Rights and Responsibilities: We believe that keeping athletes and parents well informed encourages an environment which greatly reduces the potential for catastrophic injury. As a school district, we endorse the following statement from the American Medical Association committee on the medical aspects of sports (1959):
Bill of Rights for the Athlete: Participation in athletics is a privilege involving responsibilities and rights. The athlete has the responsibility to play fair, to give his/her best, to keep in training, to conduct oneself with credit to the sport and the school. In turn, the athlete has the right to optimal protection against injury as this may be assured through good technical instruction, proper regulation and conditions of play, and adequate health supervision.
Athletes should be among the best and most reliable students on campus. Athletes are reminded that they not only represent themselves, but their parents, coaches, school, and community.

Accommodations for Disabled Spectators
The Deer Valley Unified School District will provide reasonable accommodations for spectators with disabilities at sporting events. When a DISTRICT school hosts a major sporting event, and when rules are sent out to participating schools in advance, such rules shall include information in regard to spectator requests for disability related accommodations. In addition, when attending events hosted by other districts, DISTRICT athletic directors will seek disability accommodations in advance upon a DISTRICT spectator’s request. The Deer Valley Unified School District shall make every effort to accommodate all spectators with disabilities.
AIA Position Statement Supplements, Drugs and Performance Enhancing Substances
All AIA Member schools are required to annually communicate this AIA Position Statement on the use of supplements, drugs and performance enhancing substances to every participant in interscholastic activities. (See Article 14, Section 14.13.2)
The Arizona Interscholastic Association (AIA) views sport, and the participation of student-athletes in sport, as an activity that enhances the student-athlete’s well-being by providing an environment and stimulus that promotes growth and development along a healthy and ethically based path.
It is the position of the AIA that a balanced diet, providing sufficient calories, is optimal for meeting the nutritional needs of the growing student-athlete.
It is the position of the AIA that nutritional supplements are rarely, if ever, needed to replace a healthy diet.
Nutritional supplement use for specific medical conditions may be given individual consideration.
The AIA is strongly opposed to “doping”, defined as those substances and procedures listed on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s Prohibited List (www.wada-ama.org).
It is the position of the AIA that there is no place for the use of recreational drugs, alcohol or tobacco in the lifestyle of the student-athlete. The legal consequences for the use of these products by a student-athlete are supported by the AIA.
Athlete Health and Safety
1. Parents and athletes must accept a degree of risk from participation in sports. An
informed consent signature is required of both parent and athlete before participation in practice. The Informed Consent video is available to all parents and athletes on the district’s website @ http://www.dvusd.org/Page/11429.
2. Athletes who are mentally, emotionally, and physically conditioned for an activity are less susceptible to injury. Following are listed minimal health requirements that are considered shared responsibilities between parents, coaches, staff, and the athletes themselves:
a. Annual physical examinations performed by a qualified doctor are required before a student may participate in a sport. Many sports injuries occur because of inadequate screening before the season begins. This physical must be completed after March 1st to be eligible the following school year.
b. Athletes are expected to be drug free. Athletes will be informed about the dangers of mixing sports and drugs.
c. Parents and Student Athletes must also sign the “Code of Conduct” form which explains the consequences if an athlete is suspended from school for possession, or being under the influence of drugs or alcohol while in school or at school-sponsored events.
d. Workouts will be scheduled during cooler morning and evening hours when the weather is hot. Outside practices will be cancelled if the temperature plus the relative humidity totals more than 150.
e. Athletes will be acclimated to hot weather activity by carefully graduated practice schedules.
f. Adequate body fluid levels are critical. Water intake is to be encouraged before practice. Fluid loss and intake during practice is to be monitored.
g. Water breaks will be provided every twenty minutes during the hot weather season. The athlete’s water intake will not be limited.
h. Parents can assist coaches in watching for signs of trouble, particularly the determined athlete in any sport who may not want to report discomfort.
i. Athletes are not allowed to use dehydration devices. j. Athletes may be provided with recommendations for off-season conditioning
programs, including information on nutrition and motivation. k. Athletes will not be required to perform beyond his/her current level of progress
with regard to physical conditioning, performance techniques, or level of competition.
l. An athlete will not be allowed to return to physical activity after a serious illness or injury without written permission of the athlete’s doctor. The coach, in conjunction with the athletic trainer, can override the doctor’s permission to allow participation if the coach does not believe the athlete is ready.
m. Year round conditioning is beneficial to the athlete’s health, and a vital part of any sports program for maximizing performance and minimizing injury.
n. Each high school has a Certified Athletic Trainer on staff. Certified trainers are qualified in the care of prevention of athletic injuries and are available to the athlete for help and advice.
3. If a parent has a concern involving a coach, they may follow the district’s formal Parent
Concern Policy. This policy is found on the Family and Coach Agreement.
4. Parents and school staff must be willing to fully share all information regarding the athlete’s health, including injuries, illnesses, and other symptoms, no matter how slight. Decisions regarding medical treatment are left to qualified physicians and the athletic trainer. The coach, athletic director and the athletic trainer must receive written clearance to continue participation after any physician treatment is completed.
Social Media
Parents and students should be aware of the Arizona Revised Statute (ARS 13-2916) regarding the use of social media. The statute states-It is unlawful for any person, with intent to terrify, intimidate, threaten or harass a specific person or persons, to do any of the following:
1. Direct any obscene, lewd or profane language or suggest any lewd or lascivious act to the person in an electronic communication.
2. Threaten to inflict physical harm to any person or property in any electronic communication.
3. Otherwise disturb by repeated anonymous, unwanted or unsolicited electronic communications the peace, quiet or right of privacy of the person at the place where the communications were received.
*Any student misuse of social media (facebook, twitter, instagram, etc.) may be subject to the discipline guidelines set out in the Student Rights and Responsibility Handbook.
Parent Support and Involvement
Parents of our athletes and students involved in other student activities are encouraged to become involved in our school booster club organizations. These groups are organized and run by parent boosters with the support of the school staff. Parents may contact the school administrators or the athletic director for information regarding membership or any other means the parent may wish to support the program.
DVUSD and AIA believe that interscholastic athletic competition should demonstrate high standards of ethics and sportsmanship and promote the development of good character and other important life skills. We also believe that the highest potential of sports is achieved when participants are committed to pursuing victory with honor according the six core principles: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and good citizenship, (the “Six Pillars of Character”). This Code applies to all athletes and parents of student-athletes involved in interscholastic sports.

