Players Code

We play soccer to have fun, to learn and develop a passion for the game as well as improve our skills. Yet, as a soccer player, we also have responsibility to our team, team mates, coaches, and Berryessa Chinese School. We are representatives of the BCS as well as the team, coaches, parents, and the Chinese community in general. We must maintain a high level of sportsmanship before, during, and after each games and practices.

• Be on time and prepare for matches and practice sessions.

• Work hard at practices and to follow the instruction from coaches and team staffs.
