Parent Code of Conduct

At CSBOXLA, we believe that lacrosse is more than just a game — it’s a tool for building character, community, and lifelong respect. As a parent, guardian, or supporter of a CSBOXLA athlete, you play a vital role in shaping our culture. By participating in our programs, you agree to uphold the following standards:

Be a Positive Representative of Our Community

• Support all athletes, coaches, officials, and families with respect — regardless of team or outcome.
• Celebrate effort, improvement, and sportsmanship as much as results.
• Represent CSBOXLA with class at home and on the road — our behavior reflects on the entire lacrosse community.

Support, Don’t Coach

• Let the coaches coach. Avoid shouting instructions during games or practices.
• Focus on encouragement and effort — help your player grow through challenges.
• Trust the process. Development happens over time through repetition, failure, and learning.

Respect Officials and the Game

• Accept referee decisions as part of the game — no yelling at officials.
• Help us teach athletes to play with integrity and resilience, even when calls don’t go our way.
• Promote a culture of accountability, not blame.

Be Involved, Not Overbearing

• Volunteer, cheer, and help where you can — we are a community-driven organization.
• Ask questions respectfully and through the proper channels when needed.
• Support all players, not just your own.

Help Us Grow the Game with Honor

• Encourage inclusiveness, teamwork, and effort at every level — from youth to adult.
• Model the values we expect from our athletes: commitment, respect, and humility.
• Recognize that we’re building something bigger than wins — we’re building leaders.

By following this code, you help CSBOXLA create a healthy, competitive, and empowering environment for every athlete, coach, and family. Thank you for being a valued part of our mission to grow the game the right way.
