House League Select: Mission & Policies


MISSION STATEMENT

To promote and develop Girl's Fastpitch Softball in the Municipality of Chatham-Kent, and to elevate the level of play to the highest caliber possible. Thru the beginning with fundamentals learned in House League, further refinement is obtained by more competitive play in House League Select play. We believe that through personal development both mentally and physically, a safer environment for competitive play is attained.

EXPECTATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Players

House League Select softball is a major commitment. You will be expected to attend tryouts, practices, league games and tournaments. These are all factors that must be considered when accepting a position on a House League Select team. As a player, you are making a commitment to the C.G.M.S.A., to your coaches and the other members of your team. It is your responsibility to give 100% at all times. You may not always agree with the coaching decisions but remember they are making decisions with the teams objectives in mind, which your part contributes to. House League Select Softball is a highly competitive sport and your position is earned during the tryouts and, every time you step onto the field. You will be given the opportunity to further develop your skills throughout the season.

Coaches

Coaches, like players are making a commitment too. The coaches are there to teach and refine player skills in order to assist their players in reaching their potential. A coach has the right to expect respect and commitment from their players, but must also extend similar courtesies to the players. A coach has a responsibility to ensure fair treatment of their players at all times, avoiding both favoritism and criticism. The coach has the right to coach their team without any interference.

Parents

A parent is making a substantial commitment too. Your commitment is your daughter's commitment. Practices, games and travel are all commitments of both your time and your money. Your commitment of support at games is even more crucial. You support the coaches, your daughter and the Team. Your comments and actions are reflected onto the team and game through your daughter. Please use the utmost discretion in sharing any adverse feelings regarding other players or coaching decisions in front of your daughter.

Problem Resolution

We understand that everyone has differences of opinion. As a board we have tried to make the expectations of our players, coaches and parents more clear. However, we must be able to communicate our differences in a fair and approachable manner. It will not benefit your daughter, the coach or the Association if we find out there is a major problem on a team at the end of the year, especially if no one has communicated this to someone who may have been able to resolve this at an earlier stage. We strongly urge you to discuss any concerns with the Team Manager or Coach first. If adequate resolution cannot be reached via this method we would greatly appreciate you contacting a member of the C.G.M.S.A. Board.