4. Emergency Information a. A completed and signed Emergency Information Form and Athletics-Consent
for Emergency Care/Treatment are required before practice begins.
b. The coaches carry the emergency forms with them to practice and games. Parents are expected to keep the coach updated on any change in emergency information.
5. Insurance a. The Deer Valley Unified School District does not provide medical insurance for
student athletes. b. Parents must have health insurance for their student, as they are responsible for
medical bills incurred as a result of participation in athletics. Parents must
provide insurance information to assist coaches, athletic trainers, staff and medical personnel to provide or arrange medical assistance the athlete may need as a result of injury.

6. Athletic Fees and Expenses a. Athletes pay a fee of $100 for AIA athletic participation in each sport. The
maximum for an individual athlete is $200 per year. Families are maxed at $300 each year regardless of the number of individual athletic participation fees they may have. (This also includes Middle School Sports)
b. The fee helps to defray travel expenses for away events, A.I.A. dues, and other expenses.

b. Athletes and their parents/guardians must also sign the informed consent notification before participation can occur as well.
Practices
Athletes must practice with their team in order to participate in games and maintain team membership. Sometimes athletes are members of local private organizations and may practice with private coaches. It is important that the athlete know the AIA regulations relating to participation in private clubs and our requirements that the athlete maintain full membership and participation in our program. Under no circumstance may an athlete participate on one of our teams without practicing with that team. Also, team members may not participate in private club games, meets, or practices during our school teams’ season.
Transportation
Transportation to and from game sites is provided by the school district. A part of the fee paid by athletes helps to defray this expense. Athletes may not transport themselves. Parents also may not transport student athletes except in emergency situations approved by the school administration. Parents must complete the “Student Release Following an Away Contest” form in
order to take their student home. Only parents may transport their student. You will not be permitted to transport another student.
Athlete Behavior
Our administrators, teachers, and athletic staff expect athletes to demonstrate good sportsmanship and citizenship at all times. Athletes not living up to this expectation may lose team membership or playing privileges.
Parent Expectations
We expect the parents to join the staff in setting good examples. The school staff is charged with the responsibility for taking corrective steps when spectators create or contribute to fan behavior problems. We respectfully ask our parents to join in an overall effort to help make student sport participation a happy and healthy experience. In most sports, spectator bleachers are provided. We expect the fans to stay in seating areas and not interfere with the coaches’ responsibility on the court or field of play.
Team Selections
In some sports, there is a limit to the number of athletes that can be selected for the team. Our coaches have developed selection procedures which have been approved by the school principal and athletic director. Each athlete who shows up for tryouts is given a fair opportunity to demonstrate his or her skills and attitude. The decisions by the coaches are final.
High school athletic code of conduct
Definitions
1. Season of competition is defined as those weeks where regularly scheduled contests occur including any post-season play.
2. Suspension from a team, in most instances, is defined as contributing to practice and take part in any remedial conditioning prescribed by the head coach, but not being able to suit up or participate in scheduled contests. However, the decision to practice with the team will ultimately be left up to the head coach. In the event an athlete does not accept a suspension, removal will result.
3. Removal from a team, in most instances, is defined as being barred from the use of any athletic facility for the remainder of the season of competition.
Code
Academic: Any athlete who becomes ineligible due to grades will be ineligible to participate in competition until the deficiency is made up per district and AIA policy.
