As winter sports move the crowds indoors, do your coaches, families and staff know what’s expected—and what happens when someone crosses the line?

Join Casey Fisk, Athletic Director at Scott High School in Kentucky, and host Jen Motze, CMAA, for a practical conversation about establishing expectations for communication and behavior, preparing for game night and navigating difficult parent concerns.

We’ll explore how ADs can put the purpose of education-based athletics into practice: helping students learn teamwork, accountability and respect while giving the adults around them clear expectations to reinforce.

What you’ll walk away with

  • A clearer definition of sportsmanship and program culture. Connect the values you want students to learn with the everyday behaviors you expect from coaches, families and staff.
  • Ways to set expectations before problems arise. Share standards early through preseason meetings and parent communication, and reinforce them throughout the season.
  • Steps to prepare your game-night team. Clarify who responds to inappropriate behavior, involve student leaders and follow through consistently afterward.
  • An approach to parent concerns that your school can reinforce. Establish a communication chain, get administrative support and determine next steps when concerns escalate or move onto social media.

Hear experiences and approaches you can adapt before your next home game.
