages except those of superior skill should be sought.
• Officials and opponents should be treated and regarded as honest in intentions.
• Official’s decisions should be accepted without looking angry, no matter how unfair they may seem.
• Winning is desirable, but winning at any cost defeats the purpose of the game.
• Losing can be a triumph when the team has given its best.
• The ideal is the greatest good to the greatest number.
• In Basketball, as in life, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
• Coaches are encouraged not to run the score up when their team is well ahead.  Instead, take this opportunity to try new lines, plays and skills with your players.
