I will teach all children to play fair and do their best.  I will positively support all managers, coaches and players.  I will respect the decisions of the umpire.  I will praise a good effort despite the outcome of the game.

- Little League Parent/Volunteer Pledge

1. I understand that being a part of a CVLL team means that my actions reflect positively and negatively on the league and the community.  I will refrain from making negative or profane comments about the game, coaches, umpires or teammates in the presence of my child or other league families.  I am aware that such comments can severely harm the overall Little League experience of our players and families.
2. I recognize how critical it is to lead by example with respect to sportsmanship.  No matter what other fans might do, my actions toward those involved in the game will be one of respect.  Even if an umpire makes what I believe to be a bad call, I will continue to respect the individual and the fact that he/she is a volunteer by keeping quiet and letting the team coaches address any concerns within the game.
3. I understand that I am putting my child at physical risk by arriving late to practices or games.  CVLL games are played at a high level of skill and competition.  It is critical that players have enough time to stretch and properly warm up prior to the start of play.  Having my child arrive on time also shows respect for the coaches who so willingly give their personal time to the league and the development of its players. 
4. I will not confuse my child by yelling out game instruction from the stands.  Part of respecting the game of baseball or softball is to allow the coaches of the team to properly implement their strategies and effectively communicate with their players at all times.  I will ensure that my comments are limited to encouraging my child and other players for both teams.

Please be advised that, per Little League rules, the umpire has the authority to remove any spectator from the park for offensive or unsportsmanlike behavior.  Such action may result in a suspension of the individual, forfeiture of the team’s game or additional action against the team/manager once an investigation is completed.

I agree to honor the CVLL Parent Code of Conduct in my actions and my words.
