CHARMERS LACROSSE CLUB PLAYER CONTRACT

I, ______, have been offered a position on, and agree to join Charmers Lacrosse Club for the purposes of improving my game, exposing myself to college recruiters, gaining a positive team experience, and advancing the success of the team. To accomplish this, I understand that my teammates need to be able to depend on me and trust my actions.

  • Display good sportsmanship to opponents.

  • Endeavor to have an enjoyable, memorable experience.

I understand that Charmers Lacrosse Club (CLC) will operate under the following policies:

Lacrosse, being a TEAM sport, must practice as a team. Therefore all players should expect to attend all practices with the following exceptions:

Family situation

Illness

Date conflict (with prior notice)

Another team practice (during winter, spring, or fall only)

Players at a club level need to be exposed to college recruiters at tournaments. All players must plan to attend no less than 75% of the tournaments that CLC participates in. Teammates depend on each other to be at these events.

Players are expected to attend practices on time. Lateness to practice will result in team repercussions to be decided by the coaches.

Parents, guests, and players of CLC will conduct themselves in a positive manner. This means that there will be not taunts or berating of players, coaches, or fans of either team; and no adverse comments to referees during lacrosse events. Any reported incidents at games or other events will result in a written warning for the first offense, player temporary suspension from team for the second offense, and player permanent dismissal for third offense.

Starting lineup will be determined by a mix of factors, including; practice attendance, attitude, skill, and ability. No players should expect to start without attention to these factors. Likewise, players who perform well to these factors will have plenty of playing time. Positions and playing time will NOT be determined by relationships, money, or any other factors.

The goal of this club is to provide its players with the tools and situations that will allow them to reach their fullest potential. It is important that the stated policies be understood and enforced to allow each person to have an understanding of their place with the team.

We ask that parents be part of this process and send a joint message by supporting the team and its policies.
