  • Cheering with class. Be a good sport. Be gracious in victory and accept defeat with dignity.
  • Not encouraging unsportsmanlike conduct toward players, coaches, and officials.
  • Encouraging your team regardless of their play.
  • Treat all competitors fairly. Don’t show excessive displays of anger or frustration. Have the strength to overcome the temptation to demean others.

 

Cavalier Fans WILL:
