In response to Coachs first birthday address....I would like to submit a Code of Practice.
Some may be tongue in cheek....other very serious..........but let me start.
Rules
#1 . Be a member. NO matter what your situation. Out of town, international...just make sure you are a member.
#2. When not on game days...and you see another member...be it they are wearing a cap or a shirt...greet them with...."May the Force be with you"....or if they have a sticker on their car....make sure you wave.
#3 Wear blue to the game...if you cant have an official jersey/top...wear the blue...(and not that powder puff blue of the tahs)
#4 (one I feel strong about) Welcome the coach (Mitch that is) when he and his staff walk to the coaching box before the game.
#5 Yell your hearts out when the Force run onto the field.....and after the game...no matter what the result....stay behind if you can and clap them all off....they deserve it.
#6 Be generous in your applause for efforts of our opposition..but not too generous.....and make sure their supporters are treated with courtesy....remember there are a number of our members who have dual loyalities....teams of your birthplace may still be your team....you never know...next week they may be sitting next to you cheering for the Force again.
#7 Respect the officials.....the referees and touch judges have a job to do...as in life...we all make mistakes....if they do...then like us we should accept the decision and move on.
#8 At all times be a responsible supporter.....we are wearing the colours of our team and are all ambassadors...drink responsibly....and if you get drunk...be a nice drunk...
#9 Support the people who support the Force......the sponsors believe in the Force...as do we.....if at all possible use their services.
#10 When in the Forum be respectful of other users and their views and if you make a comment make sure its something of substance and adds value to the experience of others. Remember we have guests who look at us again as ambassadors of our game and our team.
Well thats my thoughts.....feel free to add comments, suggestions etc and maybe we can knock into shape our ideals...
