Letter of Commitment

Dear Parent,

The purpose of this letter is to inform you that your daughter or son has signed up for the current sports season and

to establish a level of commitment from both you and your child. Because we do not want to cut any players and

realize that many kids also participate in many different after school activities, we want to ensure that your child is

dedicated and committed to this team and that he or she makes a fair effort to their coaches and teammates.

Please read below and sign this form to indicate that you and your child understand our expectations and will

commit to the St Mary Athletics Program.

1. You agree to place the academics of your child ahead of sports and will support the school and coaches in

enforcing the eligibility rules.

2. You agree that your child will make every effort to participate in every practice and attend every game.

3. You agree to support the Athletic Program by working shifts in the concession stand and at the scorer’s

table as needed. The specific requirements will be worked out by the Concessions Manager. A $100

deposit in the form of a check made payable to St.Mary will be made in advance of the season. If volunteer

duties are not fulfilled the check will be cashed and it will be considered a donation to the athletic program.

4. You agree to conduct yourself with dignity and respect towards all coaches, school staff and other parents.

You further agree to promote good sportsmanship in your child at all practices and games.

5. You agree to approach the Athletic Director first with questions or concerns regarding the coaching staff.

6. You agree that playing time in games is determined by the coach and that playing time decisions will not be

second guessed or criticized.

7. You agree to refrain from coaching from the sidelines. You agree that this applies not only to parents but

any and all spectators who come to watch your child play. You agree that coaching from the sidelines will

result in your child not playing in the next scheduled game(s).

8. You agree there is a 24 hour period after any game in which you will not approach the coach and/or AD to

discuss any game related issues. This also applies to negative comments made on social media such as

Facebook, InstaGram, and/or Twitter, etc. Failure to comply will result in your child being suspended from

the team.

9. You agree that failing to comply with any of the above will compromise your child’s participation in this

sports season.

We will make every effort to make this system as fair as possible and that your family has an enjoyable experience.

Any questions? Call Scott McGlade (734) 748-1041 or email: scottmcglade@charter.net

I agree to all of the points outlined in the Letter of Commitment for the upcoming sports season.
