Player conduct on the field in practices and games. 

1. Soccer is a physical sport, and sometimes requires physical contact with opposite team and teammates during practice to gain control of ball. At times during practice physical contact is needed to show ways to defend and control the ball.  It is referee/coach discretion to let the game be played or issue warnings to players for being too physical. 
2. Any player that is involved in an altercation with another player resulting in a fight which punches are thrown, during a game is automatic red card and 2 game suspension per NWISL.  If a fight happens during practice, whoever is involved will be sent home, and issued 1 game suspension from Bearcat Soccer League and possibly removal from Bearcat Soccer Club program. Fighting is not part of soccer and is not ever accepted!!
3. Players will not use profanity during practice or games. If a player uses profanity during a game, the player can receive a red card by the referee. If used during practice warning will be issued, 2nd offense player will be sent home.
