Heritage Lacrosse 2015 Team Rules and Player Expectations

You are a student-athlete. Not an athlete-student. The reason you are in school is to get an education, not to play lacrosse. The lessons learned in the classroom and on the field will make

you a better young man. Understand that your position as a student/athlete is a privilege and not a right.

You will advise the coaches of any problems that you are having in any classes. We will do everything we can to help you with these problems. Failing is not an option!

The only time the team runs sprints is for grades. Our practices are high intensity enough that we do not need

to run sprints I find it a waste of time. But as the current players know the whole team runs for individuals poor grades.

 

Juniors, Sophomores and Freshman players cannot make varsity if you are ineligible at the time of tryouts. Seniors will not play until

their grades are fixed.

Take your academics very seriously. It is important to establish relationships with your teachers that show them you are a conscientious student who is interested in more

than lacrosse. Should you miss class due to illness or another excused absence you will communicate this with the teacher your next day back and make arrangements to

make up any missed work.

Heritage Lacrosse 2015 Team Rules and Player Expectations

If you are found to be partaking of any alcohol, drugs, or tobacco you will be dealt with per the rules of the HHS code of conduct book depending on the violation,

each incident will be handled on a case by case basis based on prior record and the severity of

the incident between the coaching staff and athletic director. This means that the coaches might have a more severe penalty than the school or district

imposes.  

Social MediaRemember that what you post online has repercussions. The school does see it and in turn the coaches hear about it. Just remember you are representing yourself and your

school regardless of the channel you post on.

Practice is NOT optional if we do not here from you beforehand the player will be suspended. Repeated unexcused absences will result in a player being removed from a team.

We follow the Lombardi rule if practice starts at 5 that means everyone is there at 445. The senior class of 2014 did a great job of getting everyone ready by the time the coaches were there.

Leave everything non lacrosse related off the field, practice games should be your couple hours of being

Older players are encouraged to help younger guys out be a good teammate no need for criticism, alibis, or excuses.

Heritage Lacrosse 2015 Team Rules and Player Expectations

Our Bench

Be loud. Be positive. Stay in the game. Support your teammates. Focus on your opponents’ tendencies so when you enter the game you are prepared to play against them.

Have ALL of your equipment on and ready in case you need to enter the game.

Our Supporters

Parents, family members, and HHS fans are encouraged to be loud, positive, and supportive of all those involved in the game. Set good examples for the young men in

competition with the way you conduct yourselves on the sidelines. Fans have yet to get the referee to change his call. If you can’t conduct yourself in the proper manner you will be

asked to leave the competition site.

Parents and/or players are requested to address personal issues with the head coach in person

directly after practice sessions, or via e-mail or telephone, but NOT immediately following the game. This “cooling off” period will insure that the excitement of the moment will not

jeopardize the enjoyment of the experience win or loss. The coaches expect to hear from the players

if there is an issue. Please allow for this opportunity for your sons to advocate for themselves.
