TO ALL SMOKY HILL SHARKS SWIMMERS AND PARENTS:

The Smoky Hill Sharks are part of the Mountain Hi Swim League (MHSL) and as such, we adhere to the Policies and Procedures of the MHSL. Prior to the start of the season, we are required to give both swimmers and parents notice of the "Parent and Swimmer Code of Conduct" of the MHSL. We do ask that parents and their swimmers review this together so everyone is familiar with the expectations of the league.

PARENT AND SWIMMER CODE OF CONDUCT

Information, Policies and Procedures

Mountain Hi Swim League believes in the development of swimmers both athletically and individually. Mountain Hi Swim League will strive to instill and practice the values of what it takes to be a good sportsman. In order for us to achieve these goals, it will take a combination of coaches and parents to set good examples for swimmers. Mountain Hi Swim League has established and will enforce the following conduct guidelines:

ALL SWIMMERS:

• Must refrain from addressing remarks, except when made as expressions in the spirit of friendship and/or in good sportsmanship
• Never use foul language or obscene gestures
• Should always applaud other team's performance and should always shake hands at the end of the race
• Follow all rules of the hosting pool, including any item that could cause any chemical imbalance in the pool, i.e.: Jell-o
• Cooperate with the decision of the stroke judge, starter and meet referee.

ALL PARENTS:

• Must refrain from addressing remarks to any parent, coach, swimmer, stroke judge, timer, starter or meet referee or any other volunteer
• Will never use foul language or obscene gestures
• Should always applaud the other team's performance
• Follow rules of the hosting team pool
• Respect the coach's decisions and abilities, except in the case where it may cause injury to the team or swimmer
• Adherence to By-Law, Section IX. C. which reads: "Alcohol and tobacco products are not allowed on the swimming venue or in any areas where swimmers reside."

Any infraction or inappropriate behavior will need to be submitted to the Mountain Hi Swim League Board, at which time the Board will take the appropriate action.