Alcohol/Drug Abuse (including steroids): If any athlete is discovered to be possessing and/or using alcohol or drugs during the season, that athlete will be suspended from the season of competition, consistent with Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook. A second offense will result in automatic removal from the team.
Tobacco: If any athlete is discovered using tobacco during the season, that athlete will be subject to specific school and team policies.
Quitting a Sport: Any athlete who quits a team will be denied the use of all athletic facilities until the season of competition ends, unless the head coach provides a release. Freshman will be allowed to quit a team without penalty until the season of competition begins.
Reporting Violations by Law Enforcement: Violations reported by law enforcement agencies will result in the implementation of the code.
Additional Site-Based Policies: Individual school sites/coaches may have additional athletic codes of conduct rules & consequences for their respective school or team.
Miscellaneous: It is impossible to anticipate every situation that may require disciplinary action. In general, the athlete should understand that actions which are detrimental to him/herself, and/or the high school athletic program will result in suspension and/or removal from a team.

DEER VALLEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT #97
ATHLETIC CODE OF CONDUCT
The interscholastic athletic program is an extension of the regular offerings of the high
school, and as such, the student-athlete must be considered an individual who has freely
chosen to participate in a program extending beyond the regular classroom routine. The
student-athlete must recognize that participation in athletics requires a code of conduct,
which goes beyond that of the non-athlete. Once signed, the student is subject to all rules
and regulations of the Code of Conduct for the remainder of his/her high school career. All
guidelines outlined in the district Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook as
related to the ARS, will be enforced with school consequences.
The Code of Conduct includes, but is not limited to, behaviors during public appearances
where the athlete is representing his/her school, behaviors during transportation to such an
event, behaviors during training or practice, and behaviors during any time on campus.
The athlete found in violation of these guidelines, through discovery by school staff, public
official, or student-athlete admission, he/she will be subject to additional consequences
listed below.
FIRST INFRACTION LEVEL
Use or possession of all tobacco or alcohol products requires a
suspension of 20% of the next athletic opportunities from the day the
infraction is discovered.
Use or possession of a controlled substance requires athlete to be
suspended from athletics for the remainder of that school year and may
face long-term suspension if infraction occurred on campus, at an off
campus activity, or in school vehicle.
Athletes involved in an infraction of the Student Rights and
Responsibilities as related to the ARS will be subject to a suspension
of 20% of the next athletic opportunities from the day of the infraction
is discovered.
An athletic opportunity is any single athletic contest under the
Arizona Interscholastic Association.
SECOND INFRACTION LEVEL
If the infraction occurs in the same season, the athlete will be
dismissed from the squad AND receive a suspension of 40% of the
next athletic opportunities from the day the infraction is discovered.
If an infraction occurs after the original season, the athlete will be
subject to a 40% suspension of the next athletic opportunities.
Athletes involved in an infraction of the Student Rights and
Responsibilities as related to the ARS will be subject to a suspension
of 40% of the next athletic opportunities from the day of the infraction
is discovered.
THIRD INFRACTION LEVEL
If a third infraction occurs, the athlete will incur a 365-day suspension
from all athletic opportunities from the day the infraction is
discovered.
There is an expectation that the athlete needs to complete an educational awareness
program on substance abuse within one year at the expense of the individual. Failure will
result in the athlete not being able to move back to the previous level or to the grace
period with no level.
Athletes will not fulfill their consequence by missed athletic opportunities with another
sport unless they complete the season with that sport. Failure to complete the season
requires that athletes complete consequences back to the original infraction.
If the athlete is infraction free for a period of one year, the athlete shall revert back
to the previous level.
We understand the above rules and will abide by them.
