2. I will attend every practice and meet that I can and will notify my coach if I cannot.

3. I will treat my coaches, other swimmers, officials, and fans with respect regardless of age, race, creed, color, gender or abilities and I will expect to be treated accordingly.

4. I will not engage in any kind of unsportsmanlike behavior with any official, coach, swimmer, or other parent/guardian such as arguing, booing, and taunting; refusing to shake hands; or using profane language or gestures.

5. I will encourage my own parents or guardians to engage in good sportsmanship.

6. I will expect to be treated fairly over the course of a season with regard to meet entries and recognize that certain meets are more competitive than others.
