LEAP F.C. Children’s Code of Conduct

 I. Introduction

Hi LEAP F.C. Friends!

Welcome to our special club where we play, learn, and grow together. Our club is a place where everyone can feel happy, safe, and part of a big team.

To make sure we all know how to be the best team members, we have something called the "Code of Conduct." It's like a guidebook that helps us remember how to be nice to each other, listen to our coaches, and have the most fun we can.


Here's what's important in our club:

1. Being Kind and Respectful: We treat everyone like friends.

2. Following the SHOW TEETH Philosophy: We learn to be strong like a lion and happy like when we smile.

3. Listening to the LEAP Rules: We follow the rules, so everyone feels good and safe.


Our Code of Conduct is like a handshake or a pinky promise. It says, "I'm ready to be the best I can be at LEAP F.C.!"

II. Code of Conduct for Children

Being part of our club means we get to explore and enjoy lots of fun things together. Here's what we promise to do so that everyone can have a great time:

 A. Commitment to LEAP's Core Values

1. Understanding and Embracing the SHOW TEETH Philosophy:

  • Growl Strong: We'll be brave and never give up, just like a lion. We'll face challenges with courage and always keep trying.

  • Smile Bright: We'll enjoy our time, smile, and laugh, because having fun is what LEAP F.C. is all about!

  • Fist Pounds All Around: Whether we're saying hello, goodbye, congratulations, or cheering each other up, we'll give fist pounds to our friends and coaches at LEAP. It's our special way to connect, celebrate, and be there for each other. 

2. Following the LEAP PBIS (Rules for Good Behavior):

  • Being Nice and Respectful: We'll treat our friends nicely and listen to our coaches.

  • Learning from Mistakes: If we forget the rules, we'll learn from it and try to do better next time.


3. Emphasizing Leadership, Adventure, Energy, Perseverance:

  • Being Leaders: We'll be good examples for our friends.

  • Going on Adventures: We'll explore new games and ideas together.

  • Full of Energy: We'll put our whole heart into everything we do.

  • Never Giving Up: Even when things are hard, we'll keep trying.

Remember, LEAP F.C. is our club, and we all make it special by being the best we can be. We'll growl strong, smile bright, and have loads of fun!


 B. General Conduct

Being part of our club means being kind, friendly, and responsible. Here's how we can all be great team players:

1. Respect for Coaches, Teammates, and Yourself:

  • Listening Ears: When our coaches or friends are talking, we listen and show we care.

  • Kind Words: We always use nice words with everyone, even ourselves.

2. Teamwork, Friendliness, and Fun Competition:

  • Helping Hands: We work together like a team, helping each other.

Remember, at LEAP F.C., we're all on the same team. We'll show our teeth with big smiles and growls of courage. Let's be the best we can be!

 C. Participation and Engagement

Playing and learning together is what we do here. Let's make sure we give our best and have the most fun:

1. Join in the Fun:

  • Try Everything: Whether it's a game or a cool craft, jump in and try. You might find a new favorite!

  • All In: When we're at the club, we give it our all. No sitting on the sidelines!

2. Be Here and Now:

  • Screen-Free Zone: Our club time is for playing, not watching screens. Our phones and tablets take a break so we can have fun.

  • Eyes on the Adventure: We keep our eyes on what we're doing and the friends we're doing it with.

3. Grow Big and Strong:

  • Challenge Accepted: Sometimes things might seem hard, but that's okay! We grow by trying new things and pushing ourselves.

  • Your Personal Best: It's not about being the best; it's about being YOUR best. So give it your all and see how amazing you can be.

So, LEAP F.C. Team, are you ready to play, grow, and have the best time ever? Remember, we're all in this together, and every single one of us can shine.
