Code of Conduct

As some of you may be aware, there have recently been a few shocking incidents involving verbal or physical altercations between parents and/or coaches in our baseball/softball community. The board has discussed and voted on measures against those involved.

Please know that only positive support of and respect for players, managers and umpires is allowed. KLL will not tolerate any behavior in violation of the Little League Code of Conduct/Pledge, including but not limited to aggressive verbal arguing, physical altercations, endangerment of children, or other behavior that is disrespectful of players, coaches, umpires or other parents. Consequences of such behavior will be punished by a minimum 2 week suspension from the park&possibly for the remainder of the year. Please help us by reporting any future incidents to a board member.

All board member email addresses and phone numbers can be found in the Volunteer Board Member section of our website. Please keep in mind the Little League Parent/Volunteer Pledge above. This important pledge is posted on our bulletin boards as well as 4 outfield banners at our park to remind us all of the positive behavior we should be showing. Little League is mostly a recreational activity with a small competitive component. It is mainly about teaching the children how to play a game as well as lessons about sportsmanship and teamwork that can be applied in other areas of life. Let’s keep this a simple and fun way to spend time with our families and neighbors.
