Miami Jr. NBA Basketball League

The Miami Jr. NBA Basketball League is committed to providing a positive, safe, and respectful environment for all players, coaches, officials, and families. Parents and spectators play a critical role in setting the tone for youth sports.

By registering a child in the league, parents and guardians agree to abide by the following Code of Conduct.

? EXPECTATIONS OF PARENTS & GUARDIANS

Parents and guardians are expected to:

  • Encourage good sportsmanship, effort, and teamwork

  • Support all players, not just their own child

  • Allow coaches to coach and officials to officiate

  • Communicate respectfully with league staff at all times

  • Follow all league and facility rules

? SIDELINE BEHAVIOR

To maintain a positive game-day environment:

  • ❌ No sideline coaching or directing players

  • ❌ No arguing with referees, coaches, or staff

  • ❌ No negative comments toward players, officials, or opposing teams

  • ✔ Applaud effort, improvement, and sportsmanship

Parents who interfere with game play or instruction will be asked to stop immediately.

?‍⚖️ RESPECT FOR OFFICIALS & STAFF
