Violation of this code will not be tolerated.
SPORTSMANSHIP
Everyone in the game, including the parents and spectators, should have a sense of fair play. Satisfaction for players, coaches, parents and spectators should come from watching athletes playing their hardest and doing their best. We should applaud and enthusiastically cheer good plays on both sides.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Any parent or spectator violating the Code of Conduct and Standards of Behavior will be banned from attending games for a specified or indefinite period of time based on a review and ruling by the lacrosse coaches and administration of each Planet Lacrosse affiliated league.
PARENTS' AND SPECTATORS' CODE OF CONDUCT
Be respectful of and do not embarrass a participant by yelling at players, coaches, officials, or other parents. You are expected to treat all participants with respect and dignity. By showing a positive attitude toward the game and all of its participants, the player will benefit. Refrain from the use of abusive, obscene, or profane language and gestures.
Know the rules of the game and support the officials on and off the field. This approach will help in the development and support of the game. Any criticism of the officials hurts the game. Encourage players to play by the rules.

Act appropriately; do not taunt or disturb other fans; enjoy the game together. Cheer and encourage fair play; profanity and objectionable cheers or gestures are offensive and will not be permitted.
Help provide a safe and fun environment. Throwing any items on the field or in the stands can cause injury to players, coaches and officials. Be responsible for your own safety. Be alert to prevent accidents from flying lacrosse balls and other avoidable situations.
