<sup>PRACTICE:
The Rockton Family Sports Complex is generous enough to allow us to use their facilities for our practices. However, they expect us to exercise common courtesy in return. Please read and follow these basic rules. Not following the rules may lead to your child being asked to leave the team. Clean up after yourself and your children. We are responsible for maintaining trash and cleanliness of the fields and bathrooms. Do not block any entrances/exits. There is parking on the outer perimeter of the complex. Please use this area by parking along the tree line and not parking in the middle of the fields as cheerleaders and football teams practice there. This means do not drive through the middle of the fields. Children are everywhere playing and practicing and driving through the fields is dangerous and also causes ruts in the field. Those ruts in the field are dangerous to "running football players" and cheerleaders who are doing stunts. They could incur twisted ankles or worse. Only coaches will be allowed to park on the fields in designated areas and routes.

Please keep children who are not practicing under supervision. Do not allow them on the practice field. Keep your players and cheerleaders under supervision before and after practice. We will provide portable bathrooms located near the entrance of the complex. We do not want to jeopardize losing a place to practice. You are responsible for all personal property.</sup>

^{Inclement Weather:
In case of inclement weather, games may be rescheduled and practices may be stopped suddenly. Because inclement weather is not predictable, remain at the practice fields until your child completes practice or needs to be picked up in a timely manner.}

^{Water is provided at all games. A water cooler is available at practice. Anything else is provided by you and decided by each team individually.}

^{Game Day:
All players will be required to be at the game in uniform earlier than game time (approx. 45 minutes-1 hour). Each child is required to come to the game in full uniform, if not they will not be able to play. Coming early allows time for traffic, unexpected delays, and warming-up, etc. Please make sure you arrive at the park or school at the designated time given by your coach. Sometimes parks or schools will be behind schedule which is beyond our control, but other times they may be on schedule and if you show 10 minutes before the game starts, your son will not get appropriate warming up and stretching time which can lead to injuries.}  

^{PARENTAL ASSISTANCE:
At some point during the season, you will be asked to help out. There are plenty of ways to help and everyone is expected to volunteer in some way. Ways of assistance are: maintenance on our fields, working the concession stand, working chain crew on the field for your child's game, announcing your child's game. Each parent is expected to take a turn volunteering in some capacity. Rest assured that all involved will appreciate your time and effort including your child, coach and team.}

^{COMMUNICATION, CALLING POST/EMAILS:
So often we have children move, go on vacation, or other issues happen and we do not get updated information. Please make sure that we have a good telephone number and e-mail address so that we can provide important information to all parents for those "just in case" moments. The Roscoe/Rockton Lions and Junior Indians will place information on the website www.rrlfootball.com to notify you of upcoming dates, changes in practices or games, or any other pertinent information that your coach wants to inform you about. Each coach will have their own web page to communicate with their teams and this can be located on the Roscoe/Rockton Lions and Junior Indians home web page.}
