Program Expectations

Commitment Matters

Not all teams participate in every league, tournament, or exhibition event. Coaches consult with parents to determine the best schedule for each team.

  • Attend consistently
  • Work hard and compete respectfully
  • Demonstrate sportsmanship
  • Represent GYBA positively
