Player Contract & Code of Conduct

Player Contract

I, as a parent and player, acknowledge receipt of the Commitment Letter and agree to the BHC organizational statements below and payment schedule that are outlined within the general team information page. I also acknowledge, should I decide to leave or asked to leave BHC under any circumstances, that I will not be reimbursed for any funds (out of pocket or fundraised) that are in my account when I leave. Should any conflicts arise, BHC practices, games, tournaments, etc. are the first sports priority, and BHC will take precedent over all others.

If your payment schedule is not current, then you agree that your daughter’s playing will be impacted until your payment schedule is current.

I understand there are no guarantees that I will play the positions of my choice or specific individual positions and I agree to play where the coaches deem necessary for me to play, for the good of the team.

I commit to the entire schedule as presented by the Coaching Staff and will be in attendance at all scheduled practices, games and Team functions.

I accept the opportunity that is provided if I play for BHC and I am committed to attend all scheduled local and overnight travel tournaments.

Any player who leaves BHC for another team after being selected will have a mandatory probationary period, deem by the board and coaching staff for that particular age group, before being allowed to return to play for any BHC team in the future.

If I am unhappy with my impression of how my daughter is being utilized within the team make up, I am aware that I can discuss this openly with the Head Coach and Coaching staff, and if not satisfied with the results of that discussion, I can contract the President of the Organization or the Board of Directors for further discussion.
