Code Of Sportsmanship The Fox Valley Association believes that sportsmanship is important for participants and spectators alike. The member schools of the Fox Valley Association therefore pledge themselves to encourage positive displays of sportsmanship at all co-curricular activities. The following principles have been adopted to reflect this strong belief: 1. Interscholastic competition exists for its educational value. Although winning is important, the prime objective is to appreciate the educational and athletic development of our young people. 2. Spectators and participants are all guests at this educational experience and have a responsibility to uphold the ideals of good manners and sportsmanship. 3. We recognize that game officials do their best to make quick, fair, and unbiased decisions, and should be treated with respect and authority. 4. Every competitor is worthy of our respect and should be treated with courtesy. A true competitor is humble in victory and steadfast in defeat. |
