Good Neighbor Policy

While our program has grown to over 1,200 players and is well received by the community, the impact on the immediate neighborhoods surrounding the fields we use can be significant and detrimental. In the paragraphs that follow are some guidelines as to how you can help to mitigate the impact of our program on the neighbors of all of our fields.

Parking: Please park only in designated parking areas. Please do not block driveways, fire lanes, gates, and other marked red and yellow zones.

Speeding: Please observe posted speed limits on all neighborhood streets. In most cases, this is 25 mph. Avoid the temptation to hurry when you're running just a little late, remember, we share the area neighborhoods with a lot of small children.

Loud Music and Language: Boom-boxes, sound systems and unsportsmanlike language are not permitted at any Stateline Youth Athletics function, whether a game or a practice.

Balls Over Any Fence: Any ball over a homeowner's fence shall not be retrieved during a game or a practice. Players or parents may not climb fences. After a game or practice, a parent may request permission of the homeowner at the homeowner's front door to retrieve a ball. If permission is denied or the homeowner does not respond to the front door, the ball shall not be retrieved. Do not trespass. Trespassing is neither neighborly nor legal.

Restrooms: Please use the available restrooms or portable toilets.

Smoking: Smoking is not permitted at any Stateline Youth Athletics function, at any field or on any school grounds. It is discourteous and illegal to leave cigarette butts in the streets, on the sidewalks or in the gutters of our neighborhoods.

Trash: Use the provided receptacles for your trash. If full, take your trash home. Please do not litter the restrooms, our school grounds, fields, parking lots or our neighborhoods.

Please follow these guidelines. Ideas and thoughts you may have to mitigate our presence are encouraged.
