PURCELL DRAGON FANS!
The OSSAA has enacted a new rule (Suspension from Athletic Activities for Unsporting Behavior Rule) in efforts to improve sportsmanship at HS & MS athletic events.
Any "egregious" unsportsmanlike behavior by Coaches, Players, or Fans, two or more time in the same season / same sport will cause the SUSPENSION of the Team and/or the individual from the rest of the season.
The OSSAA cited the following examples as some "egregious" unsportsmanlike behavior:
-Fans constantly verbally attacking officials.
-Fans physically attacking officials.
-Fans attacking other fans at athletic events.
-Coaches physically attacking or verbally berating officials.
-Players getting into fights with other players while shaking hands at the end of the contest.
-Student sections verbally chanting inappropriate or demeaning chants at individuals, teams, or officials.
We are truly blessed with INCREDIBLE FANS that support our young people in their sports, activities, and all they do. Please keep helping our young people by POSITIVELY supporting them at athletic contests.
Go Dragons!
