Code of Conduct for Spectators

In order to foster a sense of Good Sportsmanship, LMVSC has developed a code of conduct for Coaches, Parents/Spectators, and Players.  It is important for each of these groups to read and understand the content and intent of the code. Only by understanding the basic elements of good sportsmanship, will the game be enjoyable for all who participate in this sport.
