Sportsmanship
Conference USA and its member institutions are committed to an atmosphere where the principles and standards of sportsmanship are at the forefront. The Conference understands that, as student-athletes, the sense of fair play is critical to your experience. For that reason, the presidents, athletics administrators and faculty athletics representatives (FARs) created a sportsmanship policy that supports and holds everyone involved in Conference USA competition accountable to the highest standards of sportsmanship.
At the heart of sportsmanship, there shall be a strong commitment to respecting not only the participants but also the officials. To demonstrate that commitment, the “The Principles and Standards of Sportsmanship” policy details the ideals of sportsmanship and conduct standards for participants in the league. Before participating in competition student-athletes must sign a copy of the Confirmation of Receipt and Commitment form indicating an understanding of expected behavior. This will help the Conference ensure your experience as a student-athlete will be one that involves respect, fair play and appreciation for your efforts.
Thank you for everything you do to help your institution and the Conference provide the best experience possible for all individuals involved.
