Mission Statement STMA JO’s program is committed to the development and promotion of girl’s volleyball within the St. Michael-Albertville area. The program provides an opportunity for girls ages 10 through 17 to play volleyball year round, thus allowing them to learn new skills and develop skills already acquired. The goals of STMA JO’s coaches goes further than just teaching volleyball skills, but includes teaching important life skills such as responsibility and teamwork. The program also emphasizes the importance of good sportsmanship, teamwork, and individual achievements within a fun, competitive, and safe environment.
Vision for STMA Juniors • Continue to raise the level of play and competitiveness • Level of training/coaching • Competitive scheduling • Physical training for health and performance Josh Malin- Malin Enterprises, LLC http://www.malinfitness.com • Provide opportunities for the maximum number of STMA volleyball athletes
On the Court Player Expectations • Be ready to be challenged and pushed • If you just want to hang out with your friends, this isn’t the right place for you • Take ownership of your development and choices • Getting better – coaches part, players part • Commit to the team • Manage all commitments so that team doesn’t miss you unnecessarily • Maximize opportunities • Mentally prepared for practice • Take advantage of physical training
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT 1. I will treat all STMA teammates, coaches, and STMA parents with respect. 2. I will show fairness and respect towards all opponents (players and coaches,) spectators, officials, and facility staff. 3. I agree to respect the property of others (teammates, hotels, gyms, locker rooms, vans and cars, restaurants…) and to pay for all damages for which I am responsible.
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT Cont 4. I agree to NEVER leave the site of a STMA event without the knowledge and permission of my coach. This includes practice/playing sites, restaurants, hotels, etc. 5. I agree to be responsible for knowing, and following through with, these details pertaining to my team and self: • The time and location of each week’s events • Knowledge of my own travel plans • Being on time to all events (entirely ready at start time) • Bringing a ball to every practice and tournament • Informing my coach, at the very latest, by the WEDNESDAY BEFORE if I will not be attending an event or will be late or leave early relating to any weekend event(s) • Notify the coach ahead of time if I will not be attending a practice due to illness, conflicts, or academic concerns
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT Cont 6. I agree to NOT be in possession of, or use, drugs, tobacco, alcohol, or any other illegal substance while involved in any part of any STMA VOLLEYBALL. I also agree not to be found in the presence of these substances; if I am I will be found equally at fault. 7. I agree to NOT engage in any illegal activities of any sort. 8. I understand that VIOLATION OF THESE CODES (#6 and #7) will result in strict disciplinary action including likely dismissal from the team. This disciplinary action will be at the discretion of the STMA Juniors Board. In case of dismissal, there will be NO financial reimbursement.
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT Cont 9. I agree to meet my financial requirement IN FULL. • Payments are due by the schedule of payments set by STMA...unless the director or treasurer has approved an alternative payment plan. Failure to abide by the terms of payment plan will result in termination. This includes the $200 volunteer check. • Payments not turned in on the night of the Player/Parent/Coach meeting will be charged a $35 late fee.
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT Cont 10. I agree to the STMA Juniors Refund Policy. Refund Policy- STMA Juniors WILL NOT offer any refunds for club volleyball athletes once the season has started since the loss of an athlete cannot be easily replaced once all club athletes have committed to their teams. Therefore, STMA Juniors defines the start of the season as the team’s first practice and not the team’s first tournament. • However, should an athlete become injured and unable to finish the season the club may decide to prorate the remaining fee based on expenses incurred by STMA Juniors on behalf of your daughter, but this is at the discretion of the board. • Legal action may occur if payment policies are not followed as stated.
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT Cont 11. I agree to this attendance policy: • 2ndunexcused absence (practices or tournaments) will put me on probationary status. • 3rd unexcused absence will result in repercussions, possibly including dismissal without reimbursement. NOTE: This is a NEW policy; the purpose is to train DEDICATED players who will attend all required practices and tournaments. • Examples of an excused absence are sickness, school functions, and family vacations. If you are unclear of this please contact the STMA Juniors Board. • 24 hour notice must be given for an absence to be excused (excluding illness). • I agree that the decision of the STMA Juniors Board will be final in these matters of probation or dismissal, and agree that they reserve the right to use their discretion on a case-to-case basis. • Habitual tardiness to events will result in probationary status, including possible dismissal.
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT Cont 12. I agree to this Line of Communication • This is one of the most important areas for every player, parent, fan and coach to understand. This line of communication will be strictly followed within our program. • If your daughter is having frustrations or problems of any kind: • 1st step: Player arranges meeting with coach outside of practice/tournaments. • 2nd step: Parents may contact the coaching coordinator or your daughter’s coachby email or by phone. It will be determined at that time if a meeting to discuss the matter is appropriate. • If so, this meeting will include: the player, the parent/guardian, the team coach and the Coaching Coordinator from the program • 3rd Step: Contact Chair of the JO Board IMPORTANT: Parents or players may not approach the coaches before or after practices and matches about an issue unless a meeting has been scheduled. If the matter is related to a specific incident, match, or event, then the parents and/or athlete must wait until 24 hours after the specific incident, match, or event before contacting.
CONTRACT AND INDIVIDUAL CODE OF CONDUCT Cont Volunteers are vital to our program. The tournaments that we host during the season are essential fundraisers for our program. Each player’s family is expected to work a minimum of 4 hours total for single player families and 6 hours total for multiplayer families, during the tournament weekend. You will be asked to provide a $200 deposit check that will be destroyed after you have fulfilled your commitment. No players or students are allowed to work, nor are young children allowed to accompany parents at their work station. The board will distribute volunteer hours thru Dibbs in February. Board meeting participation, parent helpers, and chaperons will not be eligible for volunteer hours.
