 Athlete Code of Conduct

 Your participation in the Holt Jr Rams Football program is a privilege and should be treated as such.  While you are a member of a HJR Football team you are representing yourself, your team, your community and all of the people that wore that uniform before you.  The expectations for you are high but not out of reach.  Know that when you are a member of this team other students, teachers, coaches, parents and the community are observing your conduct.  

 The Holt Jr Rams Football board and coaching staff is here to teach and support each of you as you learn the game of football.   It is our responsibility to keep you safe and make sure that you have fun.  Your coaches will volunteer many hours of their time to teach you proper technique and the fundamentals of the game and for that you will promise them that:

1.   I will always be a good teammate that will show support and never criticize others
